26 Extrusion International 6/2020 SHEET AND FILM EXTRUSION Successful Extrusion of Clear Sheet Needs a Multi Tool It’s been over 60 years that BREYER built its fi rst extruder. Since then, hundreds of sheet line systems have been exported all over the world. Most important to the success of BREYER Extrusion Lines was a close collaboration of machine manufacturers, raw-material suppliers and sheet manufacturers A lot of details and know-how was developed this way, inuring to the bene fi t of the customers’ ef fi cient and fl exible production. In the range of crystal-clear sheets customers pro- duce worldwide highest quality, cap- turing new markets with fi rst-class products. Meanwhile, the range of applica- tion for transparent sheet is huge. Architectural applications like huge buildings and giant stadiums, green house roofs and machine coverings High performance on vented extruders To have also a good economical pro- duction result, the line starts with a vented single screw extruder with outstanding performance. As a pioneer on this field, BREYER even successfully managed to pro- cess hygroscopic materials at high specific throughputs without the necessity of pre-drying the mate- rial. This way the time- and energy consuming pre-drying becomes ob- solete. on the one side and high sophisti- cally applications like TV and com- puter screens, mobile phones and LED panels for illumination panels on the other side. Recently another application has been added to the picture: Sheet for the personal pro- tection in of fi ces, hotel receptions and supermarkets. To produce sheet for all this differ- ent markets and requirements the extrusion line must be like a multi tool.
