UNITEK is the leading provider of crosshead technology
for the extrusion industry worldwide.
Our product line includes:
CROSSHEADS
k for single layer extrusion
k for co-extrusion of skin or stripe
k for dual layer extrusion
k for dual layer plus co-extrusion of stripe/skin
k for triple layer extrusion
k for triple layer extrusion plus co-extrusion of stripe/skin
k Crossheads with intermediate tool for the separated extrusion of two identical
k or different materials in one head, like bedding plus sheathing compound.
k Crossheads for the extrusion of fluoro-polymers (single layer extrusion,
k skin co-extrusion and stripe co-extrusion)
k Furthermore UNITEK offers a number of crossheads for special applications
k like heads with heating/cooling shells for rubber extrusion or heads for extremely
k thin wall single or multi-layer extrusion.
SUPPORT TROLLEY/SUPERCARRIAGE
The UHT is a multi versatile piece of equipment used in
many applications. For instance as base trolley for colour
changing systems, head support for large heads or as base
trolley for screen changer bypass combinations.UNITEK CROSSHEADS
are available from size 4 (UXH4) to 140
(UXH140) with maximum outer diameter
of the finished product from 0,05 [0,002”]
to 140mm [5,511”]. All crossheads are
designed for fixed centered tools, whereas
certain heads are also available with manual
adjustment.
CARTRIDGES
In addition to the standard type cartridges we offer special designs in order to
meet the requirements of a huge number of applications:
k Standard cartridges for PVC and PE
k LV cartridges for low-viscosity materials such as polyamide and polyurethane
k HFC cartridges for high-viscosity materials, especially for
k halogen-free, fire-resistant materials or highly filled PVC.
TOOLS
UNITEK extrusion tools are made of
state-of-the-art materials only such as
tungsten carbides and tool steels with or
without diamond inserts and are famous
for their extreme accuracy and durability.
We offer a large variety of tool designs
from standardized to fully customized
tools in order to meet every extrusion
requirement.
Peripheral Equipment
Cartridge Extraction Device CED
The CED helps to simplify disassembly, cleaning and
reinstallation of crossheads. This significantely reduces the
time involved in these processes and adds considerable
safety to both operators and equipment.
HEAD CHANGING SYSTEMS
Designed for quick product change, based on the head
changing principle as well as head-in-head designs shortens
the down-time and brings the line back in operation within
a few minutes.
AUTOMATIC COLOUR CHANGING SYSTEMS
Available for all kinds of products including extremely thin
wall automotive wires allowing to change from one colour
to another at full production speed without having to stop
the extrusion line. Resulting in no down-time, minimized
scrap and highly improved productivity. Depending on the
product and the requirements, one can choose from about
two dozen different systems. The right selection will mainly
be subject to necessary adjustments such as basic colour,
stripe colour, wall thickness and insulation material as well
as the frequency of the colour changes.
Uniclean
Uniclean is a micro-granulate blasting system which
provides a careful and quick cleaning of screws, crossheads
and all other contaminated parts.
SPECIAL PRODUCTS
Bypasses UBP
The UBP is a discharge valve with alternatively hydraulic, pneumatic or
manual actuation. Installed as a separate unit between the extruder and
the head they serve for the diversion of the melt stream and a pressure
release inside the crosshead for an easy start-up and shut-down of the
production process.](https://image.slidesharecdn.com/cb358948-2016-46f4-b059-6c2ccfbda26b-160722150819/85/UNITEK-Overview_CDN-2-320.jpg)
