LSR applications for everyday products

LSR (liquid silicone rubber) processing, an important technology for WITTMANN BATTENFELD, will be demonstrated by the production of a composite LSR part on a machine from the servo-hydraulic SmartPower series. A SmartPower 120/350 will be equipped with a 2-cavity mold supplied by Nexus, Austria, to produce a “Drinky” immediately ready for use. The “Drinky” is a drink timer, or drink manager, which reminds us to drink enough and at regular intervals.
