LIT Factory Research and industry moving closer together

In June, the official opening of the LIT Open Innovation Center and the LIT Factory in Linz took place. The goal of the Open Innovation Center is to bring research, business and industry closer together. We are a member of the consortium, along with other well-known companies. The LIT Factory is not only a learning center for further education, but also a showroom and pilot plant.

The LIT factory is equipped with a motan drying, conveying and gravimetric dosing & mixing system, which supports two Engel injection molding machines. In addition, the plant also has numerous other motan products from the areas drying, conveying, control, dosing & mixing. motan’s new loss-in-weight SPECTROPLUS unit with four dosing modules for granulate and a weighed collection bin is a key component of the system and was put through its paces in the LIT factory.

mo explains: " Injection molding produces sprues that can immediately be turned into regrind and reused. This makes sense because it saves money and protects the environment. If the initial material needs to be dried it can save even more money as regrind does not usually need to be dried if it is being reused immediately. Are you interested in more questions regarding plastics manufacturing and processing"?
