Extrusion
Key components for the highest film quality
The highest film quality is not achieved by individual components, but by the precise interaction of all systems. Hosokawa Alpine offers perfectly coordinated key technologies for film extrusion – from high-performance extruders and screen changers to blow heads.
Thanks to the modular design principle, systems can be configured precisely to your requirements: flexible and uncompromising in terms of quality and performance. Each component is designed to support the maximum performance of the complete system while enabling minimal downtime.
Die head
Fastest product changeover on the market
Shortest purge times guarantee the fastest available product changeover on the market. The optimized arrangement of the melt feeds ensures exceptionally high melt homogeneity, eliminating helical distribution lines. The result: films with excellent optical quality combined with the best film thickness tolerances, even in individual layers.

Extruder
From high performance to gentle shear
The right extruder technology for every application: the HX Flex is the all rounder, delivering the perfect balance between performance and melt quality. The HX Select is the specialist for applications requiring low shear and cooler melt temperatures.

Screen changer
Compact design, up to 800 bar maximum pressure
Compact design, small footprint, and short melt lines. The permissible maximum pressure of 800 bar enables the highest possible output rates. The screw can be withdrawn through the screen changer, saving time on cleaning and retooling.
