Corrugator
The new UC 330 Corrugator with its newly-developed air cooling system will be used primarily in the U.S. drainage pipe market. During pipe production, the moulds can be kept at a constant temperature between 20°C and 80°C in a continuous cooling process. Variations from outside such as operating and ambient temperature do not influence the continuous process. Outputs up to 1,100 kg/h (PP/PE) or 1,300 kg/h (PVC) can be achieved parallel with highest product quality; the maximum production speed is about 40 m/min.

Diaphragms
Wilden® announced its complete line of EZ-Install TPE Diaphragms designed so the operator in the field does not need to invert the diaphragm during the installation process. This improvement will reduce the installation time, lower maintenance costs and improve uptime. The diaphragms are available in Santoprene®, Hytrel®, polyurethane, and Geolast® options. Geolast is an injection-molded material ideal for applications requiring enhanced oil resistance equivalent to that of nitrile (Buna-N) at a lower cost. EZ-Install diaphragms are available for use in Wilden's 38 mm (1 1/2"), 51 mm (2"), 76 mm (3"), and 102 mm (4") Original™ and Advanced™ Series AODD pumps. All EZ-install diaphragm options maintain compatibility with existing hardware.
