Cannon E-System Enhanced The New Generation of High Pressure Dosing Units for HP-RTM Cannon E-System Enhanced is the latest version of Cannon's E-System high pressure dosing units for the HP- Metering Accuracy and Repeatability: HP-RTM resins need extreme metering precisions that cannot be achieved with conventional control techniques. Cannon E-System Enhanced features the most advanced closed loop control techniques to ensure perfect and accurate metering of the components to match the demanding targets of the structural composites industry. The machine has been engineered to give an...

E-System Enhanced benefits from the results of this extensive study and features a range of innovative seal and gasket materials, that are capable of resisting to the severe chemical properties of the most recent HP-RTM chemical In addition to this, hardener is pumped with a high pressure hydraulic plunger, a proven and effective pumping solution for aggressive components, successfully operating every day on many Cannon machines around the globe in the most demanding applications. The result is a robust and reliable dosing unit that can match the demanding productivity targets typical of...

Temperature Control HP - RTM resins need to be processed at high temperatures. To make the process even more challenging, they are extremely viscous at room temperature making the startup of the machine after a period of inactivity long and time consuming. Cannon E-System Enhanced features a temperature control system composed of: • Dedicated thermoregulatorforeach component line • Insulated box with active heating on resin line to heat up the dosing line before starting production • Jackets around tanks • Heat exchangers • Heated hoses Each Component has a Dedicated Thermoregulator

LNEPX Mixing Head LN EPX series is the brand new Cannon Mixing Head specifically engineered for HP-RTM and represents the perfect match forthe E-System Enhanced machine. LN EPX Mixing Heads are the perfect answer to the demanding mixing performances needed in composites Minimized Footprint Lots of engineering efforts have been invested in trying to minimize the footprint of the mixing head body in order to reduce the size of the mould cavity required to house the mixing head. The result is a less invasive mixing head that can help in achieving stiffer moulds and therefore better part...

Dedicated Support In production environments where many different partsare to be produced on a Large number of different moulds, mixing head coupling and uncoupling from the mould can result in a considerable increase in setup time. LN10 EPX mixing heads can be equipped with special supports to drastically reduce the head docking and undocking operations, minimizing the setup time. Dedicated support for easy mould change Liquid laydown is an open mould technology where fibers are impregnated through a Laminar flow of epoxy resin. As a result, the main cause of high in-mould pressure is...
