AEC designs and manufactures material handling, process cooling, and auxiliary equipment for the plastics industry. Based in New Berlin, Wisconsin, the company supplies systems for resin preparation, cooling, size reduction, and temperature control. Its equipment serves injection molding, extrusion, and blow molding operations.
The material handling range includes resin conveying, drying, and blending systems, along with gravimetric blenders and feeders. Its BD Series Batch Weigh Blenders use a paddle designed to reduce dead zones and support consistent batch-to-batch mixing. These products address the handling and preparation of resin used by plastics processors.
Process cooling products include chilling equipment, pump tanks, blown film coolers, cooling towers, and full chilling systems. AEC also supplies temperature control units with automatic control. The range covers both process cooling systems and equipment for controlling operating temperatures in plastics manufacturing.
Granulators and shredders produce regrind for reuse, supporting resin utilization in processing operations. Alongside its equipment, AEC provides OEM replacement parts, consumables, technical service, and training. The company maintains an inventory of replacement parts and consumables available for same-day shipping, giving customers a source of support for installed equipment.
Established in 1957 as Application Engineering Company, the business is now known as AEC. Its product portfolio brings resin handling, process cooling, and auxiliary equipment together for plastics manufacturers seeking equipment and ongoing service from one supplier.
