Introduction to ptfe teflon pipes

2019-06-12 15:19:33 | PTFE Tubing

Ptfe teflon tube extrusion machine is divided into many kinds, exactly say ptfe tube forming process has push and pressure method, extrusion method, hydraulic method, welding method, winding method, etc., which is mainly push and pressure method.Generally dispersed PTFE resin with particle size of 500 microns and apparent density of 0.45g/ml ~ 0.55g/ml is adopted.The small diameter tube chooses the compression quite big resin, the medium and large diameter tube chooses the compression quite small resin.Extruder usually choose 200 and 260 solvent oil.PTFE thermal shrinkage tube, PTFE spiral tube, PTFE steel wire reinforced hydraulic tube and so on can be produced by the secondary processing of PTFE tube.

 

1.1 common ptfe teflon pipe

Ptfe ordinary tube is made of ptfe dispersion resin at room temperature with organic solvent as extruder, and then through drying and sintering.According to the size of the pipe diameter can be divided into two types of ordinary pipe and micro pipe.Ordinary tube inner diameter > 4mm, micro tube inner diameter 4mm.

Typical formula for PTFE tube production:

Dispersed PTFE resin: 100 (weight)

Extruder: 18 ~ 24

Production process:

PTFE, extruder - mixing - pushing - pressing - drying - sintering - cooling - products.

Production process parameters:

Sintering: batch sintering, temperature rise rate of 60 / h,375 ℃± insulation for 4h.

Continuous sintering, dry area 100  ~ 250 , preheating area 250  ~ 330 , sintering area 380  ~ 420 , cooling area less than 300 .

Main equipment: mixing machine, preforming machine, vertical pushing press, drying and sintering furnace.

USES: as insulation and fluid conduit.

 

1.2 polytetrafluoroethylene heat-shrinkable tube

PTFE thermal shrinkable tube has the property of being heat-shrinkable, so it can be tightly coated on the surface of other workpieces, making the workpieces resistant to corrosion, electrical insulation and viscosity.Widely used in electrical, chemical, mechanical, printing and other industries.The maximum shrinkage of PTFE shrink tubes is reported to be more than 75%.

It is processed by disperse PTFE resin. The principle is that PTFE is subjected to stress during processing and produces forced high-elastic deformation, which is reversible and freezes at low temperature. If the forced high-elastic deformation is reheated, it will gradually disappear and return to the original state.

Typical formula for PTFE thermal shrinkable tube production:

Disperse PTFE resin 100 (weight)

Extruder 20 ~ 22

Production process:

PTFE resin, extrusion aid  mixing  storage  pre-molding  pushing and pressing  drying  sintering  cooling  heat treatment  blowing  cooling  product.

Production process parameters:

The front part is the same as ordinary PTFE tube.

Heat treatment: the quenching process of the dried and sintered pipes after further full sintering at high temperature, the temperature is 390 ℃±, and the coolant is -5 .

Blowing: at 310  or so, fill the compressed gas below 0198MPa, the blowing rate is 200% ~ 400%.

Main equipment: blowing machine, other PTFE tube and the same.

 

1.3 ptfe teflon steel wire reinforced hydraulic pipe

The common PTFE pipe will break under the pressure of about 40kg/ cm2. When it is combined with steel wire, the pressure resistance will be greatly improved. The maximum working pressure abroad reaches 700kg/ cm2.The results show that the compressive strength and pulse strength of the hose are related not only to the steel wire strength but also to the weaving Angle.When the braiding Angle is 54°44 "for single-layer braiding, the steel wire does not extend under internal pressure, the length and diameter of the hose do not change, and the pressure resistance is the best.

When used as hose for hydraulic system in aviation industry, in order to prevent electrostatic breakdown of inner tube caused by hydraulic oil flow, trace conductive carbon black should be added in the manufacture of PTFE inner tube.However, it was found that adding carbon black could not completely prevent electrostatic discharge from passing through the tube wall and increase the gap.

In the 1960s, Attas manufactured composite tubes, in which the inner layer of the tubes was a uniform mixture of conductive carbon black and PTFE, and the outer layer of the tubes was pure PTFE.This form of tube body layer has axial conductivity, so it can not only eliminate static electricity, but also prevent seepage.

The process:

Inner resin (including conductive carbon black), outer resin  blank  pushing  drying  cooling  testing  weaving  fitting joints  testing.

PTFE steel wire composite hose is mainly used in aircraft hydraulic system, air conditioning system, fuel system, lubricating oil system.In civil industry, it is suitable for soft connection of hydraulic pressure, steam pressure and steam transportation in rubber, plastic, pharmacy, clothing, shipbuilding, automobile, machine tool, motor, diesel engine and paper making industries.

 

PTFE spiral tube, also known as PTFE flexible hose, has not only all the excellent properties of PTFE, but also flexible properties.At present, there are two kinds of PTFE spiral tube and chemical fiber, stainless steel wire and plastic coated glass fiber woven reinforcement.

It is made of PTFE through secondary processing. The process is that PTFE thin-walled tube continuously rotates forward through a combination mold with a temperature of 270  ~ 280  at a certain speed.

It is mainly used for the inlet and outlet pipes of the shock parts such as the soft connection dislocation connection, serpentine pipes, pump engines and so on.Used for shielding cable and protecting cable sleeve of aircraft engine.

Machine Teflon Lining for Pipe and Fitting

2017-10-31 15:24:38 | PTFE Tubing
Teflon PTFE lining high viscosity in the gel state (it does not truly melt) prevents it from being processed conventionally in extruders or injection molding. PTFE tubing is therefore dry molded or extruded in hydraulic extruders with (paste extrusion) or without (ram extrusion) lubricants. Paste extrusion of PTFE yields flexible tubing. However, it occurs in a batch process and thus long continuous lengths are limited to the batch size, unlike the melt-processible fluoropolymers FEP, PFA and ETFE.
PTFE is highly corrosion resistant and lined equipment is used to convey the most corrosive and toxic chemicals in manufacturing plants around the world. 
This PTFE lining Extruder is to extrude PTFE lining,It keeps stable ram speed and produces precise high quality PTFE liner products. with our original technology. The PTFE liner ram extruder series from Sunkoo is able to extrude tube which dia from 20- 150mm.
Machine Teflon Lining for Pipe and Fitting
Advantages:
* Save time and money; * Advance designed; * High output; * Low energy consumption; * Long-life; * PC touch screen,extremely user-friendly operation; * The extrude PTFE tubes physical properties is stable and adjustable;
A PTFE liner, which is several millimetres thick, protects the stainless steel reactor efficiently against corrosion, even against such corrosive media as acids and alkali. PTFE is distinguished by its excellent resistance to almost all chemicals, which makes it possible to do without many expensive special alloys. This significantly reduces the acquisition costs. 
The risk of possible cross-contaminations is easier to control with PTFE liners. Metallic catalysers, such as Pt, Rh, Raney Nickel etc adhere to steel reactors and are very difficult to remove. In the following experiments the question keeps cropping up if the effects observed are really caused by the change of catalyser, contamination effects or catalyst poisoning. This problem is elegantly evaded by reserving a PTFE liner for each type of catalyser.

Reveal The Carbon Fiber Tube Forming Process

Growing demand for carbon fiber material on the market, compared with the commonly used metal or plastic, it obviously, the advantages of light weight, high strength, specific strength is four times higher than steel, not rusting, corrosion resistance, low thermal expansion coefficient, long using life. Carbon fiber tube is one of the common carbon fiber material, different processing methods, for its performance, appearance, price has a certain influence, this article, small make up just to tell you the carbon fiber molding process.

Winding molding process: after carbon fiber raw material in resin is arranged in 3 d on the preparation of instruments, as the rotation of the machine fiber interweave shape. Adjustment method, can produce the plain or twill carbon fiber tubes, appearance is very beautiful. Its shock resistance, excellent mechanical properties such as shear strength also. The manufacture process of steel tubes in the carbon fiber is the most popular on the market.

Pultrusion process: this process is the most simple, pull the carbon fiber raw material by liquid resin mixture can be, don’t need sophisticated instruments and equipment, low cost, the price is cheap, but whether it’s performance and appearance cannot be compared with the winding pipe.

Moulding process: do moulds according to the shape of the pipe size first, then made beforehand in the closed mold, carbon fiber into resin, waiting for curing. It is easy to realize automation of production, the products of high precision, but open mold will cost a lot of cost and is suitable for mass production.

In practical use, mainly ACTS as carbon fiber tube structure, such as transmission shaft, tripod, sailing mast component, golf clubs, aircraft wings. The use of carbon fiber material, of course, much more than that, it can also be processed into the purse, wallet, chair, manipulator, high iron parts, auto parts, medical equipment, in the civil and military industries were applied.
