A Look Back at NPE 2024 with Vortec!
The first week of May was an exciting one for the Plastics Industry as the long awaited return of the National Plastics Expo made its debut. With more than 51,000 attendees from over 110 countries representing every industry—from automotive to healthcare to consumer products to construction and more, NPE 2024 was one for the books.
Vortec co-exhibited products for the Plastics Industry in the Pillar Technologies booth in the West Hall. The Pillar Technologies booth showcased their corona surface treater that promote adhesion to surfaces when printing, coating, or laminating for the plastics industry. While Vortec showcased some of our cooling technology that is essential in the Plastics Industry. This year at NPE we showcased:
Vortec Cooling Vest
Workers in extreme temperatures wear Vortec Cooling Vests (VCVs) to stay cool by minimizing heat stress and fatigue. The VCV's improve comfort and productivity.
Vortex A/C Enclosure Cooler
Enclosure Coolers keep Electrical and Electronic Enclosures cool, clean and protected and are a low-cost alternative to expensive, high-maintenance air conditioners; and avoid contamination with dirty, humid air caused by fans.
While our sister company, Pillar Technologies exhibited the following products:
With it’s compact and portable design, the LabJet is ideal for research and development labs to determine watt density for different dyne levels.
Converters can have the best of all available surface treatment equipment configurations by implementing the Pillar Universal station. This advanced technology features a patented design of easily interchangeable magazines and ground rolls to allow operation as a bare roll (conductive substrates); covered roll (non-conductive substrates);or dual-dielectric (delicate substrates) system.
Our Blown Film Station is an economical and easy-to use cast and blown film extrusion system designed with operators in mind. It’s easy to install and quick to start up, with an easy-thread, “drop through” split box design so operators can thread the web through the station in seconds.
The P7000 Power Supply is the most versatile power supply series available on the market today. This compact unit incorporates both the IGBT technology and a proprietary control circuit design that enables instant and efficient “true” power.
Additionally, Pillar Technologies Business Unit Manager, Tyler Derus, presented “Making It Stick: Using Watt Density to Optimize Adhesion” on the Innovation Stage. In this presentation, they discussed the fundamentals of corona treatment and its crucial role in enabling quality adhesion on plastic films. Whether a seasoned professional or new to the field, this presentation included practical knowledge to improve your production and new product development processes.
