The role of chillers in the extruder industry

2023-08-16

The function of the chiller in the extruder industry is to adjust and control the temperature of the extruder, maintain the normal working temperature of the equipment and mold, and improve the quality and production efficiency of the product. The role of chillers in the extruder industry also includes cooling equipment and molds, cooling products, controlling temperature, reducing energy consumption, extending equipment life, and supporting efficient production.

The role of chillers in the extruder industry mainly includes the following aspects:


1. Cooling the extruder product: the extruder extrudes the molten plastic material into shape, and the extruded product needs to be cooled and solidified. The chiller can provide cooling water source, provide the necessary cooling conditions for extruder products, make the products solidify quickly, and improve production efficiency.


2.Cooling the extruder: The extruder generates a lot of heat during the working process, and the cooling system is needed to reduce the temperature. The chiller transfers and discharges heat through circulating cooling water, effectively maintaining the stability of the working temperature of the extruder, avoiding the normal operation of the equipment due to overheating, thereby improving production efficiency and product quality.

3. Cool the extruder and mold: The mold of the extruder is a key component for molding products, and the change of mold temperature will directly affect the quality of molded products. The chiller takes heat away from the mold by circulating cooling water, prevents overheating from affecting equipment operation and product quality, keeps the mold at a stable temperature, and ensures the consistency and quality of product molding.


3.Control the temperature of the extruder: The temperature of the extruder needs to maintain a certain stability during the processing to ensure the quality of the product and the effect of processing. The chiller can help control the processing temperature of the extruder by adjusting the temperature of the cooling water to keep it within an appropriate range to achieve the best processing effect.

5. Reduce energy consumption: The extruder will generate a lot of heat when it is working. If it is not cooled, the heat will be lost with the environment, resulting in a waste of energy. The chiller takes away the heat through the circulating cooling water and performs heat dissipation treatment, which reduces the energy consumption of the extruder system and improves the energy utilization efficiency.


6.Support efficient production: The chiller can quickly adjust the working temperature of the extruder by adjusting the flow and temperature of the cooling water, improving production efficiency and capacity. At the same time, the chiller can be intelligently adjusted according to the workload of the extruder to ensure that the temperature of the extruder is stable and avoid production interruption due to overheating.

7. Increase the life of the equipment: When the extruder works for a long time, the temperature instability will lead to increased wear of the equipment and damage to some key parts of the equipment. By providing a stable cooling water source, the chiller helps the equipment maintain a suitable working temperature, reduces the wear and tear of the equipment, and prolongs the service life of the equipment.


In general, the chiller plays an important role in the extruder industry and is an indispensable key equipment in the extruder industry. It can provide stable cooling effect, keep equipment temperature stable, reduce energy consumption, improve product quality, extend equipment life, and support efficient production.
