Polyurethane Extrusion Services

Polyurethane Extrusion

Polyurethane extrusion process allows the manufacture of extruded polyurethane profiles, seals and wear belts with complex geometries and longer lengths. In addition to the round and polyurethane vee belts (used to replace rubber drive belts) that are commonly found on the market. Our outstanding polyurethane extrusion capabilities enable us to produce hollow polyurethane round belts, Non-standard extruded polyurethane sheets, and custom special polyurethane profiles.

The polyurethane extrusion process produces TPU profiles with excellent mechanical properties, flexibility, abrasion and chemical resistance. This provides a reliable and efficient solution for customer-specific applications.

PU Extrusion Capabilities

In order to meet the market demand for urethane drive belt and fast delivery, we keep stock of standard size round drive belts, PU v belts, and can provide custom extruded polyurethane services for non-standard polyurethane products, such as irregular shape extruded profiles, t-cleats, thermoplastic polyurethane sheet, stringer bar capping etc.

Our different flow rates of polyurethane extrusion equipment and experienced engineers and skilled technical operators. This allows us to meet the unique needs of each customer. From initial design to final production, our team works closely with you to ensure the final product exceeds your expectations.

Advantage of Extruded Polyurethane

Extruded polyurethane products made from thermoplastic polyurethane elastomers (TPU) have a smooth surface finish, which allows for the continuous production of longer polyurethane profiles, increasing efficiency and productivity, and is especially beneficial for mass production.
  • TPU Raw materials are environmentally friendly and recyclable.
  • Good processing performance.
  • Good elasticity and excellent wear resistance.

Polyurethane Extrusion Process

Polyurethane extrusion is the process of heating dry polyurethane raw material, extruding and plasticizing it under the action of a screw through an extruder head and die. Extruded polyurethane is used to produce continuous hollow tubes, sheets, Sealing strip, guide strip, cables and profiles made of polyurethane.

Extruded polyurethanes are flexible in design, allowing complex shapes and geometries to be easily realized to meet specific customer needs and application.

Extruded Polyurethane Products Examples

PU v Belt
Polyurethane v-belts are widely used in industrial belt drives. Usually, extruded V-belts are also welded to the conveyor belt as guides or supports, or they can be mounted directly to belt pulleys for drive applications.
Redthane Belt
Redthane vee belting mainly used for lightweight transmission, it can replaces solid round belts, Its characteristic is a middle bore, it can be connected an endless belt by metal fastener or heat welding.
Polycord Belt
Polycord round belts have good flexibility, elasticity and mechanical strength. They can be used for both conveying and driving. Our food-grade transparent extruded round belts are widely used in the food processing industry!
Conveyor Belt Cleats
Belt cleats are extruded from TPU polyurethane elastomer with a T-shaped design for improve belt incline conveying and material control. Belt Cleats can be attached to conveyor belts using hot welding, chemical bonding.
Polyurethane Sleeve
Polyurethane roller sleeves is the perfect solution for logistics and transportation rollers. TPU sleeves is elastic and easy to install; it is wear-resistant and oil-resistant, which can reduce the damage of the items in the process of conveying.
Polyurethane Stringer Bar Capping
Polyurethane stringer bar capping is made from extruded polyurethane. it's specifically designed to cover the stringer bars on vibrating screens to protect the steel stringer bars and prevent excessive wear and damage to the bottom of the screen cloth.

Application scenarios of PU Extrusion

Polyurethane v-belts have excellent abrasion resistance, which reduces downtime for tile manufacturers due to frequent belt replacements, reduces energy loss in the drive process, and improves productivity.
Polyurethane belts have excellent elasticity, abrasion resistance and oil resistance, which can reduce the impact of noise and vibration on the fan as a whole, making the fan run more smoothly and quietly.
PU belts in food grade, which widely use in ketchup packaging line, milk packaging line, egg conveyor, fish conveyor, donut conveyor, onion conveyor, candy conveyor, pear conveyor, blueberry conveyor, canning line, cheese conveyor, pizza conveyor, tomato conveying line, peanut grading conveyor.
Urethane belts are used for packaged cereal conveyor. conveying syringes, peanut grading machine, conveying packaged oats cereal, soda can line, conveying light bulbs, conveying egg cartons and other roller conveyor.
Polyurethane round belts are used to convey all kinds of electronic parts in the assembly line of electronic products, ensuring efficient and accurate material transfer.
Polyurethane V-belts and round belts are used as drive belts on straight conveyors, roller curves, transfer conveyors and parallel conveyors due to their excellent abrasion resistance.

Quality Control of PU Extrusion

The quality of polyurethane extruded products depends on the formulation of the TPU elastomer raw material, the design of the extrusion mold, the temperature and pressure of the extruder, the screw size and other process parameters control.

Our strict process control and raw material quality control have enabled us to pass the ISO9001 system certification. Our company maintains a wide range of cooperative relationships with international first-class material suppliers, such as Wanhua Chemical, INOV, BASF, Bayer, and Covestro, which also enables us to maintain a very strong competitiveness in the development of new materials and the application of new technologies.

PU Extrusion

The hardness range of thermoplastic polyurethane elastomer raw material is 70~95 Shore A, we can develop and custom extruded polyurethane profiles in various shapes and sizes for industries manufacturer or OEM customer.

We can provide one-stop services from molds design and mold manufacturing to product production. We can also provide feasible polyurethane extrusion solutions for customers with special performance requirements such as anti-static, hydrolysis resistance, high transparency and food grade.

What is the MOQ for custom polyurethane profiles?

Our minimum order quantity depends on the specific product type and production requirements. Generally, it ranges from several hundred meters to several thousand meters.

How long is the production cycle for custom PU profiles?

Usually, the production cycle is 2 to 4 weeks, but the specific time will be affected by factors such as the order quantity and the complexity of the product.

How do you ensure the quality of polyurethane extrusion profiles?

From raw material to the production process of polyurethane extrusion and mold manufacturing, we carry out strict inspections at every step to ensure that the product size meets your drawing requests.

Can you provide samples of polyurethane profiles?

Before confirming the order, we can provide you with samples, but you may need to bear a certain sample cost.

How is the price of polyurethane profiles calculated?

The price is mainly calculated based on factors such as material cost, production process difficulty, and order quantity.

What sizes of TPU profiles can you provide?

We can extrude various profiles, sealing strips and wear-resistant strips with regular and irregular cross-sectional areas. The gravity of extruded profiles does not exceed 1KG, and the maximum width does not exceed 130mm
