The line includes an automatic vacuum loader, single screw extruder, straw extrusion die, vacuum cooling calibration tank, servo haul-off cutting machine, flying knife cutting system, chamfering machine, opening machine, and industrial chiller.
The straw is formed by a customized extrusion die and then passes through a vacuum cooling calibration tank, which helps stabilize the outer diameter, inner diameter, and overall shape.
Yes. The servo haul-off and flying knife cutting system allows the cutting length to be set and adjusted through the control system for consistent straw length.
The chamfering machine processes the straw ends to make them smoother and more suitable for final use in tumbler and bottle applications.
The V-shape opening machine creates a customized opening or slot on the straw end according to the product design requirements.
The production capacity is approximately 10–40 kg/h, depending on material, straw size, process settings, and production conditions.
Yes. Besides tumbler straws, the line can also be used as a small diameter plastic tube extrusion line for similar tube products.
