PE hose

The production process of PE hose

August 30, 2023

The production process of polyethylene (PE) hose involves multiple steps, the following is an overview of the general production process:

 

1. Raw material preparation: Polyethylene is a thermoplastic and is usually supplied in pellet form. The production process begins with feeding polyethylene pellets into a hopper for subsequent processing.

 

2. Melt extrusion: In this step, polyethylene pellets are heated and melted to form plastic molten polyethylene. This molten polyethylene passes through the extruder, through a die or extrusion head, and is shaped into the desired hose shape.

 

3. Addition of braided structure (if applicable): If a PE hose with braided structure is to be manufactured, fiber materials such as fiberglass may be added to the extruded polyethylene through a braided mechanism to increase the strength and durability of the hose .

 

4. Cooling and solidification: The extruded molten polyethylene will gradually solidify during cooling. This can be accomplished by passing hoses in cooling water tanks or using other cooling methods.

 

5. Cutting and shaping: The cured PE hose may need to be cut to obtain the required length. At the same time, it may be necessary to reshape and process the end of the hose to ensure its effectiveness in connection and use.

 

6. Printing and identification (if applicable): According to needs, printing or identification may be added at some stages in the production process, such as brand, specification, usage and other information.

 

7. Quality inspection and testing: After production is completed, quality inspection and testing are usually carried out to ensure that each hose meets the specifications and standards. This may include visual inspections, strength tests, withstand voltage tests, etc.

 

8. Packaging and distribution: Through packaging equipment, PE hose will be packaged into appropriate length and form for distribution and sale. Packaging may be in the form of rolls, rolls, bundles, etc.

 

It should be noted that the production process of different manufacturers may be different, and the specific production steps and processes may vary depending on the product type, specification and technical equipment.
