Innovative extrusion technology for hot melt

Polimer Teknik, a leading manufacturer of co-rotating twin-screw extruders, has achieved a new milestone in hot melt adhesive production with its poex T80 extruder line. This advanced system, renowned for its efficient production process and high-performance capabilities, introduces a significant innovation to the industry.

Hot melt production heavily relies on ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA)-based adhesives. The poex T80 co-rotating twin-screw extruder line, developed by Polimer Teknik, processes EVA materials, adhesives, and various additives to produce high-quality hot melt adhesives. With a production capacity of 1,000 kg/hour, this system offers superior efficiency and cost advantages, making it a powerful alternative in the industry. Additionally, the extruder line can manufacture standard 3 mm granules as well as micro granules as small as 0.18 mm.

The production line is equipped with world-class components, providing high-precision manufacturing through advanced technology. Key system components include German Brabender gravimetric feeders, Austrian Elin motors, Italian Zambello high-torque gearboxes, German Mayr torque limiters, and Maag gear pumps, along with an advanced filtration and underwater pelletizing system. This combination ensures a durable, reliable, and energy-efficient production line, reducing operating costs for manufacturers.

Applications of hot melt granules

Hot melt granules produced by poex T80 cater to a wide range of applications. These include granulated adhesives specifically designed for edge banding machines, as well as thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU)-based hot melt adhesive films. These granules are widely used in industries such as wood, furniture, and decorative surface coatings, as well as textile lamination and waterproof fabric coatings.

Polimer Teknik’s extruder line provides hot melt manufacturers with significant advantages in terms of high performance, low operating costs, and enhanced efficiency. With its energy-efficient operation and optimized processing capabilities, producers can achieve high-quality output while minimizing raw material waste.

Continuing its commitment to innovation, Polimer Teknik remains at the forefront of providing cutting-edge production lines. The poex T80 extruder line is redefining hot melt production by delivering flexibility, efficiency, and cost-effectiveness, playing a crucial role in modern manufacturing processes.
