Press Release Summary = FGH Systems, Inc., a manufacturer of blow molds, blow mold tooling, and supplier of blow molding equipment in Denville, NJ has recently completed a 10,000 sq. ft. expansion. The acquisition of a high speed machining center equipped with a 50,000 rpm spindle, and an advanced CNC control, has allowed FGH Systems to produce blow molds with greater accuracy and with reduced lead time.
Press Release Body = "We knew we had an accurate machine on our hands, but we were surprised by the speed of completion on some of our molds with the new machine", according to Frank Hohmann, President of FGH. He anticipates that this new machine will be a significant value to their customers who always depend on FGH to produce blow molds in their blow mold making facility for their operations in the shortest time possible.
The new CNC control manufactured by Selca in Italy, has solved the dual problems in high speed machining of precision and mechanical stress. The machine uses a sophisticated system that allows for harmonic control of velocity and acceleration. In addition, drive accuracy is increased by the use of filters, which react to the acceleration command. The machine is also equipped with glass scales for greater precision.
"The busiest corner of our shop is now the place where the new machining center sits", says Frank Hohmann. He believes that expansion of the plant, as well as an investment in new technology will carry his company forward into new business areas.
FGH Systems has always offered their customers full technical integration in turnkey applications. Their solution is a complete one from design to machine installation and production of a finished product. Their 30 plus years of experience in the blow molding business allows them to provide blow molds and blow molding equipment for unusually complex blow molding applications.
One recent application called for the production of a plastic part that was essentially a balloon for an emergency medical application. Another project was a spiral bottle mold that had a series of radii under 0.040 in. The high spindle speed of the new machining center saved days of machining time using tools as small as 1.5 mm.
As the competitiveness of the blow molding business increases, established companies feel the pressure to shorten delivery time, and maintain a high standard of quality. Frank Hohmann feels that FGH is on the road to achieve the optimal balance between experienced personnel, and new manufacturing technology.
This balance will allow FGH Systems to continue to expand in order to meet the serious challenges that face manufacturers of blow molds and servicing suppliers of blow molding equipment.
