At the Kuhne facility in St. Augustin, Germany, the Extrusion specialist will open its doors for an exclusive open house just before and on th efirst day of the K show on 26 and 27 October 2010.

 

At the Open house Danish special compounder Melitek will demonstrate benefits of its latest generation of materials for medical applications. Kuhne will show a medical tube extrusion line that will be running Meliflex XT materials for non-PVC medical tubing applications.

American Kuhne will feature a running tubing extrusion line including its newest generation medical extruder. This extruder is modular in design such that barrels and screws can be quickly changed for fast product change-over or to change the barrel/screw diameter and/or L/D. This extruder also includes the company's latest AKcess touch screen control system.  The die on this line will be a Guill Tool spiral-flow crosshead with feather touch concentricity adjustment. The extrusion line will be running with a LaserLinc ID/OD/Wall gauge and control system as well as Conair Medvac precision vacuum sizer and Medline Taper Tube puller/cutter.

St. Augustin is only a 50 minutes drive away from the K fairground in Düsseldorf.
