Two Designs…
• This product is offered in two designs• The two designs are necessary to
accommodate a larger range of barrel diameters
• The two designs are “Segmented”and “Clamshell”
• The “Clamshell” designaccommodates barrel diameters from2” - 9.9”
• The “Segmented” designaccommodates diameters from10” - 17”

TCS Heater Band System…
• Manufactured from a vacuumedformed ceramic fiber
• Completed segment design iscomposed of multiple segments, theclamshell two halves
• With the segmented design thenumber of segments is determined bythe barrel diameter
• Both designs are wired in series, thesegmented design is assembled withVelcro, the clamshell with metalclamps
• Both consist of embedded radiantheating elements

The Cooling Option
• The bands are designed to accommodate cooling if required
• The heating elements channels are also used for cooling
• Optional blower can be added• Air is pulled through the channels
directly across the surface of the barrel
![Page 15: Mz133 milacron ppt_tcs](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061120/546c046caf79598a798b5b6e/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Footer
The Cooling Option
Faster & more effective air cooling directly on the barrel. Do not have to cool the band heaters or aluminum clamshells first. Does not depend on maintaining good barrel contact to conduct heat away from barrel.
High Radiant Energy release from exposed element permits much faster heat up and response time than conductive type band heaters. Does not depend on maintaining good barrel contact to conduct heat to the barrel.

During Heating & Cooling
• This system totally encapsulates your barrel
• Heating elements do not require direct contact with the barrel
• Cooling is more efficient, air has direct contact with the barrel
![Page 17: Mz133 milacron ppt_tcs](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061120/546c046caf79598a798b5b6e/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

Benefits of the TCS System
• Reduced Energy Consumption of conventional bands by 30% To 50%
• Faster Heat Up Time 30% To 50% Faster • Tighter Temperature Control
+/- 1degree F• Improved Worker Safety Safe to the
touch under operating conditions• Reduction In Air Conditioning Costs• Lower Maintenance Costs
![Page 18: Mz133 milacron ppt_tcs](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061120/546c046caf79598a798b5b6e/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)

How Saving & Benefits are Achieved
• Wattage of the TCS system is reduced by 30%
• Bands cycle less due to superior insulating• Additional savings with reduced heat-up
time• Conductive heat into your facility is almost
eliminated reducing air conditioning requirements
![Page 19: Mz133 milacron ppt_tcs](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061120/546c046caf79598a798b5b6e/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Footer
Maintenance Savings
• Lower wattage equals longer band life– replacement costs are reduced
• The single segment or clamshell designallows for ease of replacement– maintenance time and cost is reduced with single
replacements– Lead wires and terminations run much cooler
• Replacement inventory is reduced– reducing inventory costs

TCS Verses the Competition
• Typically 50-80% lower in cost than induction heating• Equivalent or better energy savings - Reduced ROI• Barrel cooling can be easily incorporated• TCS bands wire into existing relays, thermocouples, and temperature controllers• No converters, transformers, or additional power supply necessary• No safety or electronic equipment concerns due to signal noise• Minimal downtime for conversion• Superior reliability and replacement parts at a small fraction of the cost
