INNOVATIONS
ANNUAL TURNOVER Merkad Makina Kalip San. Ve Tic. Ltd. Sti. has innnovated its machine lines
EUR 7.5 million with CNC High-Speed machining centres and as a part of its machine innovation
process. In addition, Merkad will continue its investment in high technology CNC
QUALITY CERTIFICATION machining centres and the latest mould manufacturing equipment. These machine
ISO 9001-ISO14001-OHSAS 18001 and advanced manufacturing technology investments will allow Merkad to serve
its clients with lower production costs, on-time delivery and very high quality.
SALES Merkad’s process for engraved moulds begins with a 2-D technical drawing.
Domestic: 10% - International: 90% The customer confirms the amount of engraving and positioning of the engraving
on the mould. Conversion is then made from a 2-D image into a 3-D relief using
OFFICE AREA CAD-CAM design software. Once the relief has been constructed, a computer
1,000 sq.m.
simulates various scenarios to test the overall design and production feasibility of
PLANT AREA the mould. Upon customer acceptance of the design details, Merkad then submits
2,500 sq.m. the graphical data and image (supplied by DXF or IGES data translators) to the
customer for final approval. Any additional design enhancements or modifica-
NUMBER OF EMPLOYEES tions can be made quickly and simply to minimize time and cost. Customer inter-
70 action is through Merkad’s website and includes a wide range of functions that
allow clients to view and evaluate their designs as 3-D-Vrml objects. After final
FOUNDED customer design approval, Merkad produces a set of trial moulds for evaluation
1986 “under glass”, thus assuring customer satisfaction.
HVOF
NOMINAL CAPITAL NEW! Now Merkad is using the “HVOF (High Velocity Oxy-Fuel) Thermal
EUR 1.5 million Spray Coating System” to coat PLUNGERS with “High Nickel based material
powders”, in order to offer the best coated Plungers for its customers to have high
REGISTERED TRADEMARKS quality Plungers and reduce their “Plunger costs” accordingly with benefits such
MERKAD MAKINA KALIP SAN.VE.TIC. as: Less porosity (No coating cracks), Improved wear resistance, Improved cor-
LTD.STI. rosion barier, Smoother Plunger surface. Accordingly, 3-4 times longer life time
compared to other type of Plungers used in production with “Increased “produc-
PRODUCTION PLANTS tion efficiency” and Increased “Inner glass surface quality”.
MERKAD MAKINA KALIP SAN. VE PTA WELDING ON GLASSWARE MOULD EQUIPMENT
TIC. LTD. STI Plasma Transferred Arc Process is used to fuse a metallic coating to a substrate
Selahaddin Eyyübi Mahallesi U˘gur Mumcu in order to improve its resistance against wear and/or corrosion. During the
Caddesi - 1596 Sokak. No:20 process, metal powder is fed into a molten weld puddle (fusion bath) generated
34517 Esenyurt/Istanbul by a plasma arc at high temperature.
Generally, PTA welding is applied on two-part Press Moulds (Split Moulds) and
PLANNED EXHIBITIONS Stem Moulds at the mould profile edges in order to eliminate wear and increase
Glasstec 2018 the mould lifetime.
PTA welding is also applicable to Plungers made of Stainless Steel and different
Düsseldorf, Germany grades of cast iron material as a “band welding and also full covered welding”.
23/26 October 2018 For Glass moulds: Mould material (Stainless Steel) coated with high cobalt and
nickel based powders. Hardness of the coated areas increased up to 38- 42 Hrc,
where the base mould material hardness is 32-34 Hrc.
