BOPP Machinery
I ran across your year-old post today. Did you ever get any feedback re alternative BOPP equipment suppliers? I am also interested in viable alternatives to the two you mentioned, as well as Marshall and Williams of Rhode Island. regards, Anthony- anthonym

Finite element heat transfer analysis
I purchased an educational version of ANSYS for the same reason. It is an inexpensive way to model systems that are not geometrically complex. Although the number of elements and nodes is limited (something like 500 and 1000, respectively), the rest of the software is full feature (including...- anthonym

is polymer heat of fusion relevant to quench cooling?
Thanks for your thoughtful reply to my original post! We are interested in the time required to drop the sheet temperature to about 220C, at which point we should be able redirect the sheet around a bar in the quench tank without causing "ripples" to be frozen in. Therefore, the...- anthonym

is polymer heat of fusion relevant to quench cooling?
I am setting up an ANSYS heat transfer model for the rapid quenching of an extruded polyester (PET) sheet, such that this otherwise semi-crystalline thermoplastic remains amorphous. In view of this, and the fact that differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) quench cooling curves don't show an...- anthonym
