MEDVAC TANKS PRECISION SIZING FOR FLEXIBLE AND RIGID MEDICAL TUBE PRODUCTS MedVac flood-cooling/sizing tanks are uniquely designed to meet the specialized process needs of medical tubing manufacturers. These high technology, simple-to-use systems feature advanced digital controls and rock-steady precision alignment systems to ensure optimum product quality for tubes from single and multilumen microbore heart catheters to large-gauge medical tubing. Model MedVac-235 (Gauge is not included. Shown without pump cover.) 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. An optional water tempering unit controls the bath to ±1 degree optimizing heat transfer rates and obtaining specific material properties. Pivoting overhead controls allow process adjustments and monitoring right at the extrusion die. Cleaner interior design Tank interior is designed to ease daily 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 fixed to free-standing removeable mounts for cleaning. Medical-grade filtration Process water is segregated from the heat/cool circuit to minimize contamination. System can be optionally fitted with a UV water purifier and a 5 micron sedimentary pre-filter. 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 ball-screw 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 Patriot Transducer provides digital linear readout for measuring/recording distance from die face to where the tube enters the water. Specialized non-contact tooling is available for processing of low durometer materials
