Come visit our booth to find out about new rubber products and innovations; meet with technical experts; and get caught up with friends and colleagues.

Come join us at the Energy Polymer Group Fall Technical Meeting on September 20 at the Marriott Plaza in San Antonio, Texas, and learn about the latest in material testing and atypical compounding.

For brighter, more energy-efficient, more unique and longer-lasting lighting systems, we highly recommend you take a look at Dow’s innovative, high-performance silicone materials for protection and assembly and secondary optics.

Join us at LSR 2018 September 11 – 13, 2018, at the Sheraton Park Hotel in Anaheim, California. RDAbbott will be co-exhibiting with Dow to feature the latest advancements in silicone materials and technologies and Rick Ziebell will be spotlighting GermanRepRap’s LAM 3D Printer and Dow’s SILASTIC™ 3D 3335 LSR in his presentation.

We are looking forward to attending and exhibiting alongside Dow at the Smithers Rapra Silicone Elastomers U.S. Summit June 27-28 in Cleveland, Ohio.

The new X-Series™ instruments are Alpha Technologies’ modular production floor solution for customers who are looking to bring testing closer to the rubber compound mixing line. Actionable rheological data is acquired immediately after the mixing process.

Alpha Technologies introduces the Alpha ATC™ (Automated Test Cell). This next-generation automated production floor testing solution will minimize human interaction as the sample goes through the testing process. The ATC™ receives a sample at the end of the mixing process and takes it through rheological testing all while providing batch release data using Alpha’s Enterprise software.

In booth W4143 at NPE2018, Zeiger Industries will be molding an automotive LED headlamp optic made from DOWSIL™ MS-4007 Moldable Silicone on a Milacron-Fanuc Roboshot a-S55iA with their new iHMI Controller that has a two cavity mold mounted to a M.R. Mold universal base with a single drop gated cold runner system. The production cell will utilize an ELMET TOP 5000P dosing system, a Thermal Care air cooled EQ3A01 portable chiller, and a Yushin YC-100S-11-8 robot with an E-Touch Compact controller, a custom engineered end-of-arm tool, and a Yushin indexing conveyor. A virtual molding simulation of the filling and curing process will be provided compliments of SIGMASOFT®. The Zeiger LSR Plug-n-Play Conversion Kit incorporates a Wexco777 water-cooled barrel, Zpringlok™ LSR pre-closed valve, ZSAR PM zero compression ratio screw and their proprietary barrel/screw sealing device.

RDAbbott is excited to partner with LORD Corporation in their exclusive “International Rubber Journey” conference May 22 – 44, 2018, at the Hacienda Jurica Hotel in Querétaro, Mexico.

Come join us at the Energy Polymer Group (EPG) Spring Technical Meeting May 10, 2018, at the Arlington Hilton in Arlington, Texas.
