What should I consider when choosing a plastic extruder?

Here are some key considerations:

1. Product type and specification: Specify the type and specific size range of plastic products to be produced. Different types of products may require extruder heads and molds of different structures. For example, the production of silicone tubes may require a round head, while the production of silicone strips requires a flat head.

2. Production output requirements: Determine the output of the required extruder according to the production plan and market demand. Mass production should choose extruder with fast extrusion speed and high production efficiency.

3. Device performance

Extrusion performance: Consider the extrusion speed and extrusion pressure to ensure that the dimensional accuracy and surface quality of the product can be met.

·Temperature control accuracy: The extrusion process of silica gel is very sensitive to temperature, so an accurate temperature control system is required.

·Screw performance: screw diameter and length-diameter ratio affect extrusion capacity and plasticizing effect. Common screw structures are single screw and twin screw, and twin screw extruders have better mixing and plasticizing properties.

·Head design: The structural design of the head directly affects the shape and dimensional accuracy of the product, and an extruder with reasonable structure and high precision should be selected.

4. Equipment quality: material and manufacturing process is the key, the key parts of the extruder should be made of high-quality materials, such as 304 stainless steel, alloy steel, etc., with good wear resistance and corrosion resistance.

5. Electrical system: Electrical system should be stable and reliable, the selection of well-known brands of motor, frequency converter, controller and other electrical components to ensure the normal operation of the equipment and control accuracy.

6. Degree of automation: According to the production demand and budget to choose the appropriate degree of automation extruder, high degree of automation equipment can improve production efficiency and reduce labor costs.

7. Manufacturer strength: The choice of well-known brands and good reputation of Guangshang, can ensure the quality of equipment and after-sales service.

By taking these factors into consideration, it can be ensured that the plastic extruder selected can meet the production demand and improve production efficiency and product quality.
