BE's water-quenched blown film line, the AquaFrost system
·
uses an AquaRing to quickly cool the molten polymer
·
operates at 26 lbs/hr/inch of die circumference (1.5
kg/hr/mm die diameter)
·
uses all the conventional components including extruders,
SCD™ die, bubble stabilizers, oscillating haul-offs,
winders, towers (substantially shorter than conventional
blown film towers) and integrated control systems.
AquaFrost systems:
·
make commercial multilayer blown film at output rates
that can match cast film
·
produce film that matches the clarity of cast film
·
maintain blown film properties such as balanced orientation
