How many machine stoppages do you get for basic issues like damaged relays, switches, loose limit switches and so on? Our Electrical maintenance course shows you how to take machine drawings and a multi-meter and safely trace the cause of the stoppage – so you can decide if it’s a simple fix to get back into production, or if the machine really needs to be left for expert help from an electrician.
Our electrical training boards have 3 sections: single phase household circuits (learning how 1 & 2 way switches, cookers, and showers are wired is a very effective and interesting introduction to electrical circuits!), 24 volt control circuits and finally 3 phase circuits used to control heating on an injection moulding injection unit control circuit.

The Beta Lasermike Outer Diameter Measurement system is used to accurately measure the outer diameter of the tubing / pipe being extruded. It uses two laser beams to continuously measure the tubing / pipe and displays the information on a visual display. This allows the extrusion operator that the tubing / pipe is always maintained within specification by making adjustments to the process as required

The cooling bath is required to form the shape of the product being extruded. The molten material exiting the extruder /die in a particular shape must be cooled quickly to retain the desired shape. The heat is taken out of the molten material via the water in the cooling tank which is constantly recirculated. Different styles and lengths of cooling tanks are available depending on the size of the product being extruded and the speed that it is being produced at.
