Fluid Analysis for the Plastics Industry
“Helps you monitor and extend the useful life of your equipment.”
The plastics industry produces semi-finished products (inputs for other industries) and finished plastic products for final consumption: packaging, construction materials, electronics, medicine, and more. Injection molding requires precise control of the hydraulic system with micrometric precision. An unsuitable lubricant or one with particle contamination outside ISO 4406 requirements creates failures in mold closure, generating material losses and rework.
A great variety of processes and machinery are used in plastics (injection, compression, rotation, blowing, extrusion), making fluid analysis essential for ensuring operational continuity. Tribo-Labs® monitors hydraulic fluids and lubricants to ensure process quality and continuity.
