Orderly, Controlled Raw Material Feeding for PVC Extrusion Lines

Stable extruder operation and preserved product quality in PVC cable production depend on the dry blend or compound material being fed into the line in the correct quantity and under suitable conditions. VOLDE PVC Extruder Feeding Systems aim to automatically transfer material taken from central storage points into extruder-top bins and to reliably provide the feeding needed by the lines throughout production. Thanks to a system structure that adapts to different capacities and numbers of lines, planned and efficient production becomes possible in cable facilities

| Integrated Solutions from Central Storage to Line Feeding

In cable factories, raw material is generally stored in large-volume silos or intermediate stock bins and distributed to multiple extrusion lines. Performing this distribution correctly is critically important for maintaining capacity balance between lines and reducing operator dependency. VOLDE systems aim to automatically route material from the storage point to the relevant lines and ensure the necessary feeding continuity for each extruder.

• Central silo solutions for PVC dry blend or compound
• Extruder-top bins and feed hoppers
• Line-based automatic material distribution
• Pneumatic or mechanical transfer options
• Simultaneous feeding of multiple production lines

| Controlled Feeding That Supports Line Performance

For the extruder to operate stably, the feed quantity must not fluctuate and the material must behave properly inside the bin. Insufficient feeding, overfilling, or irregular flow can lead to problems such as changes in product dimensions, surface defects, and capacity losses. VOLDE systems are designed with a feeding strategy suited to each line's consumption rate, ensuring that material reaches the extruder inlet in an orderly manner.

• Bin volume selection suited to consumption rate
• Controlled filling and level management
• Bin design suitable for preventing bridging
• Flow-assist equipment where needed
• Orderly material feeding that preserves line efficiency

| Flexible System Design Suited to Facility Layout

Every cable factory has a different layout plan, number of lines, and production organization. For this reason, the extruder feeding system must adapt not only to capacity, but also to in-plant distances, heights, and expansion plans. VOLDE solutions are engineered to facilitate integration into existing facilities and to allow for the addition of new lines in the future.

• Layout solutions compatible with existing facilities
• Long-distance transfer applications
• Infrastructure suitable for adding new lines
• Dust control and filter integration
• Low maintenance requirements and ease of operation
