Fifty years of dedicated research and development in the field of mixing technology for reactive formulations allowed Cannon to establish a worldwide leadership in this specialized market segment. Over 32,000 high-pressure mixing heads – most of them are still in production – have been installed on more than 14,000 metering units around the world.

 

Cannon is introducing its newest FPL mixhead series, “SR”.  The FPLSR features several significant improvements in terms of laminar flow, reliability, cleaning and maintenance.  This new mixing head is being manufactured in the following sizes: 14, 18, 24 and 26 mm (diameter of the self‐cleaning plunger).

 

The new Cannon FPL SR mixing head has been conceived to cope with the rising request for faster operations, higher reliability under severe cycle conditions, reduced overall cost of ownership and ease of service and maintenance.

 

When confronted with the basic problem of having hundreds of existing molds that cannot be easily modified to accommodate the larger injection nozzles that are typical of a higher output mixing head, the FPL SR is the solution.  The SR features a longer injection nose, extended, in average, by 30% versus the prior version.
