Layout of XPS Line

The layout of different models is almost the same. We will also make some minor adjustments to the layout according to your plant situation.

Excellent Quality and Reliability

The quality and reliability of ECOFELTM is recognized by Fortune 500 groups, and leading worldwide XPS manufacturers. This includes UNIDO (United Nations Industrial Development Organization), Owens Corning.

As a strategic partner of UNIDO and their quest to phase-out the usage of HCFCs in XPS production, USEON is providing global support for multiple projects.

Fully Automatic Raw Material Handling System

Continuous and uniform feeding is a key step in producing excellent products. All recipe changes can be done using digital settings. Incorporated with our DCS intelligent control system, it manages production parameters and controls cost more effectively.

Our integrated vacuum loading system and raw material handling solutions can be customized according to individual factory circumstances. This ensures excellent housekeeping and a clean environment throughout the facility.

Material Handling

TDS-D High Torque Twin Screw Extruder

In comparison to typical domestically produced compounding twin screw extruders, our extruders are very different, as we adopt TDS-D series high torque, which brings the specific torque of our extruders up to 10.3 Nm/cm3.

Our high torque twin screw extruders offer many advantages as follows:

  • Maintain the lowest possible melt temperature during processing
  • Minimize the usage of flame retardant additive whilst maintaining the same flame retardancy level
  • Keep the colour of the product bright and fresh
  • Excellent for producing high compressive strength boards

Highly modularized barrels and screws as well as blowing agent injection flange allow TDS-D twin screw extruders to have wider flexibility and suitability. All CNC manufactured barrels and screws assure the precise fit, providing excellent mixing and dispersion as well as optimum residence time distribution (RTD). This all saves additive usage, in addition to enhancing product quality.

TDS-D High Torque Twin Screw Extruder

Innovative Cooling Single Screw Extruder

Temperature control is extremely important when extruding foam. The innovative barrel design of our latest single screw extruder has increased cooling capacity by 80% compared with traditional designs.

In addition to our super cooled barrel design, our latest screw profile increases renewal rate of molten materials, ensuring the cooling efficiency and homogenization of the polymer, yet decreasing the power consumption by 30%.

Blowing Agent System

Strike the Balance Between Cost and Quality.

Variable physical properties of CO2 make accurate metering a challenge. It involves temperature and pressure control, mass flow rate control, and a fine balance between processing parameters.

We have designed a CO2 system which controls all the key parameters, to ensure precise metering. Our multiple blowing agent injection system allows you to shift the product portfolio easily, quickly adjusting to suit different market conditions. This also assures constant quality and cost control, therefore maximizing your profit margins.

Downstream

We provide complete downstream systems, including calibrator, haul-off, edge trimming, cut-off, stacker, and auto-packaging system. We customize the downstream system according to customer requirements, also adapting to existing building. Surface planner, surface groover, embossing, shiplap edge, and tongue & groove edge accessories can be online or offline to suit the product being produced.

Downstream

DCS Intelligent Control System

A Prelude to Industry 4.0. Pulling data from recipe management and operation history, then optimizing the parameters using big data. Extracting data from maintenance records and alarm history, remote analysis and technical support can easily be done through such notifications.

DCS intelligent control system helps you manage your production and maintain your equipment more effectively. Powerful industry PC leads your XPS production into the Big Data Era.

FAQs

Our TDS135-TDD500 can yield 3,000kg/hr.

ECOFEL series XPS foam board machine can work with CO2, ethanol, DME, HFC, HFO, butane, pentane and LPG etc. Usually the portfolio of different blow agents is recommended to reach the balance of product cost, easy operation and thermal conductivity.

We can guarantee the lowest density of 25kg/m3, and highest density of 50kg/m3. However, we have clients can make it lower than 25kg/m3 and higher than 50kg/m3.

Our XPS machine is able to produce the compressive strength more than 1,000KPA.

Our full series of lines can produce from 10-200mm thickness directly. However, each model has its own suitable range, therefore thickness range of targeting market is the key determining factor when selecting machine.

The international standard width is 600mm, some countries have 1200mm and 900mm width. In principle, any width can be produced by changing die or adding slitting machine.

The thermal conductivity (lambda value) falls between 0.024-0.038 W/(m·K), depends on the recipe of solid raw materials, portfolio of blowing agents, as well as thickness of the boards.

Yes, this line has to work 24 hours. Because every start-up will take a couple of hours to heat up and waste at least one hour of scrap.

It varies from model to model. Generally, 70m x 8m x 8m is the minimum requirement for production line only. Minimum 2,000sqm is required for the whole plant.

The number of personnel required for each production line varies based on its output and whether it is equipped with an automatic packaging machine.

Typically, if you don't opt for automated packaging equipment, you'll need an additional 4 workers to ensure the smooth operation of the production line.

 

Here is a brief introduction to these positions:

  • Feeding & Forklift Operator: Transports raw materials to the feed bin, he needs to know how to operate a forklift.
  • Machine Monitoring: Monitors the operational status of the main machine and performs basic operations.
  • Crosscut & Milling Operator: Controls the stability of XPS boards dimensions.
  • Packing Operator: Manually packs products in the absence of an automatic packaging machine.
  • Palletizing & Forklift Operator: Stacks and arranges finished products neatly into the finished goods warehouse.
  • Granulation and Regrind Operator: Processes waste and trimmed materials during production into granules for reuse.
  • Main Machine Operator: Adjusts system parameters when changing product specifications.
  • Mechanic and Electrician: Maintains and repairs machinery to ensure the smooth operation of the production line.
Yes, we do. We provide 10-100kg/hr lab line for foam extrusion. The final product can be sheet, board or beads.
