37 Extrusion International 2/2018 at the coiler. Part of the product portfolio are the storage options for the storage of dangerous goods such as per- oxide: a fire-protected storage PEXLINK SR and the walk- in conveying chamber. Control unit across all processes The complete PEXLINK extrusion line is operated through a control unit which integrates all system components: material conveyance, gravimetry, extruder control, in- frared oven, crosslinking degree measurement, co-ex- trusion including gravimetry, measuring technology and coiler. The line is equipped with three terminals, one on the main extruder, one on the co-extruder and one on the coiler. The oven is equipped with a separate terminal which is mirrored on all other terminals. All PEXLINK lines are available for left-handed or right-handed operation which permits the simultaneous operation of two lines by only one operator. Fastest line in the market iBA‘s PEXLINK line is the fastest line available in the mar- ket for the one-stage PEXa-pipe extrusion process. It can be ordered as HSP (High Speed), MSP (Medium Speed) or LSP (Low Speed) extrusion line. All process values and quality data are logged on an SQL-server. The data are visualized and provided to the operator via an interface. The centralized recipe handing is another specific feature. Recipes can be stored and selected easily on the terminal, the superior control unit will precisely adapt all related line components.
