Calendering Machine for medical applications
At Lumis Automation, we are excited to introduce our latest innovation: a PTFE calendering machine designed to produce thin plastic films with precision. This project showcases our expertise in industrial automation, machine design, and control engineering, offering a solution that meets the stringent demands of the industry.
Purpose and Scope
The primary purpose of our calendering machine is to produce thin films of Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) by passing the material through heated barrels. This process is essential for applications requiring ultra-thin, high-performance films. Lumis Automation has undertaken the complete lifecycle of this project—from research and design to manufacturing and implementation—ensuring a comprehensive and tailored solution for our clients.
Technical Specifications
Our PTFE calendering machine is designed with cutting-edge technology to ensure optimal performance and reliability. Here are the key technical specifications:
- Power Requirements: The machine operates on 380VAC 3-phase power with a current rating of 25 A.
- Servo System: Four servo motors drive the machine, providing precise velocity control for the barrels and speed/tension control for the take-off and take-up reels.
- Temperature Control: The barrels are equipped with internal heat rods capable of heating up to 120°F, with integrated temperature sensors for precise control.
- Material Flow: The process starts at the take-off reel, passes through the heated barrels for calendering, and concludes at the take-up reel.
- Performance: The machine can adjust the calendering speed up to 100 inches per second and produce films as thin as 0.1mm.
Design and Features
Our machine is constructed using high-grade stainless steel and aluminum, ensuring durability and longevity. Key features include:
- Precision Servo Control: Utilizing four servo motors for accurate control over the entire calendering process.
- Advanced Heating System: Eight internal heat rods and surface temperature sensors ensure the barrels maintain the optimal temperature for PTFE processing.
- User-Friendly Interface: A 7-inch touchscreen interface allows operators to monitor and adjust critical machine parameters with ease.
- PLC Control System: A robust PLC system coordinates all machine functions, ensuring consistent operation and integration.
