Metal Unwinder – A-MU

A downstream unwinder to decoil Huhoco coils in the co-extrusion lines.

The A-MU model decoiler has been specially developed to unwind metallic Huhoco coils. It is capable of decoiling carriers from thicknesses of 0,5mm – 0,8mm and lengths of 20mm – 55mm. It can be used with coils made of aluminium, steel as well as many others. It also offers independent tension control through the use of sensors.

The A-MU is ideally partnered with one of our Genesis extruder machines. Or we can even assist you in building an entire extrusion line with our turnkey extrusion solutions.

Roll Forming – A-RF

Motorised metallic tape finishers, both for aluminium and for steel, designed to work in the in-line extrusion process. A finisher consists of:

  • A fixed structure. Produced with structural tube of welded and painted steel, with polycarbonate protection in a hinged door and protections at its entry and exit.
  • 1.5 km with direct gear using mechanical link. Easy anchoring and unclamping. Also has a ring gear to mesh the gears.
  • Rolling mill train. Using reinforced steel columns we can provide different solutions for the different profiles to be laminated. The equipment accepts from 1 to 8 columns. This train can be reused for other projects.
  • Input guide to align the tape + output straightening guide to eliminate internal pressures.

The A-RF is easily synchronised with the extrusion line.

Have you considered combining one the A-RF roll forming machines with one of our Genesis extruders? We can even assist you in building an entire extrusion line with our turnkey extrusion solutions.

Universal Head – A-UH

The universal head is an exclusive design to Arvitec. It has been designed combine four plastic materials in a reduced space with extruders of the same height and at the same time, whilst providing sufficient workspace for an operator.

Sufficiently large stainless block to provide stability to the work temperature by heat resistors (upper-lower).

Adaptable to the design of the client’s current die head to facilitate its integration.

Allows entry through the rear part of metallic tape, flock, chrome-plated foils, etc.

Compositions of up to 10 materials have been created with this original system for plastic extrusion and co-extrusion.

The A-UH is ideally partnered with one of our Genesis extruders. Or we can even assist you in building an entire extrusion line with our turnkey extrusion solutions.

Calibration Table – A-CT

Calibration table and optimised refrigeration adjusted for technical profiles. The structure will be a structural tube of welded and painted steel. Control of position in l front zone in the three axes X,Y,Z using motors with encoder allowing up to 35 project positions to be stored. Refrigeration tank consisting of two 2 metre units to work with the submerged profile.

  • A 40 x 100 stainless tube with 10 outlets for the vacuum and one 40 x 100 tube with 0 outlets for the water will be installed in the first tank.

1-5 metre refrigeration tank by pressurised shower with polycarbonate to avoid the spatter of water. Independent drying zone with polycarbonate to deaden the sound. High-pressure electrical turbine to use an extra dryer with hot air. 500 litre deposit with cleaning system using detachable paper filter especially developed for flock tape profiles. Water deposit to reduce water pressure from the vacuum pumps, a system developed to avoid the loss of vacuum in leakage from these pumps. 25 litre pressureless water deposit and three outlets with spherical valves. Equipped with one or two vacuum pumps of 4 kW TRHC 40-110/C/RX Pompetravaini depending on the client’s requirements, placed inside the base [but] directly on the ground to avoid vibrations during the extrusion process. Light equipment along the base. The plate is prepared to work with an open circuit from the general installation of the plant or with a direct refrigerator and independent closed circuit, 10.4” touch-sensitive screen.

  • Main screen with basic work parameters (possibility of customising this with the client)
  • Direct access to different machines coupled with the line (possibility of customising this with the client)

Haul Off – A-HO

Drag for extrusion profiles with double band consists of:

  • Double Linatex band
  • Two traction servos
  • A 0.12 Kw motor reducer to regulate the mechanical buffer
  • Two controlled clamping pneumatic cylinders for a precision manometer.

The equipment allows rotation by the central part of the upper band so that possible oscillations in the profile are not absorbed into the initial section of the process. The structure is a structural tube of welded and painted steel, with polycarbonate protection in a hinged door according to EC regulations, with a stop sensor at its opening and with protection at the entry and exit of the tread. The straps are easily regulated vertically independently by motor reducers with electronic position control. Effective length of 800mm x 100mm bands Rotation direction from right to left or left to right. Speed from 0 mt/min to 40mt/min. 7.4” touch-sensitive screen with control and graphic speed servo torque, control of opening and closure, control of mechanical stop by position with respect to zero, and with a manometer to control clamping pressure. To activate every one of the treads, the equipment has two servomotors with torque control of 1 kW each: The installation of these servomotors allows control plus speed charges. The incorporation of the torque control will allow control by torque graphics which operates in real time in each of the servos. With the touch-sensitive screen security can be incorporated for the drag if one is locked in the extrusion line.

Cutting Devices – A-CD

Design and construction of units with tailor-made cuts according to project requirements.

We have 3 types of cut:

  1. Servomotor cutter. High-speed servo cutter, static with capacity of five cuts per second. The cutting flywheel has a cutter designed by Arvitec to ensure a good cut in flexible, semi-rigid and rigid profiles up to 2mm thick. Ideal for PP profiles with aluminium tapes up to 0.4mm. The resulting cut is without burrs and with tolerances of up to +/-0.5mm
  2. Saw with disc. The cutting saw is equipped with a system of pneumatic clamps to synchronise the carriage with the profile speed, external suction unit, reading of the coder, number of impulses to insert the cutting length, with adjustable feet to adjust the machine to the extrusion height. Cutting disc with diameter of 300 mm. Maximum cutting size of 100 x 20 mm. Variable speed of 2 poles 1.1 kW without motor brushes.
  3. Cutting with matrix. Cutting matrix whether hot or cold to cut rigid and flexible profiles. Normally used for precise cuts and large profiles. Cutting without burrs. As an option another matrix can be incorporated shifting to X/Y/Z to leave a 0 tolerance part.

As an option all the cut-sets can be supplemented with a collection tray, magnetic tape trailers, reaper…etc depending on the specific project of each client.

The A-CD cutting devices are ideally partnered with one of our Genesis extruders. Or we can even assist you in building an entire extrusion line with our turnkey extrusion solutions.
