The EPS Continuous Pre-expander Machine is used to pre-foam EPS beads by heating them with steam, allowing for adjustments in foaming density and producing high-quality expandable polystyrene for various applications.
The pre-foaming process involves weighing EPS beads in batches, introducing them into the machine where steam is applied to expand them, allowing for precise control over the foaming density.
Using EPS raw materials with low pentane content (3-4.5%) reduces environmental impact and improves safety during the pre-foaming process compared to traditional materials (6-7% pentane).
Yes, the foaming density can be adjusted by changing the quantity of raw materials, steam heating time, EPS bead height in the machine, steam pressure, and the steam-to-air ratio.
The control mode for batch foaming includes regulating steam pressure (0.1 to 0.6 bar) for low density and controlling steam temperature (85 to 99 °C) for high density, along with air mixing.
The foam produced can be used in packaging, insulation, and construction materials, as well as in various consumer goods where lightweight and thermal insulation properties are required.
Yes, this small foam production line is designed for efficient small-scale production, making it ideal for businesses looking to produce EPS in limited quantities.
Regular maintenance includes cleaning the steam lines, checking the pressure gauges, inspecting seals and fittings, and ensuring that all electrical components are functioning properly.
The output capacity can vary based on the specific model and settings, but it is designed to handle small to medium production runs efficiently.
Yes, the machine includes safety features such as pressure relief valves, emergency shut-off controls, and safety interlocks to ensure safe operation.
Yes, this production line is designed for continuous operation, allowing for efficient and uninterrupted production cycles.
The power requirements depend on the specific model, but typically, it operates on standard industrial power supplies. Check the product specifications for exact details.
The pre-foaming time can vary based on the density settings and batch size, but typically it takes several minutes per batch.
Yes, the machine can be customized with various options and settings to meet specific production needs, including adjustments for different raw materials and output requirements.
The warranty period typically varies by manufacturer, but it usually covers parts and defects for a specified duration. Check the product documentation for specific warranty details.
