<strong>CPP</strong> <strong>extrusion</strong><br />
base material for metallizing, laminating, and converting<br />
Cast polypropylene films are the base<br />
for a variety of packaging applications.<br />
Produced mostly as three-layer or<br />
five-layer structures, they need to have<br />
excellent transparency for subsequent<br />
printing and laminating as well as low<br />
gauge variation for metallizing. Typical<br />
applications include films for bags<br />
and pouches, wrapping films, textile<br />
bags, candy wrap, antifog and peelable<br />
structures.<br />
Automatic resin supply and gravimetric<br />
dosing systems for up to six<br />
components are placed directly above<br />
the individual extruders. <strong>SML</strong>’s range<br />
of extruder diameters and L/D ratios<br />
match the viscosities to make sure that<br />
the materials processed give consistent<br />
high-quality melt for perfect film<br />
properties.<br />
Feedblock technology and automatic<br />
dies in combination with beta-gauging<br />
sensors are standard features. Web<br />
stability is enhanced by means of the<br />
<strong>SML</strong> vacuumbox, the use of electro-<br />

static edge pinning, and an airknife or<br />
softbox. The casting section makes<br />
sure that the polypropylene film obtains<br />
all properties such as excellent<br />
clarity and gloss, low haze, wide hot<br />
tack range, low seal initiation temperature<br />
and tolerances and is, finally, easy<br />
to convert.<br />
The casting section is designed to<br />
minimize vibrations and allows for<br />
high production speeds, in the case<br />
of <strong>CPP</strong> rates around 350 m/min, line<br />
speeds being limited by raw material<br />
properties. Edge trimming and inline<br />
recovery assure the best possible use<br />
of the raw material. Corona treatment<br />
is necessary for subsequent converting<br />
steps such as printing, metallizing,<br />
or lamination.<br />
<strong>SML</strong>’s series 2000 winders will, at the<br />
very end of the process, wind small or<br />
large-diameter rolls with the possibility<br />
of part bobbin slitting. Fully automatic<br />
shaft, roll and core handling are additional<br />
features for efficient cast film<br />

<strong>extrusion</strong> systems. <strong>SML</strong>’s reliable series<br />
1050/1100 and 1200 turret winders<br />
are used in <strong>CPP</strong> lines as alternative.<br />
<strong>SML</strong> cast film lines are equipped with<br />
the latest servo-drive technology, and,<br />
of course, feature the <strong>SML</strong>’s control<br />
system. As all lines are tested at <strong>SML</strong><br />
prior to delivery, we can ensure fast and<br />
reliable installation and startup at our<br />
customer’s site.
