    Plastic flexible packaging forms such as stand-up bags, vest bags, and wrapping tapes are one of the most important packaging forms in food and beverage, daily chemical, industrial and other fields.
    According to TechNavio, a well-known market consulting firm , is expected to reach a market size of 31.
    69 billion US dollars


    .


    Although the market capacity is very considerable, however, the flexible packaging market demand changes frequently and there are more and more customization requirements.
    In addition to increasingly stringent environmental supervision, most flexible packaging companies also face many production tasks and complex production process control for different orders.
    The challenges of the variability of production tasks such as data collection, maintenance and retrieval workload

    Single point of monitoring

    Single point of monitoring

    Maguire Products introduces an innovative blown film extrusion control system that can be embedded in new production lines with a single point of monitoring of all line components, or can be used in existing lines to increase production efficiency and reduce material costs
    .

    For a new blown film extrusion or co-extrusion line, there are three basic components at the heart of the Maguire®+ Syncro extrusion control system:

    1) Maguire® WXB™ Weigh Extrusion Compounder, which integrates a Gain in Weight (GIW) weigh chamber and a Loss in Weight (LIW) mixing chamber;

    2) Maguire 4088 controller for controlling the loading, mixing and metering of raw materials during extrusion;

    3) Syncro® controller, which uses consumption data from the 4088 controller to control line speed and draw
    .

    .

            Extrusion control modes offered by the Maguire + Syncro system include pounds or kilograms per hour; weight per extrusion length and product thickness in microns
    .

            The Maguire + Syncro system is a product of Maguire's partnership with the Italian company Syncro, which began in 2016, and Maguire's role is to invest in Syncro, which specializes in the control of various extrusion processes
    .

            In addition to extrusion control, Syncro has developed the Syntrol™ monitoring system for blown film manufacturers who wish to achieve a single point of control of their entire production line, which can display and synchronize multiple line controls through a single touchscreen
    .
    These controls include controls for extruder temperature and pressure, air ring, IBC, thickness gauge, cage and draw

    .

            "Advanced extrusion control systems improve accuracy and reliability, enabling blown film processors to maximize output while maintaining tight tolerances, or reduce material consumption by thinning," Maguire Deputy Sales and Marketing President Frank Kavanagh said
    .
    "The Maguire + Syncro system delivers this level of accuracy through Maguire's expertise in quantitative material control and Syncro's expertise in controlling extrusion lines
