Plant
The plant consists of two lines with diameters from 90 to 355 millimeters (mm) one and 400 to 900 (mm) the other, which have a total processing capacity of 800 kilograms of polyethylene per hour.
Technology
The assembly of an extrusion technology by molds makes it possible to obtain attachments that couple at their two ends to the same number of tubes (flange holders) and parts to minimize or increase the flow rate of a conductor (linear reduced).
products
- Pipes mm: (90, 110, 160, 200, 250, 315, 355, 400, 500, 630, 800, 900)
- Connections: (tee, yee, elbows, spreaders and special pieces)
- Joints: Joints are joined by thermofusion, a relatively fast and simple process that does not require additional materials.
