Plastic Extrusion Machine

Listing ID #3647788

Plastic extrusion process converts plastic materials as plastic chips or pellets from solid to liquid form and reconstitute them in final shape of finished product. Extrusion Machinery is used for gravity fed and dried in a hopper into the barrel of the extruder before going to the feed screw. Additives are mixed with resin prior to arriving at the hopper. The polymer resin is heated from the extrusion screw by heating elements and shear heating. The screw forces the resin through a die to form a desired shape from resin. The extrudate is pulled through the die or water tank to cool and solidify. A multitude of polymers are used in the production of plastic tubing, pipes, rods, rails, seals and films.
