Title: James R Utech: Innovator in Extrusion Blow Molding Technology
Introduction
James R Utech is a notable inventor based in Cincinnati, OH. He has made significant contributions to the field of extrusion blow molding technology. With a focus on improving operational efficiency, Utech has developed innovative methods that enhance the performance of machinery used in this industry.
Latest Patents
Utech holds a patent for a "Method for simultaneous control of multiple accumulators." This invention provides a cascade, closed loop control of multiple operating parameters for an extrusion blow molding machine equipped with several accumulators. The method allows for closed loop control of the ram back pressure during refill, as well as the adjustment of pressure set points for "slave" accumulators based on comparisons with a "master" accumulator. This innovation is particularly beneficial for systems that utilize separate extruders for each accumulator, as it controls the rotational speed of the extruder screw during refill. Additionally, the method ensures closed loop control of ram velocity during the extrusion of parisons, further optimizing the process.
