HDPE

Product catalog summary
Overview: The document outlines the specifications and features of Macchi's HDPE film lines, emphasizing the need for specific technology and attention to processing parameters to achieve high-quality film production.
Specifications: The HDPE extrusion process requires an extruder L/D ratio of 25:1, cartridge screenchangers with high capacity filtering areas, and new generation compact extrusion dies. These features help reduce working pressure, material residence times, and facilitate quicker material and color changeovers.
Key Features: The film lines include high-efficiency internal bubble cooling systems with custom-engineered air blades, horizontal oscillating take-off units with Teflon profiles to reduce film tension and friction, and high-speed BO PiLUS winders capable of automatic roll changes at speeds up to 220 m/min.
Production Capacity: A film line equipped with an IBC system can achieve production capacities of 1.3 kg/h per mm of die lip diameter. For example, a 250 mm die lip can produce 325 kg/h.
Materials and Durability: The use of specific materials such as highly wear-resistant alloys for feed bushes, special alloy x-800 for screws, and bi-metallic barrels with a hardness of 64 HRC ensures a long production lifespan and maximum production capacities.
Production Range: The document provides a table detailing the extruder die lip range, film width range, thickness, and maximum production capacity for different models, including MONO 65, MONO 80, MONO 100, and COEX 65 x 3.

HDPE-2

The HDPE extrusion process requires specific technology. Superior quality physicals and optical properties can be obtained running the bulk of today’s polyolefins using low neck bubble configuration and technically standard extrusion screws and film dies. In comparison, HDPE processing requires that specific attention be paid to processing parameters and operating conditions. These crucial details will make the difference between simply changing raw materials in an existing line or changing raw materials and producing the high quality films that converters demand. Macchi has set out a range of...

1 2 3 The resulting production quality is remarkable. A film line equipped with an IBC system can obtain production capacities of 1.3 kg/h for each mm of die lip diameter. This equates to approximately 22.5 lb./in of die circumference. A 250 mm (10”) ø die lip can produce 325 kg/h or 715 lb./hr. The distinctive design of the extrusion screws combined with a section of forced feed for high production and passage of HDiiPE can lead to excessive pressures and high erosion and abrasion circumstances. The use of specific materials for these components allows for a long production life span and maximum...
