Our Industrial Chiller are used to cool high temperature stretch mould to give final shape. Thermoforming is a manufacturing process where a plastic sheet is heated to a pliable forming temperature, formed to a specific shape in a mold, and trimmed to create a usable product. The sheet, or “film” when referring to thinner gauges and certain material types, is heated in an oven to a high-enough temperature that it can be stretched into or onto a mold and cooled to a finished shape.

Industrial chiller used for surface treatment of Metals and plastics are treated to change their surface properties for: decoration and reflectivity, improved hardness and wear resistance, corrosion prevention and as a base to improve adhesion of other treatments such as painting or photosensitive coatings for printing. Plastics, which are cheaply available and easily moulded or formed, retain their own properties such as insulation and flexibility while the surface can be given the properties of metals.

Of the various automotive production processes that use chilled water, metal finishing operations are notorious for high water consumption, but it is in the paint shop that chill water consumption is most significant. While the painting process itself uses considerable volumes chill water, for automotive coatings and paints that are water-based products, processing equipment must be cleaned regularly with chill water.
