Manufacturing Of PVC Pipes
Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) Pipes are fast replacing the conventional pipes due to their matchless versatility and unique features. They are well accepted in various household and industrial applications due to a favorable combination of properties like light weight, non-corrosiveness, high tensile strength, easy installation, low maintenance cost, low friction loss, etc. PVC Pipes have variety of uses in rural and city water supply schemes, tube well schemes, spray irrigation and drainage systems.
Processing of PVC Pipes
* Raw materials - The basic raw material, which on polymerization produces PVC Pipes, is compounded PVC Resin. It is rigid in its real form. However, the rigidity can be controlled by adding a certain percentage of plasticizer at the time of compounding. Other compounding materials added along with plasticizers are stabilizers, DOP, colorants, lubricants, processing acids and fillers. The process of producing PVC Pipes involves plasticizing and homogenizing PVC compound and then passing on the compounded PVC resin through an extruder.
* Process - There are four steps that are included in the manufacturing of PVC Pipes. These steps are: extrusion, sizing, traction and cutting.
* Extrusion - After the PVC resin is mixed with compounding materials in a high speed mixer, the compound resin is fed into a double screw extruder which has inserts and dies that shape it as per the required design. The compound then is passed through a heated chamber where it gets melted under the compression of the screw and temperature of the barrel. The marking of the pipe is also done at this time only.
* Sizing – The pipes produced after extrusion are cooled in the sizing operation. Generally, there are two types of sizing operation used in the manufacturing of the pipes. They are pressure sizing and vacuum sizing.
* Traction – It is the next step taken after the sizing process. This process is necessary for the continuous transportation of the pipes extruded by the extruder.
* Cutting – This is the last operation in the manufacturing of PVC Pipes where the pipes are cut according to their desired shape. Typically, two types of cutting techniques are used for PVC Pipes which are manual and automatic. They are then moved for ISI markings to get ready for dispatching.
