Extrusion International 4-2020

50 Extrusion International 4/2020 EXTRUSION BLOWN FILM Being an engineering company, ALEKO is engaged in a full cycle of equipment production such as: design en- gineering, software development and selection of elec- tronic components, assembly of final products including the whole metalworking process. The own engineering bureau and the company’s focus on the customer needs, allow promptly design the new models of equipment as well as to edit the existing ones to solve specific cus- tomer’s tasks. Aleko’s own service team ALEKO is always ready to implement assembly and commissioning works. The owner of the company, Alexey Dokukin: “ALEKOMa- chinery specializes in individual solutions, but not in the mass production of machines – such things as selection of screw and barrel, cooling system, automatic thickness control system, dimensions of the extrusion line. Further, the software adjustment is possible (e.g. supplementary menu features, additional languages, display color etc.) taking into account the customers expectations. Such ap- proach makes it possible to solve effectively customer’s tasks and provide upcoming high quality service mainte- nance at every stage of ALEKO equipment operation.” Beside the product’s quality the increasing attention is paid to equipment’s production capacity. This means that the task of a scaled up product’s output per time unit is getting urgent. The existing model range of ALEKO blown film machines (more than 30 models) is popular at the market due in no small part to its high productive capacity even in standard configuration. High speed blown film line ALEKO BIO Extrusion blown film line “Aleko Bio” is able to process modern biodegradable polymers based on PLA as well as bio-polymers obtained from corn or potato starch. For the first time this model of extrusion line was presented at K 2019 Fair generating public interest and has already found its customer from Germany. Especially for this machine a new screw was designed which can gently process bio-material without overheat- ing it ensuring increased elasticity and strength of film. Keeping the quality of film, “Aleko BIO” provides the pro- ductive capacity of up to 220 kg/h with screw 65 mm and 200 mm die head, which is a unique result at the market of biodegradable films. Along with that, the versatility of this machine is also worth noting. In spite of the fact that the screw was de- signed for biodegradable material, it can be successfully used for LDPE processing as well. High Speed Blown Film Extrusion Lines Made in Russia ALEKOMachinery is the largest manufacturer of polymer processing equipment in Russia, which has been holding leading market positions in Russia and CIS countries over the past 10 years actively continues to conquer foreignmarkets. Blown film extrusion lines of this manufacturer have been successfully operating in Germany, Bulgaria, and Vietnam The Aleko booth at K 2019
