Foam-skin – physically foamed fluoropolymers

The fluorocarbon resins properties are further enhanced by physical foaming and allow the production of LAN Cat 5-7 cables, data transmission cable, signal cables and micro-coax cables for very special applications.

Main technical features:

  • Drawing machine with conductor pre-heater
  • High temperature main extruder HTR.45 31D with TR.30 24D auxiliary extruder foam-skin extrusion
  • Additional auxiliary extruder TR.30 24D to support skin-foam-skin process
  • Water cooled gas injection unit for the constant gas injection at controlled pressure for even foam structure
  • Compact fixed centering crosshead particularly designed to allow foamed fluoropolymer flow
  • Additional crosshead to support PE skin-foam-skin technology
  • Efficient and controlled cooling gradient trough with integrated haul-off unit
  • Automatic dual take-up for high speed line
