Improved design for solvent recovery units Versatility in high-performance adhesive bonding

As in past years, IST will be present at ECS, bringing news of de- velopments in solvent recovery. The new “Save” series of distil- lation units, from 25 to 60 litres capacity are ATEX certified and have microprocessor control panels with digital display. The new models of the “Roto Plus” series have been re-engi- neered to reduce their footprint, while retaining all the features that made the previous version an international success. These new entries in the IST range are oriented towards cost reduction, needing less investment from the customer, but en- suring reliability and safety, the characteristics that have al- lowed the brand to grow strong in worldwide markets.
