 New SIMONA® twin-wall sheets – shaping the future of industrial design
New SIMONA® twin-wall sheets – shaping the future of industrial design
The second generation of SIMONA's product innovation opens up new possibilities for the construction of tanks without steel reinforcements.
Kirn, October 2008. SIMONA AG has unveiled its new twin-wall sheets of the second generation, which are supplied in SIMONA® PE, PP, PPs and PP-C-UV. The twin-wall sheet developed by SIMONA combines rigidity and stability with lightweight design.
The second generation of twin-wall sheets is available with a variable number of web elements and in a range of sheet thicknesses. As a result, SIMONA's latest solution is also suitable for applications that have to meet higher load requirements. What is more, for the first time, the new sheets can also be used for the construction of rectangular plastic tanks with a volume of more than 5 m³; sizes of more than 10 m³ can be achieved if interior tie rods are deployed. Until now, producing tanks of this size was not possible without the use of steel components. Another key benefit associated with SIMONA's latest innovation is that it is capable of delivering cost savings of up to 30%, mainly due to the absence of steel reinforcements, which usually have to be welded and lined in conventional designs. Additionally, the new twin-wall sheet provides high levels of thermal insulation, as well as offering good chemical resistance.
SIMONA® twin-wall sheets can be used for a wide range of applications, such as the construction of equipment, tanks and machines, as wall and ceiling panels, as sound barriers, for applications in the field of environmental and agricultural technology, and as covers for swimming pools. SIMONA® twin-wall sheets are suitable for a wide range of fabrication methods, including welding, sawing, bolting, milling and turning. Owing to their cavity structure, they are extremely light.
The new twin-wall sheets are available in the materials SIMONA® PE, PP, PPs and PP-C-UV.
In collaboration with LGA, Nuremburg, SIMONA is also able to provide tailor-made consulting services and structural assessments within the area of tank design.
