The global demand for plastic pipes has grown exponentially and is set to increase for a large variety of applications. Bausano has therefore completely revamped its ranges for the extrusion of soft and rigid, transparent, super-charged or press-filled PVC, PP and PE pipes.

Bausano renews its extrusion lines for pipes
The main innovations include the launch of a new generation of extrusion heads. Bausano offers a range of models for the manufacture of PVC pipes for a maximum production capacity of 2,000 kg/h. As for the extrusion of polyolefin (PO) pipes, Bausano’s technology is designed to ensure high hourly throughput with reduced energy consumption.
Bausano’s extruders also include the Smart Energy System for heating the cylinder through an electromagnetic field, thus saving up to 35 per cent on energy.
The Bausano lines also include new end-of-line accessories such as cooling and calibration benches made of stainless steel, which are crucial to the success of the whole extrusion process, with pipes that are cut to size and have a flawless surface. Specifically, the tank for PVC pipes allows for quick and accurate positioning during processing due to the three axes, which can be easily adjusted, and the motor-driven longitudinal movement.
In the case of PO pipes, the benches are designed to calibrate and cool a wide range of diameters. Furthermore, a dual chamber configuration is available for both applications, with temperature and water level control.
VP Clemente Bausano said: “We made the decision to upgrade our extrusion lines for PVC, PE and PP pipes as we wanted to meet the demands of manufacturers that always need to ensure that their supplies are in compliance with technical requirements, without compromising on efficiency and performance. The design of the new extrusion heads and end-of-line accessories stems from our unique ability to combine process consulting, technological expertise and a passion for innovation.“
