Cooling is a fundamental phase in the extrusion process, as it allows the molten material to solidify and fix the final shape of the product. A well-designed cooling system is essential to ensure dimensional stability and product quality, as well as to optimize the energy efficiency of the process. There are various cooling solutions, each suitable for specific types of materials and applications.
Types of Cooling
-
Tube Cooling Bench: Designed for cooling tubes with diameters up to 1,000 mm, this system allows for high linear extrusion speeds while ensuring maximum dimensional stability of the product. The 3-axis adjustment and motorized longitudinal movement make the system particularly precise and rapid, ideal for operations requiring precise adjustments during the cooling process.
-
Calibration and Cooling Bench: Calibrating the cross-sectional area of a profile before cooling is crucial to achieve the desired shape. The Bausano calibration bench is designed to handle profiles of various shapes and sizes, optimizing material calibration and ensuring rapid and uniform cooling, which prevents deformation and guarantees a high-quality final product.
-
Granule Cooler: Granule cooling occurs on perforated stainless steel sheets, where forced air circulation, managed by vertical control valves, effectively cools the extruded material. External wall filters and mass vibrators ensure uniform distribution of the granules, improving efficiency and optimizing the cooling surface area.
