Downstream equipment for Pipe Extrusion (vacuum cooling Calibration tank, haul off machine, planetary cutter)
The extruder plasticizes PVC dryblend with a pipehead forming different pipe dimensions using variable die sets with apporpriate calibration sleeves. Vacuum tanks and spray tanks stabilize the size and cool the product. A haul-off pulls the strand with a cutting unit providing the requested length. An optional belling machine forms different socket designs.
Calibration tanks
Theysohn offers vacuum and double-chamber vacuum spray tanks in different sizes. They are made from stainless steel (V2A) and stand for their practice-oriented construction and solid manufacturing. Additional spray cooling baths are available.
Haul-off
Depending on the application, there are various types of haul-offs available. Belt Haul-offs with two belts are used for continuous haul-off of pipes in single strand extrusion. The caterpillar haul-off with 2 caterpillars is designed for single and multiple strand extrusion. The caterpillar clamp pressure front/rear is separately adjustable. The multiple caterpillar haul-off has been specially developed to pull pipes and considerably influences the wall thickness tolerance. Multiple caterpillar haul-offs for dimensions from 6 - 800 mm OD can be equipped with 3, 4, 6 or 8 caterpillars depending on the type of machine.
Cutting unit
The cutting unit is a planetary saw which combines a cutting and chamfer system. The different cutting and chamfering processes are performed with highest possible precision. With an exhauster hoot and chamfering tool at the cutting end, the chips are collected in bags which are fixed at the frame of the saw. The traditional system of clamping the pipe consists of two pairs of fixed clamping jaws which clamp the pipe over the total circumference. The universal system consists of an appliance with progressive closing, which clamps the pipe on 8 (8+8) positions hence adjusting itself to the actual diameter.
