Trexel and Teratonics announce a distribution agreement for Teratonics’s non-destructive testing (NDT) solutions dedicated to the plastic injection molding market.
Trexel and Teratonics announce a distribution agreement for Teratonics’s non-destructive testing (NDT) solutions dedicated to the plastic injection molding market. Marketed by Trexel under the brand TrexelVision, this technology enables in-line dimensional control and internal defect detection of plastic molded objects.
TrexelVision is said to enable complete in-line part structure analysis of trials or production and evaluation of process stability. Additionally, this analysis can be used in solid molding to detect inner structure variations of fillers or voids. This technology can also determine the location of inserted objects for insert-molded applications. This system integrates a broadband source and detection system for the 0.1-1 THz spectral range in which many common polymer materials exhibit low or medium absorbance. The system also enables robotized scanning of 3D objects based on their CAD files.
