The operation of a flexible pipe making machine typically involves several key processes, including material feeding, heating, extrusion, cooling, and finishing. Initially, raw materials such as resin pellets or granules are fed into a hopper, where they are gradually melted through controlled heating.
Die design is a critical factor in the efficiency and quality of the roll forming process. A well-designed die will minimize the wear and tear on both the die itself and the roll forming equipment. It will also ensure that the metal is evenly distributed throughout the profile, reducing the likelihood of defects such as warping or weak spots.
