Innovation at display during Plastindia 2006
Mar,2006

Touching the roof of the Hall, the 15 m high seven layer blown film plant was the talk of the Show. Overall Rajoo made a major impact at the Show through magnificent display at the Stand and around the Show ground with splashes of the now well recognized Rajoo logo in red.

Fully supported by representatives of various European and American automation systems suppliers at the Stand, Rajoo established its capability to integrate world class systems in the Indian design and manufactured sophisticated seven layer blown film line.

The seven layer blown film line operated smoothly on four days of the show, producing both nylon and EVOH based barrier films and LD / LLD based lamination grade films. The fully automated surface / gap / center 2100 mm width winder producing 1000 mm dia rolls with automatic roll changer over established the top of the class design.

Christened - Multifoil RECF 2760-55 / 2100 IBC - the seven layer line with 2 x 60 mm grooved feed extruders (inner and outer layer) and rest 5 x 55 mm smooth bore extruders was equipped with the 500 mm INverted COnical Spiral Stack type die (INCOSS?). The high output plant (550 kg/hr for non-barrier films and 350 kg/hr for barrier films) used an ultrasonic sensor based IBC system from D. R. Joseph of U.S.A. The plant was fully loaded with the highest level of automation ever witnessed by the Asian industry.

Multi-component conveying and gravimetric dosing system for Doteco, Italy and an Automatic Air Ring (Smartlip) with capacitative thickness sensor from Octagon, Germany and B & R processor based integrated computerized supervisory control system. Incorporating Corona treatment from the best manufacturer in the world - Sherman of U.K. and Digital Center Line based web guiding system with width measurement from BST Sayona. A confirmation of world class suppliers' confidence in the capabilities of Rajoo by leading their established brand names to Rajoo.

Also on display was a 1.2 m dia three layer INCOSS? die with a matching Dual Lip Air Ring for a wide width three layer plant to produce film for bulk packaging - container liners, woven sack liners.... Yet once again, a first for the Asian industry.

With the ever increasing market acceptance of PP as compared to PS for disposable containers, Rajoo took another step forward in technology - a monolayer Sheet Line with 90 mm extruder for PP using 50% regrind - an output of 230 kg/hr. Sheet Line incorporated a Maag Melt Pump and a continuous Diverter type automatic screen changer and thickness monitoring system from Folitec, Germany. Clarity and precise thickness control was very well appreciated by visitors.

To go hand in hand with the Sheet Line was a Thermoformer, acknowledged the best thermoformer in the industry today. With minimum mechanical parts, the hydraulically operated, computer programmable Thermoformer used a 21 cavity mould operating at 25 strokes / minute producing nearly 30000 glasses per hour.

The visitors to the Show did acknowledge that the Indian plastics industry has come of age and Rajoo is leading from the front in the plastic processing machinery sector. A matter of immense pride for the Asian industry.
