Ram extrusion is a pressing process enabling the continuous manufacture of sections. Especially of UHMW-PE (ultra hight molecular weight polyethylene). The basic material is UHMW-PE powder is fed into a cylindrial extrusion pipe, compressed by means of a ram and, at the same time, transported through the pipe, which is heated up to sintering termperature. The individual dosing charges sinter together into a continous Extrudate.
Advantages of Keicher RAM-Extruders or PTFE-Extruders
Horizontal desing to reduce space of UHMW-PW RAM-Extruder
Short set-up time through easy and quick die change
Canstant high quality of the products through permanent electrical measurement and precise temperature regulation
Uniform and exact dosing through electronix dosing system
User-friendly and maintenace-free
Possibility of stepwise extension to a complete automatic manufacturing system through modular construction
Operation through touchscreen and recording of the exhausion parameters
Safe operation date
Automatic adjustin of extruder and heatings acoording to preexisting recepts
