(Näfels/Shanghai, April 24, 2016) Netstal will demonstrate its comprehensive system,

product and service expertise for the Asian market at Chinaplas 2016 in Shanghai (April 25-28, Stand A10).

Customers and visitors can obtain detailed information about the high quality of injection molding machines and systems for applications in many industrial sectors, as well as the comprehensive range of services.

Technologically sophisticated system for the production of petri dishes

At Chinaplas, Netstal will present an ELION 800-270 that produces 90mm polystyrene petri dishes in a cycle time of only 3.2 seconds. “KIS – Keep it Simple.

These words perfectly describe the smallest Netstal system for the production of petri dishes,” explains Jason Yang, Netstal’s head of Sales and Service in China.

Instead of an elaborate removal and assembly fixture with complicated folding mechanisms, a simple collection device for discharged parts is being used.

In this device, lids and dishes are automatically aligned and brought together, which allows the operator to package and further process the fully assembled petri dishes.

Both the mold and the collection device are provided by the Austrian company Mold&Matic.

“Netstal is gaining ground in the Chinese medical technology

sector: thanks to the all-electric ELION series, it is perfect for the manufacture of clean room components”,

said Yang. Blood collection tubes, petri dishes and also pipette tips place high demands on the technical production,

and absolute precision is as essential as having faultless parts.

“Thanks to the high reproducibility of the quality of workpieces over many years,

a very low error rate and the excellent efficiency of our machines, we are able to fully meet
