At NPE2015, , a Piovan Company, Woodbridge, Va., revealed two significant additions to its line of plastics auxiliaries. In its established market for drying, blending, loading, and conveying systems, it now offers powder bulk-handling equipment, a capability Una-Dyn has not had since it was sold by Mann + Hummel of Germany in 2008. Its new offerings of systems to handle powder materials such as PVC resin, TiO₂, carbon black, and calcium carbonate come from the acquisition last year of the Italian company Penta by Una-Dyn’s parent, , also of Italy.

In addition, Una-Dyn is branching out into a whole new field—process-cooling systems—with a line of products from Piovan’s former chiller division, newly established as a separate company called Aquatech. Una-Dyn is starting with the DigitempEvo portable water-cooled chillers or temperature-control units (TCUs). Available with one or two circuits, they have digital scroll compressors, electronic expansion valves, operating range from -5 C to 90 C, and free-cooling option. Other Aquatech products, which Una-Dyn will introduce later, include portable air-cooled chillers, central air- and water-quenched chillers, a special PETchiller model, and dehumidifiers for molds and resin silos. Aquatech also performs energy audits.
