Extrusion, also known as extrusion, is a central method in plastics processing used to create long, continuous shapes from various polymers. This technology involves forcing material, usually plastic, through a mold or die to create products with specific cross-sections. MK Plastteknik are extrusion specialists and offer comprehensive solutions for your manufacturing needs.
The process of extrusion
In extrusion, the plastic material is melted and forced through a die to create products with a continuous profile. This can include pipes, hoses, profiles and films. The material can be a combination of different polymers to achieve desired properties such as flexibility, durability or resistance to chemicals.
Advantages of extrusion
- Versatility and precision: Extrusion is perfect for creating complex shapes and geometries with high precision. This technology allows the production of both flexible and rigid materials, making it adaptable to a variety of applications.
- Cost-effectiveness: Using this method, high-quality products can be produced at low cost. The process is fast and efficient, minimizing production costs and material waste.
- Environmentally Friendly: The use of inert gases such as carbon dioxide and nitrogen during the extrusion process makes it possible to create products that are both environmentally friendly and safe. These gases are used to cool and foam the plastic material, resulting in lighter and more durable products.
- Flexibility in material selection: Extrusion allows the use of different polymers and blends, enabling the adaptation of material properties for specific applications, such as electrical insulation, building materials and packaging.
