New PVC/Acrylic Sheet Extrusion Line

Boltaron began a new high-capacity sheet extrusion line to meet demand for its PVC and PVC/Acrylic alloy sheet products while maintaining rapid delivery times. The line consists of a Milacron twin-screw extruder and a K-Tron feed system, with roll stand and ancillary downstream equipment engineered by Boltaron. Consistent with the company’s existing sheet extrusion lines, the new line produces gauges from 0.028 to .312" (0.71 to 7.92 mm), in widths to 60 in. (1524 mm) in unlimited colors and patterns.

The facility also houses a calendering operation that produces monolithic film and sheet products at high rates, and a press laminating operation in which multiple sheets of calendered or extruded sheet are fused off line to form solid monolithic or composite sheet up to 4.0 in. (102 mm) thick in unlimited colors, textures and patterns.

The company produces 50 grades of specialized sheet that offer fire ratings and physical properties required for aircraft interior applications, mass transit vehicle interiors and commercial/ industrial applications ranging from equipment enclosures and holsters to protective interior wall covering and weatherable building products.
