An extrusion line is composed of many components linked together in series. When a supplier delivers a less than reliable piece of equipment, the likelihood of line failure grows and the level of acceptability drops. We can only insist that particular care be exercised when choosing your extrusion equipment and provider.

Great news for pipe manufacturers! We've just reduced cycle times on all recent TCA coilers by 6% to over 10%. Plus we've added a single strap feature on our smaller model. Imagine what those fewer seconds can get you in terms of coil lengths. The ability to satisfy buyers with coils in sizes ready for consumers may be the manufacturing advantage that you've been waiting for.

Since the early times of extruded high voltage subsea XLPE insulated cables, it has been mandatory to develop reliable in-house solutions for jointing either XLPE or lead extrusion lengths. The manufacturing lengths are connected by so called Factory Vulcanized Joints (FVJ). The factory joints make it possible to proceed with the application of subsequent cable layers in processes not sensitive to restarts after a break.
