IndexSB: a unique approach to bottle production
Bolton, Ontario, Canada — Using Husky Injection Molding Systems’ patented Index technology, the new IndexSB delivers faster preform cycle times than competitive one-step machines. The result is higher output for the same number of cavities. The system’s versatility allows molders to produce a broad range of container shapes and sizes ranging from 25 ml to 5 litres on a single machine.

Micropitch™ mold technology increases preform output
Bolton, Ontario, Canada – Husky Injection Molding Systems has introduced two new Micropitch molds. The 144 cavity mold will be on display at K 2001. Husky’s new 72 cavity molds are already in production at customer sites. The design of these new molds allows mold cavitation to be increased in 300 and 600 ton machines. Increasing cavitation is one of the most effective ways of increasing output while reducing preform costs.

New system inspects and verifies preform quality
Bolton, Ontario, Canada — Husky Injection Molding Systems and Pressco Technology Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio, USA, have partnered to develop an integrated system that will inspect and verify every molded preform. The jointly developed system will allow molders to quantify key production variables such as reduction in scrap, down-time and associated product handling expenses. In addition, the system will provide such intangible benefits as objective inspection results, early identification and correction of defects, consistent product quality and a tool for predictive maintenance.
