PRE-EXPANDERThe process for the production of an EPSblock starts from an efficiently working pre-expansion system. The newTECNODINAMICA batch pre-expanders ,fully automatic, have been designed toimprove the uniformity of the pre-expandedfoam material and to reduce the cycletimes. Our aim is to get a most advancedprocess of treatment of expanded beadsthus obtaining higher uniformity anddensity of raw material at each cycle.The TECNODINAMICA batch pre-expandersallow to get the required density without

any waste of material and to reach verylow densities by means of one singleexpansion. Every single cycle of expansionis monitored by an automatic densitycontrol device which guarantees theabsolute repeatability of the cycles.The standard configuration of theTECNODINAMICA batch pre-expandersincludes: pre-expander with electroniccontrol-board, PC and touch-screen,electronic load-cell of feeding material, rawmaterial feeder, fluidized bed-dryer,delumper and density check system.

SOFTWAREAs applications in polystyrene evolve, so theneed to cope with ever faster and moreparticular production requirements increases.Automatic cutting lines are carefully studiedto suit the needs of the user, therefore themanagement software also needs to becustomised so that it is simple and at thesame time reliable.Tecnodinamica create their own programmesin order to interface the user with cutting-edge and innovative solutions, so they caneasily update customised requests andfacilitate maintenance with specific diagnosticcontrols.There are common features which simplifythe management of lines which are bulky andcomplex for the user, for example:•Storable work cards for repetitive

production;•Tables for automatically checking regulation

(such as cutting speed, temperature andwire burning corrections) depending on thedensity of the material;

•Programmable block count;•A broad range of possibilities to configure

technical parameters and flexibility inenabling parts to optimise performance;

•Specific diagnostics for signal control ableto create an historic file of processingevents for each section of the machine;

•Connection to remote servicing.

A graphic interface allows the operator tohave immediate control over the processestaking place in the workstations.

Our milling machines are also suitable for the production of pieceswith very complex shapes featuring excellent finishing and highprecision. These machines are suitable for the production of mouldprototypes or as an alternative to limited production quantitieswhich do not justify the construction of a mould.

The electrical and mechanical construction features comply withsafety standards in force and the CE mark.Production is achieved by means of a high-speed milling electro-spindle. Axis drives are controlled by Brushless motors which allowvery fast movements.The machine is equipped with: a pneumatic feeder for the

automatic loading of pads to be processed, a milling tool magazine(which stores up to 10 tools) which are automatically selectedduring the processing cycle.

The machine is provided with an automatic feeler which detects thelength of tools in order to obtain maximum precision in theprocessing dimensions. The working table is divided into 5 vacuum areas with automaticvacuum opening or closing selection according to the size of thepiece . Control is made by PC Software in which all profiles arestored and can be selected at any time.

SOFTWAREThe design programme enables profiles for thescooping of boxes or sheets to be created. Movementsequences with which the tool is associated and theSpeed and Depth required for cutting are to beentered.As well as making the design of simple scoops easier,the software also integrates more complex designcontrols which enable designed sequences to bemodified by transforming them using graphic andmathematical functions.A table enables the sequences of the project to beassociated with the basic features of the tools, suchas diameter, depth and rotation speed. This enablesspeed and cutting precision to be optimised.The processing programme controls the 3-axialmovement of the cutter, automatically changes overthe tool as envisaged in the design, configuring thedifferent rotation speeds of the tools and controls theautomatic sheet loading and unloading stationmachining process when required.

SOFTWAREThe Project design programme produces thecutting profiles for scooping machines bycontrolling the XY (Vertical) and XZ(Horizontal) movement planes and therotation of the head. The rotation can bedefined as a single rotary movement orcombined with the insertion of horizontalmovements to define a closed perimeterscoop. The effect produced depends on themovement and the shape the wire appliedwas modelled to.Simulation enables the regulation of differentspeeds during the course plotted therebyoptimising the quality of cutting andproduction times. Specific controls make it easier to producethe scoop project quickly and enable theinternal hollowing of the movementperimeters to be studied according to the sizeof the scoop wire envisaged.The processing programme controls themovements of the 3 axes on the cutter,automatically inserting the rotation of thehead to produce the closed perimeter scoop.Adjustable stops enable the initial wirerotation angle to be defined.


The COMPUTER-CONTROLLED model (3 interpolated axes) combines circular withhorizontal movement in order to producespecial curved shapes. The automaticprocessing cycle is controlled by PC.CAD CAM Software for the programming andthe saving of customer listed profiles. Themachine is supplied with a motor whichenables the scooping of circular profiles and afeeder with pneumatic loading and clampingof pads into position.
