Equipment Composition of HIPS Sheet Extrusion Line

Dehumidifier and dryer system

Considering the PC easy absorbing moisture, we will do pre-treatment of chemicals granule before extrusion process, then combine loading system to support stable feeding material to extruder.

Extruder

The extruder melts and mixes the raw materials under high temperature and pressure. Using a screw system, it ensures uniform plasticization and homogeneity of the HIPS blend, which is critical for high-quality sheets.

Die Head

The die head shapes the melted material into a flat sheet. It ensures precise control over the sheet’s width and thickness. High-quality die heads contribute to uniform sheet dimensions and smooth surfaces.

Three-Roller Calender

The three-roller calender further refines the sheet by pressing it between three rollers to achieve the desired thickness and surface finish. It also enhances sheet uniformity and eliminates air bubbles.

Lamination Unit Platform

The lamination platform applies a decorative film to the surface of the sheet. This process enhances the sheet’s appearance and adds specific properties such as colorful designs and glossy designs.

Cooling Bracket

The cooling bracket is used to cool the extruded sheet gradually, ensuring dimensional stability and preventing warping. It typically uses air or water cooling systems for uniform cooling.

Tractor

The tractor pulls the sheet through the production line at a controlled speed. It ensures steady tension, preventing deformation and maintaining uniform sheet quality.

Cutting Machine

The cutting machine precisely cuts the sheet into desired lengths. It offers flexibility to produce sheets of various sizes and ensures clean, burr-free edges.

HIPS Sheet Extrusion Line Workflow

Raw Material Loading

The loader transports HIPS raw materials into the extruder’s hopper. The system ensures a continuous, stable material feed, reducing manual intervention and enhancing efficiency. Sensors monitor the material levels to prevent interruptions.

Material Melting and Mixing

In the extruder, raw materials are heated and melted under high temperature and pressure. The screw mechanism ensures thorough mixing and homogenization of HIPS, resulting in a uniform melt for the next stage.

Sheet Forming

The melt material passes through the die head, where it is shaped into a flat sheet. The die head with two sides deckling system precisely controls the sheet’s width and thickness, and can make different width by on line adjusting. ensuring consistency in dimensions.

Surface Refinement

The three-roller calender compresses the sheet to the desired thickness and smoothness. This process eliminates air bubbles, improves surface finish, and ensures uniform thickness across the sheet.

Cooling and Stabilization

The cooling bracket gradually reduces the sheet’s temperature using air or water cooling systems. This process ensures dimensional stability and prevents warping or deformation.

Cutting and Finishing

The tractor pulls the sheet to the cutting machine, which slices it into desired lengths. The cutting machine ensures clean edges and consistent sizing, completing the production process.

Performance and Applications of HIPS Sheets

HIPS sheet is a popular and cost-effective plastic material due to its light weight, impact resistance, easy processing, good dimensional stability, moisture resistance and easy bonding with other materials.

1.Product Packaging: Due to its light weight, moisture resistance, and ability to be easily molded into different shapes and sizes.

2.Signage and Displays: HIPS is a popular choice for signs and displays due to its good dimensional stability, allowing it to maintain its shape even under varying temperatures and humidity.

3.Automotive Interiors: Due to its strong impact resistance and ease of manufacturing, HIPS is used to manufacture some automotive interiors, including dashboard components.

4.Toys: HIPS is used to manufacture toys and other children’s products because it is lightweight, impact-resistant, and can be easily molded into different shapes and colors.

5.Medical Devices: Due to its high impact resistance, light weight, and ease of processing, HIPS is used to manufacture a variety of medical devices, including orthopedic splints.
