Parallel twin screw extruder ensures efficient material plasticization.
The one-step forming extrusion process enhances production efficiency and product consistency, making it ideal for high-quality decorative marble sheet manufacturing.
Integrated PLC control systems enable real-time monitoring, quick parameter adjustments, and fault diagnostics, reducing downtime and operator dependency for stable, continuous operation.
Midtech’s sheet extrusion line is designed and manufactured specifically for PCL sheet.The thickness is 1-4mm, The width and thickness of sheet can be customized.
The machine's 3-roller calender use mirror rollers , and the sheet quality is more uniform. We can customize the sheet machine according to the customer's requirements,such as raw materials, smooth surface, matte surface etc,.

Three-Roll Polishing Stack
Multiple sets of heat-conducting oil-controlled calendering rolls precisely control.
Enable online embossing and lamination synchronization.
A synchronous control system matches the calender speed with the downstream puller.
Roll gaps can be adjusted electrically or manually. An emergency stop device allows quick stop.
PCL has a low melting point (~60°C) and narrow processing window. It degrades easily when overheated, causing molecular weight loss and poor mechanical properties. Precise temperature control and low-shear screw designs are essential.

Use precise temperature control, minimize shear heating, and avoid long residence time. Drying resin before processing and using CO₂ as a processing aid can also reduce degradation significantly.
Which extruder is best for PCL sheet?
Parallel twin-screw extruders are preferred for better mixing, precise temperature control, and energy efficiency at high outputs. They handle PCL’s temperature sensitivity better than conical or single-screw designs.
What causes surface defects on PCL sheets?
Common defects include die lines (dirty die lips), orange peel (high viscosity/surging), dark specks (degradation), and haze (slow cooling). Adjust temperatures, clean dies, and optimize cooling roll conditions to fix these issues.
