Swiss company Netstal is a global supplier of high-precision, high-speed plastic injection moulding machines with clamping forces of 500 to 8000kN. Since 1992, the Netstal brand has been a trademark of the KraussMaffei Group. As part of the KraussMaffei Group, Netstal has been producing injection moulding machines and manufacturing systems for the rapid and high-precision production of thin-walled plastic parts for the packaging industry for many decades.
Netstal's headquarters are located in Näfels in the Canton of Glarus. An area of about 72,000m² houses state-of-the-art production and assembly systems, office spaces for development, design, marketing and administration as well as spacious facilities for customer service, training and application technology.
For the PET applications Netstal offer a product portfolio tailored to customer requirements. Their focus is
- Production efficiency
- Material cost
- Shortest cycle times
- Top parts quality
- Energy efficiency
- Development of system solutions for PET preforms
- Platform strategy: system sizes to match individual customer requirements
Products / Technology
The PET-Line and PETForm production systems for the manufacture of PET preforms enjoy a high market share, which can be attributed to their high performance capacity and the outstanding reproducibility of the applications produced. You are optimized for maximum performance and have the latest and most innovative technology at your disposal. The result is top reproducibility with the shortest cycle times and efficient energy consumption that leads to the lowest production costs.
PET-Line (Netstal)
- Robust construction: The solid construction ensures extremely high preform precision and reproducibility with all mould sizes. Excellent cycle times Rapid mechanized operations and optimum coordination of the machine and its peripheral equipment yield the shortest cycle times. High reproducibility Absolute weight constancy, first-class surface structures and minimal reject rate: All of these factors contribute to high process reproducibility.
- Higher injection rate and gentle material processing: The redesigned injection unit now reaches a system pressure of 250 bar, which results in increased injection pressure and significantly shorter injection times. Based on rheological calculations, it was possible to optimize the entire melt flow and ensure very gentle material preparation in order to guarantee improved melt quality.
- Energy efficiency: It is anticipated that energy costs will continue to rise in the future. In addition to the material costs, the share of energy costs will become the second most important cost factor. Innovative Netstal strives to develop systems and solutions that guarantee optimum energy efficiency teamed with top productivity: true to the motto "less energy, more efficiency".
PETform (Krauss-Maffei)
- Vertical clamping unit delivers long-term precision The vertical clamping design ensures extremely high plate parallelism and minimizes wear of molds with up to 112 cavities.
- Immediate post-cooling for shorter cycles With its lock-to-lock time of only 2.0 seconds, the PETForm clamping system is a leading high-performance PET unit. 85% of the required cooling takes place in the separate 4-stage post-cooling station. This results in significantly lowered cycle times and high output performance.
- Optimized removal process – lowered energy consumption Thanks to the lightweight gripper unit, high process speeds can be achieved with minimal clamping movement. This in turn minimizes energy requirements and production costs.
- For 16 to 112 cavities The modular design of the two clamping units with clamping forces of 1,750 kN and 3,500 kN, combined with corresponding plasticizing units, make this the optimum system for any application scenario.
- Special screw geometries for rapid melting.
- Colour pigments, blockers or other blends can be added homogeneously at high throughputs without subjecting the melt to unnecessary shear forces.
- Compact design
