Germantown, Wisconsin—The MGS Mfg. Group, a leading provider of engineered manufacturing solutions to the plastics industry, is adding two new products to its line of UMS (Universal Multishot Systems) ancillary equipment.

Using its original line of Premier Rotary Platens as a platform, the engineers at MGS produced a new line of ancillary equipment which was developed at the request of customers worldwide.

The first new product, known as OEM Rotary Platens, was executed with the cooperation of manufacturers of new injection molding machines. Utilizing its expertise in the development of rotary platens, MGS created a kit that allows OEM machine manufacturers to install a standard rotary platen product onto their machines right at the factory. These products provide a significant cost savings by eliminating the base plate from the turn table.

The second new product, called Econoline Rotary Platens, offers a lower profile to reduce shut height requirements, a reduction in weight due to lowering the water capacity, with guarding now offered as an option.

Both the OEM and Econoline versions of rotary platens are available in either a servo or hydraulic versions and are under patent application review.

Additional information on the entire line of Universal Multishot Systemsä, including portable injection units, horizontal and vertically mounted rotary platens, rotary stripper (indexing) plates, the MGS universal two-shot mold base, and specialty molding equipment can be obtained by visiting MGS in the south hall at NPE 2009 in booth #12110 and by accessing the company’s website at http://www.multishot.com.
