Elevate Plastics Quality with Kawasaki Precision Gear Pumps

Elevate Plastics Quality with Kawasaki Precision Gear Pumps

Kawasaki precision gear pumps deliver constant, high-pressure, positive-displacement flow tailored for demanding plastics applications. Engineers machine hardened alloy gears to sub-micron tolerances inside robust cast-iron housings. As the drive shaft spins, gear teeth trap molten polymer at the inlet and drive it through the outlet port in a steady, pulsation-free stream. That precise action ensures repeatable volumetric displacement, so injection molders and extrusion specialists hit their targets every cycle.

In injection molding, technicians dial in shot weight and cavity fill rates by adjusting pump speed. Kawasaki pumps sustain volumetric efficiency at pressures up to 5,000 psi, helping molders control melt-front velocity, reduce flow-line defects, and eliminate sink marks. When processors switch from polypropylene to glass-filled nylons, the pumps adapt instantly to viscosity shifts and temperature swings. That reliability underpins dimensional accuracy in high-precision parts such as medical device housings, optical lenses, and microfluidic components.

Extrusion lines benefit equally when Kawasaki gear pumps isolate screw speed from die pressure. Placing a pump downstream of a twin-screw extruder lets operators suppress melt surging and stabilize downstream film, sheet, or pipe production. Programmable drives let floor engineers tweak flow rates on the fly, maintaining throughput within a few percent of setpoints during long production runs. Plants see fewer temperature spikes and extended screen-pack and die life by decoupling metering from melt generation.

Filled or abrasive resins pose a serious wear challenge, but Kawasaki gears resist scoring and fatigue. Their carburized or nitrided surfaces and replaceable hardened bushings stand up to glass fibers, mineral fillers, and regrind. Thanks to a pull-apart housing design, maintenance crews swap gear sets, seals, and bearings in under an hour. That quick service cuts downtime, minimizes scrap, and boosts overall equipment effectiveness.

Process automation teams integrate Kawasaki pump drives with PLC and SCADA systems to continuously capture flow, pressure, and temperature data. Analysts mine that trace data to refine processing recipes and schedule predictive maintenance before wear impacts quality. When a pump drifts outside tolerance, software triggers alarms and auto-adjusts parameters, protecting against off-spec production and unplanned stoppages.

Plastics processors around the globe have improved part consistency, tightened tolerances, and extended equipment life by deploying Kawasaki precision gear pumps in molding and extrusion operations. They trust these pumps to uphold the exacting standards of packaging, automotive trim, medical devices, and flexible films. Kawasaki precision gear pumps stand represented in New England by Andruss Peskin Corp. (AP Corp.), providing regional application expertise, technical training, and rapid aftermarket support to keep every pump performing at peak precision and reliability.

Industrial Infrared Temperature Measurement


Industrial Infrared Temperature Measurement

Industrial infrared temperature measurement has revolutionized how professionals monitor heat in countless processes, from heavy manufacturing to delicate laboratory work. Optris, a global leader in this field, develops infrared thermometers, pyrometers, and thermal imaging cameras that quickly capture accurate temperature data from a safe distance. These instruments rely on the principle that every object above absolute zero emits infrared radiation. The amount and spectrum of this radiation change with temperature, allowing IR sensors to convert the captured energy into precise temperature readings.

Engineers often use the concept of blackbody radiation to explain infrared temperature measurements. Objects at different temperatures emit characteristic infrared wavelengths, and specialized detectors translate those wavelengths into voltage signals. Optris calibrates its devices using reference temperatures to ensure high accuracy and repeatability. Their IR thermometers and pyrometers focus on a specific spot and measure the IR emission from that region. At the same time, their infrared cameras gather information from a wider field of view to generate complete thermal images.

Many industries value these non-contact measurement tools because they deliver almost instantaneous feedback. Manufacturers of glass, metals, and plastics rely on Optris sensors to monitor extreme temperatures in continuous production lines. The glass industry often measures the surface temperature of molten glass and cooled products to detect anomalies and maintain product uniformity. Metal processors benefit from real-time heat monitoring during forging or heat treatment, improving product quality and conserving energy. Plastic molding requires close observation of part and mold temperatures to prevent warping and to ensure a consistent finish.

Optris cameras also help technicians spot thermal irregularities in high-density electrical systems. Overheating circuit boards or power modules are bright hotspots in a thermal image, and operators can intervene immediately to avoid failures. In 3D printing, engineers watch the temperature distribution on layers of molten material to refine the printing process and create more substantial final parts. Optris sensors also appear in fire safety applications, where early detection of elevated temperatures in waste disposal sites or bulk storage areas gives operators a head start in preventing catastrophic fires.

Infrared technology is valuable because it measures temperature without disturbing the target material. Operators minimize downtime by diagnosing issues or optimizing processes without shutting down equipment. The versatility and reliability of Optris devices reflect years of dedication to thermal measurement research and development. Industrial customers trust these products to help them reduce costs, enhance quality, and maintain safer work environments. By capturing infrared radiation from any target and converting it into accurate temperature data, Optris drives process optimization for some of the world’s most demanding applications.
