INNOVATION IN THE STRETCH FILM FIELD: THE CLING PRODUCED ON CAST LINESThe stretch 'cling' film market (i.e. for applications in the food industry), characterized by specific features of spring back in transversal and longitudinal direction, has been so far dominated by PVC or linear PE produced on blown lines that, thanks to biorientation, are indeed able to give the product the required properties.
Colines have developed a particular formulation able to reach the same performances in terms of mechanical characteristics on cast lines, with obvious advantages from the point of view of productivity, as well as of the spaces employed. In particular, recent tests on Handrollex®-1000 lines have allowed to reach an excellent quality with film ranging from 10 ÷ 14 µm at speeds up to 700 m/min, with outputs over 500 kg/h.
The 'secret' of such film, of course, lies not only in the raw materials, that are anyway indispensable for the characterization of the product, but also in the utilization of the latest COLINES® technologies in the field of stretch film: the Bigmouth® trims recovery systems with very high energy efficiency and without material degradation, allowing to process any raw material without any problem; the HandSpeedy® winder for the production of hand and machine reels; the extruders with latest generation "barrier profile" screws; the cooling system with chill-roll and vacuum box optimized for high speeds.
