Project Introduction — PET Sheet Extrusion Line for Peru
Project: 1000 kg/h PET Thermoforming Sheet Production Line — Peru Model: CJWS95-1300 PET Sheet Extrusion Line Application: Thermoforming sheet (vacuum-formed packaging) Location: Peru (South America)
1. Customer Background & Pain Points
The customer is a well-established thermoforming packaging manufacturer in Peru. With steady growth in food, daily-goods, and pharmaceutical packaging across the local and Andean markets, the company is facing three critical challenges:
- Urgent capacity expansion: Existing lines are running at full capacity and can no longer absorb incoming large-volume orders. A new high-output, continuous-production line is required to capture additional market share.
- Higher sheet quality requirements: Downstream brand owners demand tight thickness uniformity, excellent transparency, low gel count, and food-grade hygiene — specifications that ordinary lines cannot reliably maintain.
- Equipment stability & ease of maintenance: Local technical service resources in Peru are limited. The customer needs a robust line capable of long continuous operation, with low failure rates and simplified maintenance, to minimize downtime and lost output.
2. Solution — CJWS95-1300 PET Sheet Extrusion Line
To address the customer’s core demands for higher capacity, premium sheet quality, and rock-solid stability, we engineered the CJWS95-1300 PET Sheet Extrusion Line with a designed output of 1000 kg/h, purpose-built for large-scale production of thermoforming-grade PET sheet.
Key Configuration Highlights
- High-capacity extrusion system: A high-efficiency single-screw extruder delivers uniform plasticization and stable melt flow, ensuring continuous 1000 kg/h production and giving the customer the headroom to fulfill the spot and order growth.
- High-precision die & calender system: A coat-hanger T-die combined with a multi-roll calender stack controls sheet thickness to tight tolerances, delivering excellent thickness uniformity, high transparency, and minimal gels and flow marks — fully meeting the quality demands of premium thermoforming.
- Fully closed-loop automatic control: Centralized PLC control with an intuitive HMI touchscreen continuously monitors and auto-adjusts critical process parameters, eliminating operator variability and ensuring batch-to-batch consistency.
- Reliable drive and temperature control systems: Internationally branded critical components combined with high-accuracy temperature control adapt to continuous-duty operation, lower failure rates, and simplify maintenance — particularly valuable for overseas factories where on-site technical support is harder to dispatch.
- Automatic winding system: Auto-cutover and precise tension control with large-diameter rolls reduce roll-change stoppages, further boosting effective output.
