The key to quality is good preparation. It can make the difference between a success and failure. Why? Because poorly heated materials does not perform as well, increasing your costs if you have to start again. The C R Clarke 200FD is designed by plastic forming experts. Digital controls mean precise heating. And the mix of a circulated fan and insulation maintains consistent heat. The result. Material which work ready, so your students can get straight on with their projects. Ideal for heating materials for dip coating, dome blowing, press forming and thermoforming. Key features: • Internal capacity 508 x 355 x 304mm • Heats up to 350°C - Perfect for thermoforming plastics and pre-heating • Digital control - Achieve the ideal temperature for processing • High quality, asbestos-free ceramic fibre wool insulation - A consistent temperature means better quality and less waste • Single phase - Plug in any socket or hard wire to a switched outlet • No volt release and overload protection - Keeping safety in the classroom paramount

This range of strip heaters will handle most common thermoplastics. It operates using multiple low voltage hot wires. The heating wires produce an accurate and controllable line of heat to give sharp bends. The hinged top section incorporates cut-off switching to turn the heating wires off while loading and unloading.

The 320 Dome Blowing Unit consists of a rigid base with a heat-proof seal plate that has perforations to allow air to be injected. A sheet of thermoplastic material, normally cast acrylic, is heated in an oven to its softening temperature. The material is transferred to the Dome Blowing Unit and is clamped into position. Air is blown under the sheet using the control valve on the front panel, inflating the dome. An adjustable height gauge assists the user to achieve consistent dome heights. Once cooled, the dome is unclamped and is immediately ready to use. The 320 requires an external air supply, this can come from a compressed air supply or the Pressure Outlet of one of our Vacuum Forming Machines. The 320 is supplied with rings to make domes of 300, 225 and 150mm in diameter.

It uses a 125 watt motor and router bit combination mounted in a unit measuring 355 x 380 x 380mm. The combined fence and guard protects the user from the cutter and enables fine detail to be trimmed safely. It will trim right up to an edge or leave a flange as desired. Single phase industrial motor. Swarf collection duct. Angled work support table. Foot switch operated for safety. Supplied with 3mm dia. slot drill.

The 280 has a fine heating wire capable of cutting expanded polystyrene materials up to 250mm in thickness. Variable power to the wire is supplied from the low voltage transformer housed in the base of the machine. Freehand shapes can be cut with ease, while the machine table also has grooves to accept the accessories supplied with each machine: • Parallel Guide • Protractor Guide for non-parallel cuts • Circle Cutter

Fluidised baths consist of a tank to hold thermoplastic powder, a plenum box and a porous membrane. When low pressure high volume air is blown through the powder via the plenum box it causes the powder to lift and disperse thus behaving like a liquid and permits immersion of a preheated metal component. • Everything needed to carry out dip coating with plastic powders • Contains: Model 300 and 150 fluidised bath, Model 120 blower unit and stand • 670 x 700 x 770mm

This machine features a temperature controlled heating barrel, rack and pinion injection ram, over centre mould closing, automatic moulding ejection and is supplied with a wheel mould (flat upper & shaped lower mould) and 2kgs of red polystyrene granules. To operate the machine, plastic granules are loaded into the heating barrel. After a short pre-heat time, the plastic is ready to inject. The mould is closed and the injection ram lowered. This action automatically opens a valve in the injection nozzle and the plastic is injected. Once the mould is full the ram is retracted. The heating barrel rises on its return springs, closing the valve. After cooling the mould is opened and the moulding is ejected by pins in the mould cavity. Requires permanent fixing or bolting down. Safe and easy to use.

The 180 combines a heated wire on a tensioned bow, ideal for cutting expanded polystyrene models, with a horizontal wire or strip heating of rigid plastic materials. This compact unit is ideal for smaller workshops.
