Plastics Processing Challenges We Solve

Facing an upcoming expansion, greenfield facility or new production line?
You need equipment that’s reliable, will fit in with your current infrastructure and perform exactly as designed.
Tasked with streamlining operations to boost profitability?
You may face a mix of controls that waste operator time or a recent spike in business that’s straining production capacity. Essentially, something needs to change, as the way you’re operating is no longer viable.
Don’t have enough internal bandwidth or expertise to tackle big equipment projects?
Big projects, such as integrating controls or vetting new technology to solve long-standing problems, require a lot of resources. This is especially an issue if the project is time-sensitive, like a soon-to-open greenfield facility.
Unscheduled equipment downtime getting in the way of efficiency?
Unreliable equipment isn’t an option. It prevents you from achieving efficiency, profitability and business growth. Every piece needs to work, guaranteed.
Downtime costing you big money?
Hundreds of thousands of dollars are on the line for every minute down — you don’t have time to wait for service responses or parts delivery.
Short on operators to run equipment?
On the production floor, you don’t have the operators needed to run equipment (and have a hard time even filling those seats). This means frequent training, employee churn and risked efficiency.

How We Solve Plastics Processing Challenges

Equipment that stands the test of time….
Conair offers over 450 different auxiliary equipment products for plastics processing that help ensure quality plastic products before, during, and after the primary processing operations. We still supply parts for equipment that has been running for over 50 years.
…and is backed by a performance guarantee.
In addition to standing behind equipment warranties, we guarantee performance in your specific application. This means equipment will reliably meet or exceed your desired output and throughput— and if something goes wrong, we’ll conduct a root cause analysis and provide training, equipment repairs or modifications until it’s right.
Warp-speed shipping when you need parts.
With an average inventory of $18+ million and over 90% of all part orders shipped the same day, you can count on Conair to get the components you need to return to full operation.
Customized equipment training for your operators.
Routine employee training can dramatically improve performance, safety, profitability and uptime. We take that off your plate and put it in the hands of auxiliary equipment experts who know how to get the most performance and life based on experience in thousands of applications.
Streamlined controls for easier operation and greater efficiency.
We help by providing the heavy lifting on the complex task of integrating equipment and installing uniform control systems across your facility. This common control hardware makes it easier to train operators, plus our SmartServices platform gives you the data to improve the intelligence (and profitability) of your operation.
