Factory Optimization Through Simulation Modeling
Blog - Maillefer
Managing bottlenecks is vital for efficient production. New simulation tools cut through the uncertainty. With SimFactory, you balance production towards peak efficiency.
Heat Shrink Tube
Cable & Wire ends need to be insulated once they have been joined or connected. A heat-shrinkable tube is easy to slip over the conductor, and then retracts tightly around it when heat is applied, thanks to the inherent memory of the material's shape. The extrusion line is designed to produce thermoset heat-shrinkable tubes, with multi-layer and striped constructions for a variety of overall diameters and wall thicknesses.
Aerosol Tube
Spray cans and bottles are equipped with a small tube through which the container contents are projected outwards. The extrusion line, which calibrates the inner bore to exact dimensions, is equipped with a cutter for conditioning short tubes in precise lengths.
District Heating
District heating is an effective means to provide public access to efficient energy sources. We propose complete manufacturing systems for DH pipe production to manufacturers eager to meet the growing demand. The DH pipes are typically constructed of PEX dual feed and return cores insulated with foam PUR and jacketed with a protective outer layer.
Beverage Tube
Soda and beer fountains are connected to barrels and gas bottles through a maze of flexible beverage and return tubes. Automated extrusion lines help you produce the tube in a way that keeps your fixed costs at their lowest, while helping your customers keep their beverage flowing.
Garden Hose
The common gardener's water hose can be more or less complex. Single-layer or multi-layer, color or stripe coded, cord reinforced, burst strengthened, lightweight construction, flat or round, safe to drink from, etc. The list of hose types is long. The extrusion line to produce them is therefore configured accordingly.
