Improved Thermoforming Machinery

MAAC has integrated several new standards into its thermoforming machinery.
All machines have been redesigned with even larger main-frames and structural components. Platen structures, speeds and higher pressures have also been enhanced for the increasing demand for higher pressures.

All Electric Machines; All MAAC’s incorporate new variable speed motor driven platen & lift table drives. All rotaries come standard with variable speed electric index drives for longer lasting, faster and more precise machine operation. All motors are equipped with absolute encoders allowing operators to store all settings for each product they manufacture.

• A new TEC 480-oven control system was developed together with Siemens. The solid-state, 480-volt device expands the operator’s ability to perform remote diagnostics, such as pinpointing defective fuses and heater elements. This system saves oven component space by 50% and greatly reduces any maintenance.
• A new swing arm (flat panel-Liquid Crystal Display screen) console, with updated Windows based controls allows the operator more space and more control of the machines functions.
• The new adjustable clampframes reduce set up time to 5 minutes per station, with no tools required. It also eliminates the need to “line-up” clampframes with every tool. This feature greatly reduces machine downtime and can be retrofitted to any make of machinery.
• Variety of optional quick mold change features to reduce set up times and increase production time.
