Unique Interchangeable System to Fit Any Application
Kent, WA - Magnum Venus Products (M.V.P.) UltraMAX™ Systems A Hit
Magnum Venus Products is pleased to announce that the UltraMAXTM Systems, released during the Composites 2002 Exhibition in Atlanta, Georgia in September, 2002, has enjoyed great success in the United States market. MVP is now ready to introduce this superior technology to the rest of the world.
The UltraMAXTM System is unique in its design, incorporating the quick shift Powerslide Air Motor, Ultra Proportioning System (UPS) with stainless steel catalyst pump and a rugged fluid section - all modular and interchangeable to fit any application.
Customer feedback on the need for a system to meet multiple configurations led the MVP Advanced Design Group to design an ergonomic system, from the powerhead to the catalyst pump to the gun. The UltraMAXTM System was the result.
The UltraMAXTM System is the first truly modular system that can adapt to multiple applications and multiple configurations by changing a minimum of components. For example, with the UltraMAXTM, should an operator decide to add fillers to their raw material changing from a low to a high viscosity material, the only component to change would be the powerhead.
The modularity of the UltraMAXTM System also extends to the metering of catalyst. The customer can change from a standard catalyst pump to an increased volume pump that will be a direct fit to the existing system.
At the heart of the design is the patented low-pressure Fluid Impingement Technology (FIT®). Fluid Impingement Technology reduces emissions levels to new lows, exceeding EPA requirements.
FIT works at power ratios of only 3:1 or 6:1, eliminating spray atomization. Systems with power ratios over 11:1 will produce high levels of atomization, essentially changing the system from impinge to atomized spray. During testing, tip fluid pressures as low as 15 psi were recorded.
The UltraMAXTM System is available in both internal and external mix for multiple applications including chop, gel, high-volume, RTM, granite and more.
UltraMAXTM - One System, Multiple Configurations, Endless Applications. UltraMAXTM can be viewed at the MVP booth (#F18/G13) at the JEC 2003 Exhibition.
