ECO Plus: Preformers & Extruders

ECO Plus: Preformers & Extruders

The ECO Plus is a premium model which has all the features of the standard ECO but gives the processor greater flexibility for bespoke requirements and enhanced usability due to simpler controls. Set-up is also quicker as it has a 2000 product database and an auto cycle option. It also provides faster operation.

Featuring PLC control with a touch screen operator’s control panel, the ECO Plus adds a new dimension to automatic preforming.

Once an initial setup is stored in the database flash memory, the operator has easy recall to each product, and the ECO Plus automatically sets the correct operating parameters. The operator then simply samples the preforms on the connected weigh scale. If the weight is not in tolerance, the machine will automatically adjust the cutter speed to meet the correct requirement, minimising the chance for human error and the need for supervision.
