Bushing from Interstate PlasticsThe International Feed Expo, International Meat Expo, and International Poultry Expo combine at the Georgia World Congress Center, February 12 – 14 in Atlanta, Georgia to showcase the latest technologies involved in the entire supply chain of protein production and processing. These three expos combine to create The 2019 International Production & Processing Expo (IPPE), the world’s largest annual poultry, meat, and feed industry event, focused on innovation and bringing together buyers and sellers of the latest technology and products.

Plastic Machining Company (PMC), a leader in wear parts and power transmission parts for food processing machinery, is highlighting their latest materials science advancements ahead of the event. New material technologies like Tivar® are allowing for heavier loads and higher chemical resistances, vital in processing machinery exposed to harsh or wet environments where plastics are substituted for metal power transmission components.

In food processing equipment, Plastic Machining Company provides finished parts for the direct replacement of rollers, guides, pulleys, gears, and sprockets found in equipment for refrigeration, distribution, slaughtering, cutting, skinning, deboning, and batching. Parts from Plastic Machining Company also work well for most conveyor and industrial packaging systems.

For bottling and canning industries, Plastic Machining Company offers OEM replacement parts for cupping systems, trippers, spray systems, and light testing machines. For applications where parts are exposed to moisture, sea salts (salt water), wash-down chemicals, and other heavy water contaminants (such as in the seafood industry), PMC has a wide selection of UHMW, nylon, and acetal grades of plastic to enhance desired specifications.

Plastic Machining Company offers nylon and natural UHMW in FDA approved and USDA compliant grades. Self-lubricating moly- or oil-filled nylon is available for parts in close contact with food, as they do not require an external lubricant that may compromise the food.

Plastic Machining Company (PMC) provides industry-leading plastic machining, semi-finished sheet and rod, custom-designed and OEM parts, as well as plastic replacements for metal power transmission components. PMC plastic sheet, rod, and parts are crafted from high-performance materials from Quadrant, Cast Nylons, Ensinger, Poly-Hi Solidur and other resin converters, manufactured with precision state-of-the-art CNC routers, mills, and lathes. PMC parts scale from over twenty feet long and ten inches thick to parts that can rest on the tip of a finger. PMC can produce most custom parts within fifteen working days.
