Solution

EPE (Expandable Polyethylene) is a foam material with excellent cushioning performance and durability, which is widely used in packaging, transportation, construction, automobile and other fields. During the production process of EPE materials, various impurities may exist in the raw materials, such as particles, foreign matter, moisture, etc. These impurities will affect the quality and performance of EPE materials, and even cause failure and shutdown of the production line.

In order to solve this problem, EPE extrusion production lines are usually equipped with plate melt filters or column melt filters. Melt filters are a kind of equipment specially used to filter impurities in molten plastics. It can effectively remove impurities in EPE raw materials and ensure that the produced EPE materials have stable quality and excellent performance.

Specifically, the necessity of using melt filters in EPE extrusion production lines is mainly reflected in the following aspects:

1. Ensure product quality: The quality of EPE materials is crucial for applications in packaging, transportation and other fields. The presence of any impurities may lead to a decline in product quality and affect the use effect. The installation of melt filters can effectively remove impurities in raw materials and ensure that the produced EPE materials have stable quality and excellent performance.
2. Improve production efficiency: EPE extrusion molding production lines usually require long-term continuous production. If there are a large number of impurities in the raw materials, the production line will be frequently shut down for cleaning, reducing production efficiency. Installing a melt filter can effectively reduce the number of production line shutdowns and improve production efficiency.
3. Extend equipment life: The equipment of the EPE extrusion molding production line usually needs to go through a long-term high-temperature and high-pressure working environment. If there are a large number of impurities in the raw materials, it will cause equipment wear to increase and shorten equipment life. Installing a melt filter can effectively reduce the damage of impurities to the equipment and extend the life of the equipment.

In summary, the necessity of using melt filters in EPE extrusion molding production lines is self-evident. By installing a melt filter, impurities in EPE raw materials can be effectively removed, ensuring that the quality of the produced EPE materials is stable and the performance is excellent, improving production efficiency, extending equipment life, and providing more reliable guarantees for the application of EPE materials.
