PowerPurge: A System For Cleaning hard to remove Resins
 

Until now, injection molders' options were limited to two basic choices: spend costly time manually cleaning the equipment or use purging chemicals that never quite seem to do a complete job.

Spirex has introduced PowerPurge: A System for cleaning hard to remove resins, an automatic, self-cleaning injection unit for rapid resin and color transitions without the need to pull screws. The Powerpurge Valve is a three-piece design consisting of a retainer body and check ring with PowerPurge lock. These components are made from wear-resistant tool steels. The valve functions as a normal non-return valve with good repeatability over a variety of resins while also providing the mechanism required to perform automatic self-cleaning.

Features and benefits of PowerPurge:
100% acceptable parts from the first shot
Eliminates Color streaking & removes tough carbon deposits
High scrubbing capability with very low residue deposits
Eliminates costly screw & barrel disassembly and cleaning time; Greatly reducing down time.
Significantly reduces part scrap due to rapid color change
Near zero production time lost
Safe & easy to use with virtually any resin
Can be incorporated into injection machine control for automated operation

PowerPurge is a truly automated system providing a completely effective one-two combination featuring a unique, patent-pending PowerPurge Valve and specially formulated PowerPurge Compound.Powerpurge Compound is a low residue/high purging force proprietary formulation that can be used over a wide resin temperature range to deliver superior purging performance. Its benefits include a very high efficiency/volume ratio, maximum cleaning with less volume of compound used. It also leaves very low residue to minimize scrap produced after purging.
