EDITOUR 25 PET planet Insider Vol. 19 A blocked Sacmi plant with a capacity of 44,000bph for the CSD “ICE” pro- ject is currently under construction. A new facility has been built next door which means that a production area of 179,000 sq. feet is now availa- ble to Fluid Forms. Preform machines are operated there. Given that Robert has worked for Husky for many years, it is no surprise that two Husky machines are used there. However, Sipa XForm has been introduced in the facility as a third injec- tion moulding system which, for the last two months, has been producing preforms using 72 cavity tools. “I was sceptical in the beginning, especially about the toggle clamp, but as we did our initial feasibility study and actual production we are more then pleased with our decision. In particular, the quality of Sipa’s service is better than a small producer could possibly imagine”, said Robert. www. uidforms.net The new pride of the team: Sipa XForm Via Scodoncello n° 41/E - 43044 Collecchio (PR) - Italy - Tel.: +39 0521 541011 Everything and more... cooperating together All the solutions for PET bottles & for handling every type of plastic containers Design, construction & installation of: " " LANFRANCHI S.r.l. www.lanfranchi.it innovation plastic container !
