PLASCO: Key Features of Nylon Monofilament Extrusion Lines

Nylon monofilament is a versatile and strong material used in various applications such as fishing nets, dental floss, and strings for musical instruments.The production process for PA monofilament involves blending the materials in an extruder, followed by extrusion from a die head, drawing, and winding, all of which occur through the use of a nylon monofilament extrusion machine.

What Are Nylon Monofilament Extrusion Machines?

Nylon monofilament extrusion machines refer to machines used in the production of nylon monofilament. They are designed to melt, shape, and cool the nylon raw material into a monofilament shape, which can be wound on spools for further processing. Unlike other machines, nylon monofilament extrusion machines use a two-stage stretching and one annealing process for PA monofilament, which is based on the unique properties of nylon. This process helps to improve the strength and durability of the nylon monofilament.

How Do Nylon Monofilament Extrusion Machines Work?

The production process essentially consists of the following steps: polymer feeding, extruding, filament forming, stretching, annealing and winding.

1. PA Material needs to be heated in the rotating container of the dryer. To control the drying process, the dewpoint exhaust air is checked continuously.
2. Granules of nylon raw material are fed into the extruder's hopper loader.
3. The granules go through a heating and melting process as they travel through the extruder, making sure to blend the polymer homogeneously.
4. Feeds the melt material under pressure and without pulsations to the spinning pump and spin pack.
5. The melt nylon material is then extruded from the nozzle plate, and shapes and cools in the quenching water bath.
6. Monofilament stretching and annealing with hot water bath and hot air oven in the process, and then wind on the spools.

Applications of Nylon Monofilament Extrusion Machine

Nylon monofilament extrusion is used in a variety of applications, including netting for fishing, sports, and agriculture, fishing lines, conveyor belts, and other industrial and commercial uses. Nylon filaments are strong, durable, and flexible, making them ideal for use in applications where strength and flexibility are required.

• Fishing line
• Netting
• Rope
• Conveyor belt
• Industrial thread
• Zip fastener
• Brush & broom
• Carpet , floor mat
• Tennis racket string

Factors To Consider When Choosing Nylon Monofilament Extrusion Machine
If you own a company that produces nylon monofilaments or are planning to start one, choosing the right nylon monofilament extrusion machine is crucial. Here are the factors to consider when choosing a nylon monofilament extrusion machine:

1. Extruder Output: Consider the extruder output of the machine. This refers to the amount of raw material the machine can process per hour or per minute.
2. Production Capacity: The production capacity of the machine should be able to meet your production needs. The production capacity calculation is based on the extruder output and filament diameter or denier. Consider the amount of nylon monofilament you need to produce per day, per week, or per month, and choose a machine that can handle this capacity.
3. Die Diameter: The diameter of the die determines the size of the monofilament produced. Ensure that the machine's die diameter can produce the monofilament required for your production.
4. Winder: Depending on the end product or on subsequent processes, monofilaments are wound in different spindle types. The quantity of spindle is based on the extrusion capacity.
5. Versatility: Choose a machine that can produce different monofilament sizes and shapes. This is important, especially if you plan to expand your production line in the future.

Case Study

Sunlarge Industries, a professional business group based in Bangalore, India, is a leading producer of synthetic monofilaments used for industrial and technical applications. They acquired a customized JC-MNN80 PA/PET monofilament extrusion line with a dual-die head and multiple winders from us in 2014 to accommodate their diverse production requirements.
