Silicone Formulations Leverage customization opportunities for fully formulated silicone solutions that shorten development cycles and streamline operations for medical equipment components. Some of the information arises from laboratory work with small-scale equipment which may not provide a reliable indication of performance or properties obtained or obtainable on larger-scale equipment.

CYCLE TIME REDUCER

GREEN QUALA LOW CYCLE 10166601

Reduces cycle times, maximizes throughput, and lowers operating costs

Offering good flow properties and faster cycle times, the Dynalloy portfolio can be easily colored for use in a variety of applications, whether extruded, injection molded or extrusion blow molded.

Long fiber composites can withstand over twenty times more bending flexural  cycles in displacement scenarios than equivalent short fiber compounds.

Vibration Damping Technologies: Versaflex™ VDT thermoplastic elastomers reduce appliance vibration and ‘walking’ when used in anti-vibration feet for top load washing machines, and can be overmolded to help eliminate secondary processes and reduce cycle time

In addition, Versaflex™ CE TPE is ideal for high-volume production and offers faster cycle times than TPU or silicone.  

Avient conducted virtual prototyping, such as mold filling and finite element analysis (FEA), on a redesigned yoke, while Bettcher conducted testing on a physical prototype to simulate a half million use cycles.

Cycle time reducers can increase your production capacity without any additional equipment investment
