In the plastics extrusion sector for more than twenty years, Profile Dies (booth E72, hall 16, at K 2016) is specialized in the design and production of special equipment and complete systems for drip irrigation pipes, films, flat sheets, hollow profiles and sheets and equipment tailored to customers’ specific requirements.
The company also manufactures extrusione lines for the production of furniture trim in PVC, PP or ABS with thickness from 0.4 to 3 mm, PE/PP/PC/PMMA hollow sheets and profiles with thickness from 2 to 60 mm. (up to 9 layers), and extrusion lines for the production of flat sheets with thickness from 0.2 to 15 mm.
In the last year the company has developed new automated extrusion lines for the production of drip irrigation pipes with flat drippers which reach a maximum output speed of 200 m per minute and can insert up to 1,000 drippers per minute, as well as extrusion lines for the production of round drip irrigation pipes with a production speed between 80 and 100 m per minute and an inserting capacity up to 400 drippers per minute, to produce pipes with diameter from 16 up to 20 mm.
Still with a view to develop solutions for the irrigation field, Profile Dies has recently presented to the market a new extrusion line for the production of drip-tape. This irrigation system is extremely cheap and is suitable for both crops in open fields and gardens. It is easy to install and to remove after use, thanks to the low thickness of the pipe.
The new line features maximum output speed up to 200 m per minute, spacing (distance between holes) between 10 and 15 cm, and minimum wall thickness of 5-6 mm.
