VACUUM SIZING EQUIPMENT4MEDVAC TANKS Precision Sizing for Medical Tubing Products MedVac flood-cooling sizing tanks are uniquely designed to meet the specialized process needs of medical tubing manufacturers. These high technology, vacuum sizing systems feature advanced digital controls for rock-steady precision to ensure optimum product quality for single and multilumen microbore heart catheters to large-gauge medical tubing. Model MedVac-235 (Shown with optional UV filter.) Absolutely Consistent Dimensional Control Available in five models, MedVac Series vacuum tanks provide exceptional tube ovality and concentricity for product sizing under vacuum or as a process aid for free extrusion. Industrial duty, stainless steel construction combined with bow resistant half-inch {12.7 mm} tempered glass lids and an integrated proportional valve allow fine-control of the vacuum level to within 0.1 inch of water for repeatable, precise process control. Optional water tempering controls the bath to ±1 degree optimizing heat transfer rates for obtaining specific material properties. Pivoting overhead controls allow process adjustments and monitoring right at the extrusion die. Special non-contact tooling is available for the processing of low durometer materials. Cleaner interior design Tank interior is designed to ease cleanout by minimizing sharp corners and exposed threads where bacteria, pyrogens and other particulate matter can build up. Telescoping drip tray is one piece to aid wipe-down by eliminating open seams. Guide rollers inside the tank are attached to free-standing, removable mounts for cleaning. Medical-grade filtration Process water is segregated from the heat/cool circuit to eliminate contamination. System can be fitted with a UV water purifier and a 5 micron sedimentary pre-filter as options. `` Easy set-up and operation Narrow tank frame accommodates almost any extruder or melt pump, even three layer. Three-axis tank alignment system with hand wheels, linear slides and ballscrew actuators provide stable, precision positioning to within thousandths of an inch. `` Process validation Optional PAVC+ control offers a serial interface for a host microprocessor to record process settings. Optional transducer provides a digital, linear readout for measuring/recording distance from die face to where the tube enters the water.
