PPR Pipe Production Line

Properties and Applications of PPR Pipe Extrusion Line

Proporties

PPR pipes produced from the PPR Pipe Production Line have several unique properties that make them ideal for plumbing and heating applications. Both materials have excellent thermal and chemical resistance, making them ideal for use in hot and cold potable water systems, heating systems, air conditioning systems, and underfloor heating applications. The pipes have a smooth interior surface, reducing friction losses and providing better hydraulic performance. Additionally, the pipes are lightweight and easy to install, reducing labor and installation costs. The durable and corrosion-resistant properties of these pipes provide long-term performance and reliability, essential for plumbing and heating systems.

Applications

In recent years, as living standards rise and market demand grows in construction, municipal engineering, and commercial housing development, PPR pipes have gained popularity in developed nations. They offer superior technical performance compared to similar products and are renowned for their environmental friendliness, ensuring no heavy metal contamination. In the domestic market, PPR pipes are increasingly favored for transporting drinking water and in food industries, owing to their outstanding environmental protection advantages in pure water pipeline systems for both cold and hot water applications.

Key Components of PPR Pipe Extrusion Line

Extruder: Material is pushed through by a rotating screw, creating friction and heating the material as it passes through the screen changer or nozzle.

Vacuum Tank: Shapes the pipe and prevents collapse while it cools by spraying it with water.

Belt Puller: Moves material from the vacuum tank to the saw.

Cutoff Saw: Cuts the formed product to the desired length.

Coilers: Spinning arms in a wheel shape that support continuous extrusion.

Corrugators: Mold passes through the nozzle while still connected to the extruder.

Material Selection for PPR Pipe Production Line

The strong resilience of PPR (Polypropylene Random Copolymer) and PE-RT (Polyethylene Raised Temperature) pipes against high temperatures and pressure, corrosion, and erosion makes them preferred options for plumbing and heating systems. Chemical, physical, and mechanical qualities must all be taken into account when choosing the materials that will be used to make these pipes. In general, high-quality resins with UV stability, such polypropylene, ethylene, and butene, are the primary ingredients utilized in the manufacturing process for PPR pipes. These materials must have the requisite mechanical qualities, such as stiffness, impact resistance, and elongation at break. These requirements include the needed pipe diameter, thickness, and length as well as the intended purpose. The materials should be of good quality, devoid of contaminants, and in compliance with industry requirements, according to the manufacturing line.
