PET extruder degassing

Leybold PET extruder degassing delivers a wide range of product and process benefits and is now used in a wide range of sectors. The main factor behind this is the fact that the material is recyclable, but there are also economic and material criteria. The requirements for this thermoplastic to develop its full material properties are wrapped up in the PET production process. Since customers have long relied on our vacuum systems for extruder degassing, we have a massive amount of experience in this application. The manufacturers of PET extruders benefit from our effective solutions for an efficient degassing process. Dry mechanical Leybold pumps are absolutely reliable and ensure that the systems have a long service life. Extrusion systems are used for preparation of thermoplastic melt during production of plastic components as fibers, sheets, films or tubes. The raw plastic material (usually pellets or bottle flakes) is molten inside single or twin-screw extruders by heat and friction to a viscous liquid.
