2 Kurtz Shape Moulding Machines for all Applications Cost-effective version for EPS packagings Maximum freedom for EPS processors Kurtz T-LINE - Setting the new Benchmark in EPP-Processing High-end technology for highest demands Machines of the T-LINE series can doubtlessly be named kings of table machines. They are the peak in shape moulding production and are used for EPP processing as well for applications where normal EPS processing reaches its limits. The machines are platforms for different sizes of steam chambers or monoblock moulds, giving maximum flexibility to the user. Fields of application: EPP processing (operating pressure up to 5 bar) in-mould skinning skin moulding insert moulding Machine Material Size Kurtz and further unique Kurtz Technology Advantages Increasing Productivity up to 73% & additional Energy Savings up to 45% Benefit from Kurtz technology (consisting of i-drive + i-steps) and increase your productivity and process efficiency. High-end process optimization for intelligent filling, steaming, stabilization and reduced material usage, also reducing scrap. This drive conbines the speed and precision of electronics with the power of hydraulics. Most energy efficient mould technology with volume optimized steam distribution and reduced masses for lowest energy input in process. Energy Quantity Monitor () measures and records steam, air and electricity consumption and monitors energy costs. This leads to considerable reduction of energy consumption. T-LINE EPP / EPS S M L XL moulding area up to 0.9 m² 1.7 m² 2.5 m² 3.2 m² Increase of Productivity: up to +37% Additional Energy Savings: up to 45% Kurtz A-LINE - Setting the new Benchmark in EPS-Processing Shape moulding machines of the A-LINE series are designed for most optimized processing of EPS and are available in 4 sizes covering a moulding area of up to 3.2 m². They are characterised mainly by their central docking station for energy supply to moulds or steam chambers. The fixed and movable machine side can be equipped with a number of different steam chambers. Mould types which can be used: original Kurtz moulds moulds of competitors in their original dimensions mono block moulds Eco-LTH and LTH moulds Machine Material Size A-LINE EPS S M L XL moulding area up to 0.9 m² 1.7 m² 2.5 m² 3.2 m² Increase of Productivity: up to +73% Additional Energy Savings: up to 36%

3 Kurtz N-LINE - Best price Shape Moulding Machines The First Step to Success - Kurtz Pre-expanders for EPS & EPP Kurtz offers with the N-LINE shape moulding machines a professional but economic basis for EPS shape moulding production. It is available in 3 sizes covering moulding areas of up to 2.5 m². N-LINE shape moulding machines are designed with the focus on functionality and solidity. It is the ideal machine for packaging products and large quantities. Machines of the N-LINE series can be equipped with standard steam chambers or monoblock moulds. The machines are equipped with modern touch screen controls. Machine N-LINE moulding Material EPS area up to S 0.9 m² Size M 1.7 m² L 2.5 m² Kurtz offers the processors of thermoplastic foams a full range of preexpanders: The product range comprises continuous and batch pre-expanders for block and shape moulding production, laboratory pre-expanders for research and development and HP pre-expanders for density adjustment of EPP. The expansion vessel volume ranges from 0.15 m³ to 7 m³. With a bead density of 15 g/l a throughput volume of approx. 85 3,500 kg/h is achieved. Large density variation of EPP raw materials from % make it difficult for the converters, to target the lowest permitted product weight for applications. The Kurtz 2 nd pass expansion process guarantees a density variation of 0.3 g/l, independent from density, which results in a saving of 2 % raw material in average. Further benefits are: Expansion ratio between lead to reduction of transport costs Reduced material logistics and warehouse Almost any raw material density can be manufactured Better performance of moulding process due to constant material Kurtz offers 2 nd pass expanders from low to highest capacities. They are well known by most of the EPP raw material suppliers. We give shape to ideas - Shape Moulding Applications Block Moulds and Cutting Lines with Leading Technology Kurtz block moulds stand out due to their high productivity, reliability and quality. In this way the processor can cope with the ever increasing prices of raw material and energy on the market. In the field of sheet cutting, Kurtz manages to give block processors decisive competitive advantages with innovative technologies. In view of cutting speed and throughput, the PRO-LINE cutting line is beyond competition and is currently one of the fastest plants on the market. The control concept of Kurtz block moulds was fundamentally revised to make the operation more user-friendly and to make full use of the block moulds potentials. The vertical ECOMAT block mould with fixed dimensions has captured the market. Due to the cleverly optimised ventilation and steaming technology it sets benchmarks in block processing.

Just-in-time production, profitability even in small series, forward-looking recycling etc. Tell us the products you would like to manufacture and we will draw up the professional complete solution for you. Modernization and Upgrade Optimization and Modernization As a rule, products manufactured on Kurtz machines such as foodstuff packaging, technical packaging or insulating panels for the building industry are automatically removed from the moulds and stocked according to the order sizes of the ultimate packaging units. A similar situation is seen with facade insulation panels following the contour cut on Kurtz cutting lines. These are often pre-picked according to the required packaging unit. The further packing in the trading unit which is ultimately available in the shops still occasionally ensues by hand. Often inflexible individual solutions come into play, which do the job after a fashion. The ideal option is the almost fully-automated solution using machinery and plant from manufacturers specialised in this type of packaging - and this is exactly the strength of MACDUE and its packaging lines. In its market segment, MACDUE plays a leading role and manufactures fully-automated packaging machines and lines for automatic pick-up, stacking and film wrapping. On MACDUE machinery, plastic trays and panels of every kind are packed in commercial trading units. With its lines, MACDUE solves all the usual packaging tasks - the unique feature here is the option of totally-closed packing of panel stacks. On request, articulated robots can be used for optimisation of the automation. Benefit as a customer from the advantages offered by this cooperation, the advantages which you would expect of a full-range supplier: first-class and fully-fledged advisory services, project execution and supervision and components and technical solutions ideally tailored to your needs, all practically from one source. Thus Kurtz and MACDUE promise their CUSTOMERS technical solutions all from one source.
