DETAILED PRODUCT INFORMATION Boost output and cut material costs with KraussMaffei Berstorff extrusion Lines for large-diameter pipe The top priority in pipe extrusion is to boost output performance. Almost as important is tight control of pipe weight and material consumption to reduce material costs. With our extensive process engineering expertise, KraussMaffei Berstorff supplies production solutions for high output and low manufacturing costs. Our range of 3 6D single-screw extruders, with their very high output rates, is the ideal match for our large pipe- heads. They produce an...

KM-RKW39-1600 extra-large pipehead on a mounting carriage (moved aside hydraulically] - Pipe diameter range: 1000 -1600 mm Mature pipehead technology for optimized production, compliance with standards and maximum material savings The larger the pipe diameter and the thicker the pipe walls, the more it could pay to look at the potential for material savings. The maximum and minimum diameters and wall thicknesses for each pipe size are specified in the relevant standards and pipe must be produced in compliance with them. KraussMaffei Berstorff pipe extrusion systems make it easy to achieve...

Many types of extra-Large pipe for a growing range of applications: smooth, corrugated, Large diameter pipe is used mainly in networks carrying large volumes of drinking water, waste water or sewage over long distances or to supply large consumers. Other uses include stormwater drainage, land drainage, natural gas transport and district heating systems (insulated pipe). KraussMaffei Berstorff's extra-large pipeheads are designed to process dif- ferent polyolefins at throughput rates of 1850 kg/h. As a rule, low sagging POs are used; by countering the tendency of the melt to sag under its...
