PLASTIC EXTRUSION
Plastic Extrusion Line Engineering
For profile, pipe, sheet, pelletizing and special thermoplastic applications, we engineer the complete line—from extruder and die to calibration, cooling, haul-off and cutting—around product and capacity targets.
APPLICATION-DRIVEN ENGINEERING
Design and Integration Based on Process Data
Polymer behavior, output, product geometry, tolerances, line speed and cooling requirements are considered together so that every component operates as one production system.
Extruder and Screw Selection
Technical evaluation of single- or twin-screw configurations according to polymer, filler, additives, output and mixing requirements.
Die and Flow Design
Evaluation of die feeding and flow channels based on product geometry, melt rheology, pressure distribution and tolerance targets.
Calibration and Cooling
Sizing of vacuum systems, calibrators, water circuits and cooling length for stable pipe and profile production.
Haul-Off, Cutting and Winding
Selection and synchronization of downstream equipment compatible with line speed, product sensitivity and the production method.
Automation and Recipe Management
Control of temperature, pressure, speed, torque and line synchronization for traceable and repeatable production.
Capacity and Quality Improvement
Field-data-based process optimization for scrap, surface defects, dimensional variation, low output or excessive energy consumption.
ENGINEERING SCOPE
From Correct Equipment Selection to Stable Production
Process Analysis
Material, output, temperature, pressure, product geometry and quality targets are evaluated together.
Sizing
Equipment capacity, drive, controls, connection dimensions and safety requirements are defined.
Integration
Mechanical, electrical and automation interfaces are engineered for the existing or new line.
Commissioning
Field tests, process settings and operator feedback are used to establish a stable operating point.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Technical Evaluation
How is a plastic extrusion line sized?
Product cross-section, material, hourly output, line speed, tolerances, cooling demand and operating schedule are evaluated together.
Can the capacity of an existing line be increased?
The screw, motor, gearbox, heating and cooling, die, calibration and downstream limitations are measured to define a feasible capacity increase.
Which materials do you work with?
Applications are technically evaluated for PE, PP, PVC and engineering thermoplastics according to their process requirements.
How does troubleshooting begin?
Product defects and process data are reviewed first; temperature, pressure, speed, torque, cooling and mechanical conditions are then verified in the field.
