Co-extrusion Line for PS and PP thermoforming sheets

The Co-extrusion Line for PS and PP is a custom-engineered solution suitable for the production of thermoforming sheets.
The main single screw extruder, 75 mm in diameter, L/D 52:1, is an Easy Feed model developed in-house by the AMUT’s R&D department. It is an extrusion and feeding concept designed to feed up to 100% thin grind material, without reducing the hourly productivity of the plant. This combination of innovative technology and consolidated know-how results in an operator-friendly and flexible production machine. An EA 48 L/D 40:1 and EA 35 L/D 33:1 co-extruders integrate the configuration of the line. They are equipped with water-cooled bush, multi-component gravimetric dosing units and gear pumps that guarantee constant and accurate flow control.
The need for a high level of automation, required by the customer, is satisfied by the thickness gauge and the die adjusted automatically.
AMUT’s tailor-made high heat exchange vertical calender ensures to cool down the sheet properly.
This line, featuring an intermediate sheet cutting and 3-station winding system is the right fit to produce rolls up to 1,200 mm diameter.
