Application

Production of large-sized articles and blanks from granular thermoplastic material for further machining processing.

Current stage

Small-scale production.

Summary

Production of large-sized articles and blanks for further machining processing from granular thermoplastic material by heating and melting in vacuum furnace-forms followed by speed-and-direction-varied cooling without the excessive pressure.

     The technology allows manufacturing products from:

• low density polyethylene and linear low density polyethylene;
• polycarbonate;
• polyamide, polystyrene, polymethyl methacrylate, etc.

Technical characteristics of products

•  maximum diameter (diagonal)                                     up to 3.0 m;
•  maximum height (length)                                            up to 2.0 m;
•  maximum weight                                                         up to 2,500 kg

 Field of application:

Insulation of high-voltage electrophysical installations; insulation capacities for the electrochemical industry; structural parts and articles for the electrical industry, etc.

 Advantages:

•  ability to manufacture solid-cast articles of various shapes, including embedded metal parts;
•  absence of defects, gas inclusions, or shrinkage cavities in articles;
•  minimum residual mechanical stresses.

Today, in Russia, there are practically no organization-suppliers of similar products.
