SJ60/38 Single Screw Extruder

The single screw extruder is a crucial component in the process of extruding PE (polyethylene) pipes. Its primary function is to convey, melt, mix, and pressurize the raw polyethylene material so that it can be formed into the desired pipe shape. This is achieved through the use of a single rotating screw housed within a barrel. As the screw rotates, it conveys the PE material forward while simultaneously generating the heat and pressure necessary for melting and shaping the material.The extruder must provide uniform melting and mixing of the PE material, ensuring that it is homogenized for consistent pipe production.
Additionally, the extruder helps in controlling the temperature and pressure along the extrusion process to ensure the proper fusion and shaping of the PE material into a uniform and continuous pipe.In summary, the single screw extruder is essential for processing the PE material and shaping it into high-quality pipes used in numerous applications.
