The Bush Automatic Press Machine ordered by the Indian customer on site has completed the equipment commissioning

The Indian customer purchased an Bush Automatic Press Machine. Our engineers went to india to know the equipment installation. The installation process was very smooth and the equipment production quality was good.

The commissioning process was smooth, and the equipment was running well during the trial run. Our company also provided customers with recycled raw materials for testing, saving customers unnecessary waste during trial operation. Our engineers also provide guidance and training to the technical staff of the customer, and the customer is very satisfied with our service.

We have three types of automatic molding machines.
Can produce the following specifications:
1, gasket: maximum outer diameter 70Mm, thickness 7mm, 1500 / hour.
2, large gasket: maximum outer diameter of 350mm, thickness of 10mm, 400-900 / hour.
3, molded tube / rod: maximum outer diameter 110mm, length 110mm. 200-400 / hour.

What’s the Difference Between Polymers and Plastics

Polymers and Plastics are encountered in everyday life and used for a variety of purposes. A large number of everyday household items are comprised of plastics and polymers. If someone asked you on the spot to explain the differences between polymer vs plastic, would you be able to give a cohesive answer? Today we discuss the straight forward differences between the two, provide some everyday use examples of plastics and polymers, and list the pros and cons of each.

The key difference between polymers and plastics is that plastic is a specific type of polymer. Plastics are comprised of a long chain of polymers, where polymers are composed of smaller, uniform molecules.

What Are Polymers?

Polymers are lengthy chain compounds composed of monomers. A monomer is a molecule that can be bonded to other identical molecules. Polymers are basically enormous molecules made with a massive amount of smaller, identical molecules. Polymers have a different physical and chemical makeup than their monomers, and more uniquely, their properties can be tailored depending on their main purpose. There are several types of polymers. Addition polymers are formed when the monomers form double bonds with the given carbon atoms. Condensation polymers are produced when two monomers are joined and the water molecule is removed. There are also naturally occurring and man-made polymers.

Polymer Applications

• Lubricants
• Adhesives
• Films
• Paints
• Fibers

Pros

• Cheap to make
• Versatile
• Sometimes recyclable

Cons

• Made from oil
• Gives off toxic fumes when burned
• Types that can’t be recycled increase recycling expenses

What Are Plastics?

Plastics are semi-organic materials that come from oil or petroleum. They are routinely labeled as polymers, as they are comprised of polymers. Plastics are produced by condensation and addition polymerization reactions. They are classified either as thermosetting polymers or thermoplastic polymers. Thermosetting polymers solidify into a permanent design and shape. Thermoplastic polymers can be heated and remolded for an unlimited amount of time.

Plastic Applications

• Containers
• Toys
• Sporting goods
• Automotive parts
• Aerospace parts

Pros

• Extremely versatile
• Flexible
• Durable
• Translucent (can be a suitable substitute for glass)

Cons

• Some types can’t be recycled
• Production and elimination emits chemicals harmful to environment

Electronics and medical applications help PTFE glide to global growth

Home cooks who enjoy conveniently sliding eggs out of a pan know all about Teflon’s non-stick properties. But Teflon’s applications go well beyond cookware, and growth in several industries is driving global demand for the material.

Teflon is the Chemours (Wilmington, DE) brand name for polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE). The material offers resistance to solvents and flames, a high melting point, strength and the non-stick properties that home cooks know well. A 2016 Zion Research (Pune, India) report projected that the global PTFE market, valued at $4 billion in 2014, would grow to $6.5 billion by 2020.

PTFE demand is rising as consumers buy more electronic products that use the material, according to Zion. The Asia-Pacific region comprised the largest market for the material in 2014, followed by Europe. Besides electronics, PTFE is found in automotive parts, chemical processing, textiles and medical products.

Medical uses of PTFE are booming, according to Bruce Nesbitt, founder and Chairman of Orion Technologies, a Chicago-based applicator of Teflon coatings. PTFE can coat a range of materials, a versatility that makes it useful on many medical devices. PTFE is increasingly found on products that incorporate handles or attachments that help clinicians manipulate the device, Nesbitt said. Devices that use PTFE include dental drills, guidewires that steer devices through the body and medical tubing.

“Any two components that slide together, such as a metal tube and plastic housing, can benefit from the Teflon coating on either or both sliding surfaces,” Nesbitt said.  

The growing medical applications of PTFE led Orion to spin off a separate company called Surface Solutions Group. The firm can apply medical-grade coatings that further reduce friction, as well as incorporate antimicrobials to meet the sterility requirements of medical device makers. The more critical the end use, such as applications in aircraft and medical devices, the more stringent the test requirements, Nesbitt said.

“Medical, by far, is the tightest,” he said. “Military and aircraft is somewhat behind that . . . automotive is quickly bringing up the rear.”
