APMT releases second generation industrial ACOMP

Advanced Polymer Monitoring Technologies (APMT) recently launched its second-generation industrial ACOMP product with a successful installation at an industrial polymer manufacturing facility. The second generation ACOMP was installed in June 2016, achieving more than 99% availability since installation.

APMT’s first generation ACOMP was installed at a polymer manufacturing facility in 2014, achieving more than 97% availability over the past 26 months of operation. Improvements on the second generation ACOMP include complete system automation driven by process operations, remote sample handling, and analysis software upgrades.

APMT is currently using its Laboratory ACOMP in its applications engineering lab to develop applications for new chemistries and optimise polymerisation processes. The expansion of ACOMP to other polymer chemistries will significantly reduce manufacturing costs, improve product quality and reduce the environmental footprint of polymer manufacturers.
