An exciting first of the two weeks of our EHKO customer in-house event at our extrutec site in Menden is coming to an end. The numerous international visitors were impressed by the heating gradients of the newly developed EHKO. The event will continue next week until Thursday 29th of February. In addition to daily heating tests, several of our new developments, such as the next4.0 digitalisation solution, will be presented to the public.
Picture frame and home decor specialist Nielsen Design GmbH from Rheda-Wiedenbrück, Germany, has made a strategic decision in favor of a highly efficient system configuration from extrutec and Danieli for the complete replacement of its press line. The extrutec scope, includes a new vertical log storage, inline oven with Eco Shower Unit (ESU) and a new hot log saw. The combination of ESU (log preheating), gas, as well as induction furnace with inline design is marketed by extrutec under the trademark Eco Heating Process (EHPTM) and stands for the highest possible energy efficiency in gas based heating processes. The Eco Shower Unit alone reduces the gas consumption of the system by 18%. Another highlight of the equipment is the direct converter principle of the induction furnace. The complete compensation unit can thus be eliminated.
