Line designed for mono or multi-filament. Reported only ran about 400 hrs for trials of 200-4000 denier nylon 6, PP, HDPE but should be able to run other resins.
Tenacity range reported to exceed 10 depending upon draw ratios. Ran fine deniers mostly with capacity limited to ~100 pph / extruder but could be higher with heavier deniers or for staple fiber production.
Production Capacity:
For finer filaments, it can do about 170Kg/hr.
For the 2000-2500 denier, 300-320Kg/hr.
NOTE: Line was previously operating with downstream accumulators and drawtwisters but these items are no longer available.
Takeup winders or crimper & cutter could be added to complete a filament or staple line.
