Tool-Temp AG, a Swiss specialist and manufacturer of temperature control and cooling devices has appointed Myles Crosthwaite Services (MCS) as its agent and distributor in South Africa. MCS is based in Marlmead Industrial Park which is located in the Pinetown Industrial area of KwaZulu-Natal.
Tool-Temp AG has roots dating back to 1973 when it was established by Jürg Koller. The following year the company manufactured and sold its first temperature control unit, which was equipped with a simple electronic temperature monitoring system.
The Swiss specialist and manufacturer of temperature control and cooling devices and units for plastics processing, metal die casting, printing, laminating, the chemical and pharmaceutical industry, as well as the food production industry for over 50 years and now offer over 60 standard models and enough individual solutions to satisfy any special wishes you may have.
Simplicity, trouble-free, user-friendly, the units are optimally integrated into the manufacturing process. In the foundry industry the focus lies on the development and optimisation of the classic casting cell. Throughout the casting process, the equipment is networked with peripheral devices, resulting in increased automation. This substantially increases productivity, reduces costs and creates a 30% higher degree of staff independence so that freed-up time can be used elsewhere. Another advantage of a higher degree of automation is more consistent production processes with optimised cycle times, less waste and thus a high-quality standard.
The Tool-Temp temperature control units are used in a wide variety of die casting processes. Since exact temperature control plays a decisive role during the entire die casting process, temperature control with liquid heat transfer media (water or oil) provides you with clear advantages.
In addition to a homogeneous temperature distribution, you can also benefit from a simultaneous heat supply and removal option within a temperature control zone thanks to our temperature control units.
In order to meet the ever-increasing market requirements for production and quality in die-casting processes, we offer a wide range of high-performance, fast-reacting and precise temperature control units.
The new Matic product line with the IRIS controller offers you a smart and intelligent solution for your process optimisation. In addition to simple and energy-efficient operation, you can expect predictive behaviour & predictive maintenance as well as configurable recipes and much more.
