Written by Philippe Giovangrandi | Oct 5, 2021 4:00:00 AM

The ECH 5/50 ML earns its stripes with this new 7 extruder group version, for both smooth and corruguated tubes. Individual channels offer the flow precision and stability for each functional layer as demanded by today’s automotive industry.

Indeed, when opting for a 6-layer tube construction with stripe(s) a seventh extruder port makes it all possible. This head has the flexibility to switch down from a 6-layer setup to a 5, 4, 3, 2 and even a single layer setup. The distributors fit into each other smoothly and are optimized for easy handling. Not only is the head suited for smooth tube, but it works just as well for corrugated once appropriately fitted.

Benefits:

  • Optimized for PA, PA6, PA612, PPA, EVOH, adhesive, PVDF, ETFE, EFEP,and HDPE
  • Hundreds of layer combinations
  • Rapid layer indexing
  • Corrugation, smooth tube and striping features available
  • Convenient connections to a 7 extruder array
  • Ease of use for assembly and cleaning.
