3 WHO IS LATI? LATI was created in Italy in From the year of foundation untill today, Lati has gained an absolutely prestigious position in the production of technical thermoplastic compounds. Nowadays Lati is: the compounder with the largest range of technical thermoplastics in Europe; one of the most qualified self-extinguishing compounds suppliers in the world; the most important independent European producer of fit-for-use thermoplastic compounds for special applications. The company has two plants in the North of Italy with a potential capacity of 38,000 tonnes per year. LATI s products are suitable for use in several industrial segments, from the automotive to fine mechanics, from domestic appliances to electronics. The distribution of materials is guaranteed by its own export network. The mission of LATI is to guarantee complete satisfaction to the customer thanks to the high technical contents of its own products and services, keeping maximum flexibility towards market requirements with a constant quality level.

20 LATI: HIGH PERFORMANCE MATERIALS AND FULL TECHNICAL SUPPORT LATI has been developing high technology compounds during the last 25 years. Metal substitution, new polymers and formulations, advanced projects and engineering requirements: this huge amount of topics must be supported by an adequate know-how in order to help our Customers to implement our grades in new products. Today LATI can offer to its Customers a fully structured service including engineering, simulation, co-design and tailor made technical courses. Fluid-dynamical simulations: rheological description of LATI compounds are used to evaluate the moulding process into details, predicting filling and deformation issues. Skilled engineers will consequently suggest mould modifications, tips to stiffen the geometry of parts, correct moulding parameters and so on. The whole activity is performed by using the most updated and advanced computer technology available today. Fiber orientation prediction, cooling channel design, mould layout: every aspect of the moulding process is kept under strict control by LATI co-design engineers. Stress analysis: metal replacement can be suitable without problems by relying on finite element simulation, evaluating how plastic parts can withstand applied loads and deformations. Also in this case a full mechanical description is achieved by LATI laboratories and then forwarded to stress analysis stations for calculation. FEA can take into consideration any aspect related to project requirements: temperature, environmental conditions, contact with other bodies, creep and fatigue. The best numerical methods available on the marketused by highly skilled engineers graduated in polymer technology. Thermal analysis: it s the most recent development in FE simulation on polymers. Thermally conductive polymers can now be evaluated before proceeding with their implementation in new high end applications. By means of finite element thermal analysis, LATI can provide a strong support in calculating, e.g., working temperature of heat sinks and coolers for electronic industry in order to promote metal to plastic substitution. A real asset to polymer compound development. Technical training courses: polymer specialists and Customers must share their own knowledge to be very proactive in proposing to the market new compounds and new applications. LATI can provide in-house and on-site complete technical courses for engineers, technologists and designers in order to create a strong partnership between Supplier and Producer. Full courses on engineering, special compounds and designing with plastics will be performed by LATI specialists, combining passion for compounds with more than 60 years of experience.
