Graham Engineering Commercializes Next Generation Wheel Technology
7/17/2012
YORK, PA--(Marketwire - Jul 16, 2012) - Graham Engineering Corporation (GEC), the York, PA, USA-based manufacturer of extrusion blow molding equipment, has commercialized the first in its series of "next generation" rotary wheel machines. Christened the "HS Series," this new line of wheel machines with two-ton clamping stations is designed to process lightweight bottles, such as dairy, juice or yogurt containers, at speeds of up to 12 RPM.
GEC has built wheel machines since 1968, the bulk of its history as a stable, family owned company. GEC rotary wheels are renowned globally for many years of reliable service. The company estimates that well over 90 percent of all wheel machines are still producing today.
While the technology around the wheel machines has changed (items such as controls, takeout systems, and downstream equipment), the rotating "spool" of GEC wheels has remained fairly constant until now. GEC has begun delivering wheels with a breakthrough design concept that provides significant advances in flexibility, commonality of components, and faster job changeovers when compared to existing wheel machinery.
According to David Yenor, Vice President of Business Development, "For many years there was very little impetus to change our 'tried and true' spool design. This has always been the standard by which wheel machines have been compared. But a few years ago, we started focusing our R&D efforts on improving our approach to manufacturing our rotary systems. The result is that we have developed significant advancements in our approach to the wheel construction, especially in the flexibility to modify the number of machine clamping stations if a configuration change is desired in the future."
By changing out a few parts, processors can add or reduce the number of clamp stations. This flexibility allows bottle producers to redeploy their machine -- cavitation or mold sizes are more readily adjustable if the product mix changes over time.
Yenor touts several other advantages of the new GEC wheel design: a range of 16 to 20 stations; improved access inside the spool area for easier maintenance; commonality of pre-built clamp stations for each tonnage, regardless of the number of stations per machine; greater mold close time in some configurations, leading to faster cycle times; and reduced lead times to build machines.
Even with these changes, the next generation wheel machines use proven Graham Engineering approaches, such as cam-driven mold opening and closing action, platens that slide on guide rods, strong linkages and bearings, and spring stacks for clamp force adjustment.
The "HS Series" is a forerunner to Graham's "G-Series," a stronger 6-ton high-speed rotary wheel machine. This series features two sizes of machines, with a wider range of 12 to 26 clamping stations. These "G Series" wheels add additional range to the Graham product lineup. Again, a key feature of this series is greater flexibility. By changing out a few parts, processors can add or reduce clamp stations; thus cavitation or mold sizes are adjustable if the product mix changes over time.

The Federal's pistol slid into its holster and his sabre flashed out. He threw its curved point up in a splendid salute. Ferry saluted with his straight blade. Then both swords rang back into their scabbards, and Jewett whirled away toward his column. For a moment we lingered, then faced to the left, trotted, galloped. Over the fence and into the road went he--went I. Down it, as we crossed, the blue column was just moving again. Then the woods on the south swallowed us up. "All right, sir." that before. Meanwhile the parallelism between Thought and Extension was not exhausted by the identification just analysed. Extension was not only a series of movements; it still remained an expression for co-existence and adjacency.412 Spinoza, therefore, felt himself obliged to supply Thought with a correspondingly continuous quality. It is here that his chief originality lies, here that he has been most closely followed by the philosophy of our own time. Mind, he declares, is an attribute everywhere accompanying matter, co-extensive and co-infinite with space. Our own animation is the sum or the resultant of an animation clinging to every particle that enters into the composition of our bodies. When our thoughts are affected by an external impulse, to suppose that this impulse proceeds from anything material is a delusion; it is produced by the mind belonging to the body which acts on our body; although in what sense this process is to be understood remains a mystery. Spinoza has clearly explained the doctrine of animal automatism, and shown it to be perfectly conceivable;569 but he has entirely omitted to explain how the parallel influence of one thought (or feeling) on another is to be understood; for although this too is spoken of as a causal relation, it seems to be quite different from the logical concatenation described as the infinite intellect of God; and to suppose that idea follows from idea like movement from movement would amount to a complete materialisation of mind; while our philosopher would certainly have repudiated Mr. Shadworth Hodgson’s theory, that states of consciousness are only connected through their extended substratum, as the segments of a mosaic picture are held together by the underlying surface of masonry. Nor can we admit that Spinoza entertained the theory, now so popular, according to which extension and consciousness are merely different aspects of a single reality. For this would imply that the substance which they manifest had an existence of its own apart from its attributes; whereas Spinoza makes it consist of the attributes, that is to say, identifies it with their totality. We are forced, then, to conclude that the proposition declaring thought and extension to be the same thing570 has no413 other meaning than that they are connected by the double analogy which we have endeavoured to explain. “Oh, he’s welcome to it,” Sandy cried. “I’ve turned over a new leaf!” “But—are they?” He pulled a wire out a trifle from the sheath. The sergeant spent more time upon the oaths with which he embellished the counter-question as to how he should know anything about it, than would have been consumed in a civil explanation. "Doctor, he can't die. He mustn't die," said Shorty in agony. "The regiment can't spare him. He's the best soldier in it, and he's my pardner." AND ENTERS UPON HIS PARENTAL RELATIONS TO LITTLE PETE SKIDMORE. "Holy smoke, look there," gasped Monty Scruggs, as a company of rebel cavalry came tearing over the hill in front, to the assistance of their comrades. "That's about it," answered Shorty disdainfully. "That's the way with all cavalry, dad-burn 'em. They're like a passel o' fice pups. They're all yelp and bark, and howl and showin' o' teeth. They're jest goin' to tear you to pieces. But when you pick up a stone or a club, or git ready to give 'em a good kick they're gone, the devil knows where. They're only an aggravation. You never kin do nothin' with 'em, and they kin do nothin' with you. I never kin understand why God Almighty wasted his time in makin' cavalry of any kind, Yank or rebel. All our own cavalry's good for is to steal whisky and chickens from honest soldiers of the infantry. The infantry's the only thing. It's like the big dog that comes up without any special remarks, and sets his teeth in the other dog. The thing only ends when one dog or the other is badly whipped and somethin's bin accomplished." "Mmm." Reuben started out of the half-waking state into which he had fallen. It was late in the afternoon, the sunlight had gone, and a wintry twilight crept up the wall. Maude the dairy-woman was looking in at the door. It was about a month subsequent to this, that one morning, as Turner was making the anvil ring with the ponderous strokes of his hammer, two retainers from the castle entered the shed, and delivered an order from De Boteler for his immediate attendance. Wat laid the hammer on the anvil, and, passing the back of his right hand across his forehead, to clear away the large drops that stood there, looked with a kind of smile at the men as he said, HoME泷泽萝拉四部和集下载
