A wide range of solutions for customized results
The selection and careful combination of materials used are critical factors in determining the quality and performance of extruded products. Properties such as strength, resistance to aging, UV stability, elasticity, and even geometric design can be specifically influenced by the right material strategy.
Every application has its own specific requirements. That is why we analyze all relevant parameters in detail and develop customized solutions that are precisely tailored to your products and processes.
Material-specific requirements:
+ Processing of a wide range of specialty plastics, including high-temperature grades, thanks to custom-designed screw geometries
+ Reliable feeding of all product forms (powder, regrind, pellets, pellets, recycled material, etc.) through the selection of the appropriate extruder and a customized process unit
+ Minimal impact on materials sensitive to shear and temperature, among others
Product-specific requirements:
+ Tight product tolerances / high dimensional accuracy
+ Specific requirements regarding surface finish, gloss, transparency, etc.
+ Compliance with application-specific requirements for the automotive industry, medical technology, specialized piping systems, and other sectors
Process-specific requirements:
+ High extrusion speeds
+ Pressure stability
+ Pigmentation: direct coloring with high dispersion
+ Ensuring minimum and maximum output ranges
Innovation through WEBER co-extrusion technology
WEBER co-extrusion technology enables the simultaneous extrusion of multiple functional polymer layers into a single technical profile. This allows for the targeted combination of different material properties—such as load-bearing capacity, flexible functional zones, and optical or decorative properties.
Thanks to precise layer design, mechanical, thermal, and optical properties can be precisely tailored to the requirements of technical profiles—especially when high dimensional accuracy and continuous loading are required.
Our systems offer maximum flexibility: The co-extrusion extruder can be freely positioned and seamlessly integrated into existing lines, while the compact design enables space-saving implementation.
The use of grooved cylinders also improves material intake and process stability and contributes to efficient extrusion performance.
This results in flexible solutions for processing a wide variety of polymers, compounds, and composite systems with precisely adjustable profile properties.
Complete extrusion lines for engineering profiles
WEBER designs and builds custom extrusion lines according to customer specifications or based on our many years of process engineering experience. This results in comprehensive system solutions designed for maximum efficiency, process reliability, and product quality.
Our systems combine proprietary extruders and process units (barrels, screws, groove bushings, and surface coatings) with proven components from renowned partners. Depending on the application, melt pumps and filter systems can also be incorporated to further optimize process stability and product quality.
We place particular emphasis on designing process units tailored to the specific material, as well as on intelligent software solutions for a stable and efficient production process. Our proprietary control software, NEXXT365, also enables comprehensive line control—including the integration and control of third-party machines.
This results in optimally coordinated complete systems for the production of technical profiles, pipes, and hoses.
