Advanced Process Technology, Inc.     manufactures precision urethane process
equipment, vacuum potting systems and epoxy composite RTM/VARTM injection
machinery. Our systems degas, meter, mix and dispense a variety of urethanes,
epoxies, and other plural component, abrasive-filled and unfilled, resin materials
providing continuous and shot output for laboratory and production applications.

about our meter-mix-dispense equipment
and our company's 40-year history:  

"With digital, servomotor-control you can
eliminate waste, scrap and rejects ... minimize
operator error ... and increase high-quality
output production."
John Phillips, Director of Technical Service for APT

APT's customers dispense cast urethane, epoxy, polyester, silicone, nylon,
hybrids and many other flowable formulations     abrasive-filled and unfilled,
precisely heated and at room-temperature.

Our equipment dispenses single and mixed multiple-component formulations,
in time-tested applications like open-casting, vacuum-potting and encapsulating
(inside vacuum chambers), resin transfer molding (RTM), VARTM (vacuum-
assisted RTM), low-pressure resin injection, wet-wound filament-winding (resin
bath filling), solid (MBOCA) curative melting, powder curative melting, on-the-fly
    thin-film resin heating and degassing     and other automatic material-handling
operations.

If you need standard or custom-designed metering, mixing and dispensing
systems, APT can help. We started over 35 years ago with automatic Quik-Melt ^®
MOCA melting equipment (now it's called MBOCA). One year later, we added
automatic, mechanically-driven shot machines    Flying Wedge^® metering and
mixing systems     complete with heated, agitated, vacuum-degassing tanks
and on-demand MBOCA Melters for casting urethane elastomers. Two years
later, among other items, we introduced epoxy processing systems to our line.
This included manual and fully automatic, high-vacuum chambers, which gave
our customers the ability to vacuum pot and encapsulate electrical and electronic
components with air-free epoxy, inside air-free vacuum boxes. (Primarily these
are high-voltage or critical, bubble-free, electronic component potting applications.)

On-the-fly, thin-film degassing came about when customers asked for higher
outputs, along with a way to maintain vacuum on their materials.  Our Continuous
Thin-Film Resin Deaerators eliminated air and moisture contamination and the
need to apply dry nitrogen gas overpressure on the material.

Our metering, mixing and dispensing systems have evolved from our mechanically
driven HT-Series Piston Pump Wedge Machine and the CDM-Series Common-
Drive Rotary Pump Machine.   Over the past 20 years, we've added PLC/PC and
Servomotor-Controlled SRD-Series, Rotary Pump Machines and Servo Driven
ECS-Series Piston Pump Machines to our expanding product line.

The SRD and ECS-Series systems include state-of-the-art PLCs (Programmable
Logic Controllers) and PCs, combined with digital, servomotor-controlled metering
pumps.  Coriolis mass flowmeters, mounted in-line between the metering pumps
and the mixer, add a high level of QC protection to the metering and mixing process.
What this means is that   with APT   you can rely on one machine supplier to offer
you total control over your process. You have the option of selecting shots or
continuous rotary pump dispensing as well as mechanical or servomotor-control.
And when your application demands the very best, you can add coriolis mass
flowmeters to virtually eliminate material waste and scrap.

What Do Our Latest Servomotor-Controlled Systems Give You
...that conventional machines can't ?

• Accurate, digital control of ratio, temperature, output rate, vacuum levels, mixed
  material output pressure, total volume displaced and mixer speed.

• Closed loop-feedback ratio control.  Mass flowmeters at the output side of each
  metering pump instantaneously monitor and auto-correct the ratio of the metered
  materials to match the required ratio you preset at the touchscreen-interface.  

• Unmatched ratio-change versatility with simple, pushbutton-presets and the
  ability to store all of your critical process variables in saved pour recipes.

• The ability to vacuum cast air-free material into air-free mold cavities inside vacuum
  chambers   for electronic potting, encapsulating and vacuum casting, plus vacuum-
  assisted VARTM parts.

• Thin-film degassing and delivery of precisely heated and agitated materials to the
  mixing machine. You can heat, agitate and vacuum degas your resin materials in
  APT batch preparation tanks or prepare materials on-the-fly in our Continuous
  Thin-Film Deaerators.
  

Save time and money by eliminating operator error and guesswork.
APT's digital process control reduces waste and rejects to an absolute minimum.
Now you can meter, mix and dispense on-ratio, air-bubble-free material
to your molds     with consistent, digital accuracy and repeatability.
