Advanced Glazing Technology from GE & Exatec LLC Delivers Light-Weight, High-Tech Styling & Performance to (COMS) Security Vehicles at the 2005 World Exposition
BERGEN OP ZOOM, THE NETHERLANDS — August 26, 2005 — GE Advanced Materials and Exatec LLC unveiled their cutting-edge automotive technology to the 2005 World Exposition, running from March through September in Aichi, Japan. Sleek new lightweight windshields constructed from GE’s tough, virtually unbreakable Lexan* GLX polycarbonate (PC) resin – and coated with advanced Exatec* 900 glazing – provide a new view to the nine electric vehicles, called COMS, patrolling the exposition grounds. The vehicles are among 35 such transports supplied by Toyota Auto Body to deliver first aid and security to the event’s expected 15 million visitors.

Advent International acquires Synventive Molding Solutions from Madison Capital Partners
‘S GRAVENDEEL, THE NETHERLANDS – 25 August 2005 - Synventive Molding Solutions, one of the world’s largest designers, manufacturers and suppliers of hot runners and related components to the injection-molding industry, announces that it has been acquired by Advent International, a global private equity investment company with its headquarters based in Boston, USA.
BERGEN OP ZOOM, THE NETHERLANDS — August 24, 2005 — With the installation of a new Pedestrian Impact Test System in its Moka Technology Center, in Tochigi, Japan, GE Advanced Materials will help automotive manufacturers and suppliers validate new material technologies for front-end safety systems to help better meet new regulatory obligations around pedestrian safety. GE expects its upgraded test capabilities to help accelerate the development of thermoplastic energy absorber systems, particularly in vehicle components such as bumper beams, fenders, hoods, grilles, garnishes, and wiper systems. This new testing facility compliments the investment GE Advanced Materials has already made in developing and validating proprietary computer analysis techniques to predict pedestrian impact performance of vehicles.
在2004年K展上，聖萬提注塑工業有限公司展示了其一系列細長的熱流道熱嘴, 它們尤其適用於織物背面注塑的應用。它們結構細長，沒有電線或其他外部部件，在模具裏只占很少的圓柱區域空間。這對設計師和模具製造商都極為有利：它使模具裏固定部件的空間比通常情況下大出許多，這些空間通常是給頂出結構和相應的控制件的。
追溯到1994年，閥針式熱流道加工工藝的應用就已達十年之久。在順序針閥注塑的應用中取得了較為理想的效果。其圓錐形的自主中心定位閥針，將密封力直接作用於圓錐形的密封面，在絕大多數的領域取得了極好的使用效果。但是，汽車工業對加工工藝的穩定性和精確性的要求使其對注塑模具的要求更高。
