iNOEX Celebrates Forty Years of Intelligent Measurement and Control Solutions at NPE2024

MARCH 6, 2024 LANCASTER, PA USA

iNOEX, LLC, a subsidiary of iNOEX GmbH, will exhibit at NPE2024: The Plastics Show, booth W2089, its extensive portfolio of high-pre­cision measurement and control technology for the plastics extrusion industry. The portfolio includes measurement solutions for pipe, tube, cable, film, and profile extrusion applications as well as data management software for the visu­alization of extrusion line processes and quality control data.

This year, iNOEX proudly celebrates forty years of measurement excellence. From the inception of the SAVEOMAT gravimetric dosing system in 1984, fol­lowed by the ultrasonic-based AUREX system, the groundbreaking radar-based WARP technology, and now iXRAY as the newest addition to iNOEX’s innovative product line, the company continues to pursue its mission to “inspire beyond measurement” through ongoing investment in research and development.

“The need for intelligent, automated measurement technology has become cru­cial as plastic extruders face challenges ranging from rising raw material costs to skilled labor shortages and increasingly stringent industry standards,” explains iNOEX, LLC President Adam Grier. “iNOEX is committed to addressing these challenges by developing new technologies that help plant managers and line operators save material, time, and resources.”

As the exclusive partner for local sales and service of the ASCONA promex pro­duct line in North America, iNOEX will also feature at its booth the ASCONA promex BASIC FAST system. The plug-and-play solution captures and measures all profile dimensions in production and lab environments.
