Product catalog summary
Overview: The document provides a comprehensive guide on Battenfeld-Cincinnati's complete lines for compact and foamed PVC sheets, focusing on process engineering, sustainability, and efficient production.
Process Engineering: Battenfeld-Cincinnati offers modular line concepts for cost-optimized, customer-specific solutions in PVC sheet production. The company integrates its products with components from long-term partners to deliver ideal solutions from a single source, emphasizing resource conservation and profitability.
Product Specifications: The document distinguishes between compact and foamed PVC sheets, including free foam, integral foam (Celuka), and co-extruded multi-layer sheets. These sheets are used in various industries such as building construction, marketing, communications, and furniture.
Production Process: The production of free foam sheets involves melt processing in a twin-screw extruder, followed by cooling and further processing. Co-extruded sheets have a smooth outer layer and a fine foam core, offering surface hardness similar to integral panels.
Extruder Series: The twinEX and conEX NG extruders are highlighted for their compact footprint and suitability for PVC sheet applications. Output rates vary based on formulation, sheet thickness, density, and processing conditions.
Line Components: Key components of the extrusion line include the main extruder, material dosage systems, line control (BCtouch UX), calender, inline laser-thickness gauge, cooling section, length cutting unit, haul-off, QTS crosscut saw, and plate rack. These components ensure high output rates, precise control, and efficient cooling and cutting processes.
Control System: The BCtouch UX line-control system is "Industry 4.0 ready," offering intuitive machine handling, real-time data monitoring, and integration with MES systems. It supports preventive maintenance and condition monitoring.
Services: Battenfeld-Cincinnati provides extensive global services, including spare parts, extruder overhauls, wear analysis, support and training, repairs and upgrades, and technical service. The company emphasizes customer support through a worldwide service network.

Embossed PVC free foam sheets PVC free foam sheets Modeled PVC sheet for roofing Application – PVC sheet end products A basic distinction is made between compact sheets and foamed sheets, and here again, between free foam and integral foam (Celuka), and co-extruded multi-layer sheets. PVC free foam sheets have a fine, even foam structure and a matt-finished, finely structured, closed-cell surface. Integral sheets have a firm, smooth surface with a finely structured core. Co-extruded multi-layer sheets offer many options for additional or new product attributes geared to a specific field of application,...

Regardless of which product has to be manufactured, battenfeld-cincinnati offers you the appropriate line. twinEX and conEX NG extruders are used in lines for the production of PVC sheets as parallel or conical twin screw extruders. Extruder Series The twinEX series, the conEX NG COEX as well as the conEX Transparent for transparent PVC sheets, they all have a very small and compact footprint and are best preferred for the PVC sheet applications. The given output numbers depend on formulation, sheet thickness, density and processing condition. Page 4 - © Battenfeld-Cincinnati 2025 - Applications:...

The lines are very well suited for foamed boards with thicknesses up to 38 mm and output rates up to 2000 kg/h. The intensive cooling section (6) enables rapid cooling of the foam surface and from the centre of the foam board. This allows the production of high-quality foams with reduced thickness tolerances. 1 Main extruder twinEX • High output rates • Proven 28 L/D process units • Use of optimized screw geometries • Gravity dosing systems for dry blend and recyclat • Integration of dynamic mixer for maximum material distribution • State of the art control system • Vertical 3-roll calander with...
