The Production Line Consists Of

Single Screw Extruder

The SJ60/38 features a single screw design known for simple and effective melting and mixing. The 60mm screw diameter and 38:1 L/D ratio provide excellent processing capability for a wide range of polymers.

Vacuum Loader

The integrated vacuum loader system automatically conveys raw materials from storage bins to the extruder hopper, minimizing manual handling and reducing dust or moisture contamination.

Hopper Dryer

The hopper dryer removes moisture from hygroscopic materials before they enter the extruder. Temperature control and airflow management help maintain stable material condition and final product quality.

Gravimetric Weighing System

The gravimetric weighing system accurately measures and controls material feed rate, helping maintain precise dosing, formulation consistency and real-time linkage with the extruder control system.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: What is the model of your single screw extruder? What does SJ60/38 mean?

SJ60/38 means the screw diameter is 60mm and the L/D ratio is 38:1. This long L/D design is suitable for HDPE water and gas pipe production.

Q2: What materials can this extruder process?

It is mainly used for HDPE, MDPE, PE100 and PE80 raw pellets. It is also compatible with PP, clean recycled PE scraps and PE with carbon black or calcium carbonate filler.

Q3: Which pipe sizes match the SJ60/38 extruder?

It is suitable for HDPE pipe OD 63mm to 250mm water supply and gas pipeline production, and can also be used for thick PP sheet and hollow grid board production.

Q4: What is the maximum output capacity of SJ60/38?

Stable continuous output is 180-300 kg/h for HDPE PE100 virgin material.

Q5: How do you guarantee stable melt pressure and pipe wall thickness?

The screw ensures uniform plasticization and stable melt pressure. The system can support online gravimetric wall thickness control linkage and closed-loop screw speed adjustment.

Q6: Does the long L/D 38:1 screw cause material degradation?

No. The barrier screw uses a mild shear design with slow temperature rise, supporting low-temperature extrusion and stable HDPE pipe quality.

Q7: How much recycled raw material can be added?

Up to 30% clean crushed PE pipe regrind can be added without reducing pipe physical performance. Impure, wet or polluted recycled material is not recommended.

Q8: What material are the screw and barrel made of?

Standard screw and barrel use 38CrMoAlA alloy steel with deep nitriding treatment. Bimetallic screw and barrel are optional for high calcium carbonate filling production.

Q9: What is the service life of the standard nitrided screw and barrel?

For normal HDPE virgin material, service life is typically 4-5 years under continuous 24-hour operation.

Q10: How about barrel heating and cooling temperature accuracy?

The barrel uses segmented cast aluminum heaters with forced air cooling and independent spiral water cooling at the feeding section. Temperature control accuracy is about +/-1C.
