- Plastics extrusion is a high volume manufacturing process in which raw plastic material is melted and formed into a continuous profile. Extrusion produces items such as pipe/tubing, weather stripping, window frames, plastic sheeting, adhesive tape and wire insulation.
- Process of forming a continuous piece of plastic by forcing it through a shaping orifice with or without the presence of heat. The opening through which the resins are forced gives the product its form, resulting in consistent thickness and gauge control.
- A common post-extrusion process for plastic sheet stock is thermoforming, where the sheet is heated till soft, and formed around a mold into a new shape.
- Plastic fibers also are made by an extrusion process. Liquid resin is squeezed through thousands of tiny holes called spinnerets to produce the fine threads from which plastic fabrics are woven.
- Advantages of Extrusions are Low cost tooling and short lead times, Low Cost parts, Use of multiple materials in a variety of durometers, Reinforcement via fiber wrapping, Color matching.
- Three layer blown film extrusion (also known as blow film co-extrusion) is a process of simultaneously extruding in
molten stage three polymers which adhere to each other through a common die to form an integral film of unique strength and barrier properties. - Now-a-days the Three Layers Coextruded blown film is playing a major role in the packaging industry.
- For extrusion technology – that is, the manufacture of films, fibers, monofilaments, profiles, sheets and semi-finished products - a wide range of plastic materials are used.
- Plastic processing machinery is locally manufactured and is available within India
- Pakistan's plastic industry is thriving at an average annual growth rate of 15% with a total estimated production capacity of 624,200 M/T per annum.
- The plastics & polymers industry in India has been growing at a healthy rate of 14-15% per annum. Despite this significant growth in demand of petrochemicals, the per capita consumption in India is still far below the world average. This means there are immense opportunities for growth and investment (including FDI) in the coming years.
- According to the Indian Plastics Federation, by 2010 Indian demands for polymers will increase to 12.5 million tonnes/year, making the country the third largest global consumer after the US and China.
- Plant & Machinery such as Plastic Pipe Extrusion Plants
Extrusion Lamination Plants
Woven Sacks Tape Extrusion Plants are available in India - Imported Plastic Machinery may cost anywhere between USD 125000 to USD 250000.
- Machinery made in India with foreign collaboration might cost very much less
