Polypropylene (PP) hollow profile sheets have become essential components across industries ranging from construction to automotive manufacturing. At the heart of their production lies the advanced PP hollow profile sheet co-extrusion line – a sophisticated system combining efficiency, precision, and material versatility. This guide explores why this technology matters and how to leverage it for superior product outcomes.
A co-extrusion line for PP hollow profile sheets integrates multiple extruders to simultaneously process different polymer layers. This technology enables:
Multi-layer sheet structures (3-5 layers typical)
Combination of virgin/recycled materials
Integrated UV-resistant/anti-static surface layers
Precise wall thickness control (±0.1mm tolerance)
Key components include:
Twin-screw extruders (80-300mm screw diameters)
Layer-specific feed blocks
Precision calibration tables
CNC-controlled haul-off units
Automated cutting systems
Material Efficiency: 25-40% weight reduction vs solid profiles
Enhanced Properties:
Impact resistance: 3-5x improvement over single-layer sheets
Thermal stability: -30°C to +120°C operating range
Cost Optimization:
15-30% energy savings vs conventional extrusion
50%+ recycled material incorporation capability
Design Flexibility:
Customizable honeycomb/ribbed structures
Widths up to 2,500mm, thicknesses 2-20mm
Sustainability:
Closed-loop production systems
ROHS/REACH-compliant outputs
