    ㆍOur single extruder, an integral component of the NPE Foam Sheet Extrusion Line enables an optimal foaming and maximum output.
    ㆍA unique screw provides an intensive mixing and enables the production of quality foam sheet with any cell size and density.
    ㆍOur dies, specially manufactured for its high tolerance, provide an efficient process and flexibility to create the highest quality foam to meet customer’s diverse demands.
    ㆍAuto temp. control via PID temp. control or PLC controlled touch screen on customers request.
    ㆍHydraulic screen change system enables a continual production even during changing screens.
    ㆍAC motor and variable frequency inverter control system are durable at any harsh factory environment.
    ㆍOur Three-Way Special Cooling System inside of dies and inside of screw guarantees low density foam with noticeably short aging time enabling direct lamination with film. This system is applicable to both single extruder and tandem extruder.

EPE foam sheet extrusion line FAQ

1. What is difference between EPE and XPE foam ?

EPE (non-crosslinked polyethylene) and XPE (chemically crosslinked polyethylene) have different manufacturing process, resulting in distinct properties. EPE has higher flexibility, cushioning, and lower cost whereas XPE foam has higher density, better thermal insulation, and water resistance.

2. What kind of gas is used in EPE foam extrusion?

Liquid type LPG (Butane mixed with propane at the ratio of 80:20 or 70:30) is generally used because good cooling system in our extruder and patent additive reduce aging time effectively.

In terms of aging, 100% propane is advantageous for sheet production because it diffuses fast and cheap but its handling is not easy.

3. What is advantage of Pacific EPE foam extruder?

Our EPE foam sheet extruder has three way special cooling system and long L/D to produce light, strong and resilient foam with significantly short aging time by using less gas.

4. What is technology of Pacific Industry Co., Ltd. to reduce aging time?

Our extruder has Long L/D(length by diameter), special screw design with advanced 3D cooling cooling system by extra oil cooling unit requires less dosing quantity of gas (10% of total production). We have patent GMS(GMS9850) to provide good & even penetration into foam without blocking foam surface as well.

5. What is advantage of cooling system of Pacific Industry Co., Ltd.?

Our special 3D cooling system in 3 ways enhance foam strength, resilience and creep. And, it can lower foam density and reduce aging/curing time.
