Our scope of supply extends to:
Adiabatic Cooling
Every day, huge quantities of fresh water are consumed through the use of traditional evaporative systems for the heat dissipation of industrial processes (cooling towers). The increasing shortage of water resources, the difficulty in finding them and the constantly increasing costs are pushing the industry towards this new technology, able to save up to 95% of water: adiabatic cooling. This technology also provides greater efficiency in heat transfer, reduced maintenance and the total absence of polluting chemical agents.Over 8,000 systems installed in each climate zone.
Portable Chillers
or decades, the central cooling system has been the most common solution for industrial process cooling. It is also known that these systems have a strong impact in terms of productivity, running costs and environment. The machine-side chillers, compact units designed specifically to serve each process independently, guarantee precise and efficient cooling, also providing greater stability during the process phases. They are used in various industrial sectors such as: injection, blow molding and extrusion of plastic materials, metals injection, processing and bottling of beverages, chemical, pharmaceutical and other processes.
Over 35,000 units installed worldwide (Microgel).
Water Temperature Control Units
The temperature control units are used in industrial applications where temperature control is important (up to 300 °C/570 °F). They are able to guarantee: high precision, working stability, improvement of the characteristics of the finished product and a general increase in productivity thanks to the reduction of waste. They find application in various industrial sectors such as: injection, blowing and extrusion of plastic materials, injection of metals, chemical, pharmaceutical and other industrial processes.
Air Cooled Chillers
Whether you need to supply chilled water to a single process or build a high-power refrigeration plant for an entire plant, air cooled package industrial chillers are the most common solution for simplicity, reliability and efficiency. These chillers are the most requested solution in many industrial sectors including: plastic, food and beverage, chemical, pharmaceutical, metallurgical, ceramic, galvanic, data center, etc.
Modular Chillers
The “plug & play” concept of modular chillers are specifically designed to build systems consisting of multiple units, capable of reaching high cooling capacities.
The two configurations are:
- Modular centralized cooling systems: single units connected in parallel to build up and eventually increase the refrigeration capacity
- Cascade cooling systems: individual units connected in series designed for cooling thermal loads at high ΔTs (thermal drops), capable of achieving energy efficiency unattainable by single-stage refrigeration systems
Pumping Stations and Accessories
HIGH EFFICIENCY HYDRAULIC SYSTEMS
Plug & play and expandable solution.
The design, correct sizing and installation of pumping stations, storage tanks and filtration systems are essential for the proper functioning of a refrigeration system. Engineered systems, pre-assembled and tested in the factory, are the ideal solution to simplify and speed up assembly and commissioning of the system, also in view of future expansions.
Digital Control Devices
From simple remote control of the operating parameters of the cooling system to the real–time acquisition of the energy consumption of each component, digital control systems must be able to manage data quickly and accurately, thanks to increasingly efficient solutions able to integrate with the corporate infrastructure, in line with the needs of the new Industry 4.0.
Digital Control Devices
Post-molding closures cooling units.
Cap Cooler is a unit specifically designed for uniform post-cooling of the caps and to guarantee dimensional stability after molding and before handling. The innovative cooling system results in constant quality, drastically reducing ovalization and deformation of the caps. 2 models are available up to a capacity of 70,000 caps/hour or higher.
Air dehumidifier for mold booths.
Mold Dryer is an air dehumidifier used mainly to prevent the formation of condensation on the surface of the molds, due to the use of low temperature cooling. The air dehumidifiers guarantee optimal working conditions to increase production and reduce waste caused by condensation The system is mainly applied in the packaging sectors:
- Extrusion blow molding
- Injection blow molding
- Injection molding
Integrated Cascade Refrigeration System
The refrigeration of industrial processes has a very important impact on operating costs. Cascade refrigeration takes full advantage for processes characterized by high temperature differentials, allowing the cooling stages to work with highest evaporation temperatures, thus increasing energy efficiency by up to 50%.

Side Gating
The tip gate including side gating is the most commonly used gating method. Acceptable for crystalline and amorphous materials, this gating method relies on gate diameter, gate area cooling, and temperature control at the tip to optimize the part quality. Tip gating or side gating leaves a small mark on the molded part surface (gate vestige)
The size of this mark is directly related to the gate geometry and material properties. The less notch sensitive the thermoplastic, or the larger the gate diameter, the more the vestige will protrude. For this reason, the gate is often sunk into a spherical depression (referred to as a ‘technical gate’) so that the mark does not protrude above the part surface. Tip gating is generally not suitable for shear-sensitive and highly filled materials due to the high temperature/high shear effects of the relatively small gate.
The Melt-Disk provides hot tip performance for edge gate applications. One of the distinct advantages of the Melt- Disk over an edge gate is that the cold slug is eliminated, allowing it to be used to gate thinner wall parts. The Melt-Disk offers direct gating with up to eight gates per nozzle in close proximity.
Melt-CUBE technology provides precise cavity-to-cavity balance, excellent vestige control, easy servicing, and low injection pressures for a variety of crystalline and amorphous side gating applications. The Melt-CUBE product is perfect for deep draw parts such as pipettes, syringe barrels, needle shields, or smaller parts where only side gating is permitted.
