extrunet, the established force on the ex-trusion scene stands out due to constant innovations in EXTRUSION.
Its extensively trialled state of the art ex-trusion systems designed on the basis of analyses are surprising in the revolutio-nary design of energy-saving profile ext-rusion and they are considered a guaran-tee for pioneering energy and extrusion technology in the machine and tooling portfolio.
The current generation of machines brings with it all the advantages and fea-tures of cutting-edge extrusion plants.
All tool making components are impres-sive due to constant advances in tool op-timisation and design and they guaran-tee the perfect interplay of all extrusion components.

ECO Plus design
All of extrunet’s energy-saving systems be a part of extrunet’s extrusion sys-tems. The biggest energy saving is achie-ved in the extruder drive and the vacuum pumps in the calibration table. The fully automated energy systems control and optimize the consumption of energy in the dry calibrators, water vacuum tank and water/air separation. By using the energy systems, it is possible under opti-mum conditions to save up to 85% of the line’s entire consumption in the area of the calibration table.

Performance at extru[net]
In the standard, extrunet supplies the complete PERFORMANCE LINE optimally matched to the relevant application.
The PERFORMANCE LINE ECO additio-nally offers increased energy efficiency due to the installation of energy-saving ECOnomical components.
In matters of cost-efficiency, extrunet offers downstream extrusion equipment which is almost unequalled. All the es-sential extrusion features are precisely reproduced in the standard. Perfect mat-ching of all components guarantees first-class product quality.As a matter of course that procedure and process optimisation are considered to be essentials in the extrusion process.

In the full ECO Plus version , the ULTIMA-TE LINE meets all the requirements for energy efficiency!
The ULTIMATE LINE is deemed to be the solution for maximum energy and water saving and satisfies with an high process stability. ULTIMATE LINE, the most up-to-date extrusion product line in extrusion and energy technology combines all the advantages and requirements of modern extrusion to a single ECO denominator.
The cost-efficient generation of energy-saving downstream extrusion equipment is impressive due to interesting innova-tions in water recirculation and water supply, in the main tank and in respect of plant cleaning, due to the integration of ECO central vacuum, table extensions with convenient plug-in systems, self dia-gnosis for water pumps and central vacu-um, and much more.

for poetic resultsOvationsextrunet shines in co-extrusion due to a range of machines which are perfect in every way. Technologies specially mat-ched to the demands of co-extrusion co-ver all output ranges and offer the best solution for customer-specific require-ments. High-grade formulations and materials of all qualities are extruded on compact systems. They are used to process seals of soft and rigid PVC, TPE or other extru-dable elastomers.
The extrunet co-extruder guarantees hitch-free processing of a wide variety of
plastics and features exceptionally high operating comfort such as PLC control via 6 inch touch screen with a range of common operating languages. The plas-ticising unit is provided with a back pres-sure unit and AC motor with reduction gearbox. The operating elements are in a separate housing with 3 metre long con-nection cable. The extrunet co-extruder is equipped with 3 heating zones, opti-onally extendable with up to 3 cooling zones.

The principle of sustainability has always been a major concern in the wood indus-try. Austrian companies and research in-stitutes excel internationally in this field. In line with this guiding principle, extru-net is working on the development of WPC/FPC applications and appropriate solutions. Unlike the thermal recycling of timber waste and also with a view to reducing tropical woods, the material is developed specifically to meet your

The WPC products are distin-guished by material strengths approxi-mating hardwood, maximum weather resistance, excellent resilience, pleasant feel and timeless colours. Wood, rice, straw, coffee and even Tetra Pak are used as the base materials for WPC/FPC appli-cations.
