Plastic Polymers: Bausano Know-How for Extrusion

Thermoplastic materials for every application need

Plastic Polymers: Mechanical Performance Across the Main Extrusion Materials

Bausano, with over 80 years of experience in designing and building plants for plastic extrusion, has developed advanced know-how in processing the main thermoplastic polymers. By its chemical nature, each material requires specific process parameters, from melting temperature to operating pressure, screw type, and thermal profile. For this reason, Bausano solutions are not limited to standard lines, but are configured as tailor-made systems, optimized for processing virgin, regenerated, or additivated compounds. The goal is always to ensure high hourly output, melt homogeneity, and dimensional stability of the finished product, even under intensive process conditions or with complex recipes. Thanks to extensive in-house research and development, every configuration is designed according to the material's chemical-physical properties: hygroscopicity, viscosity, glass transition temperature, or filler content are technical elements that influence plant design. In addition, the integration of high-energy-efficiency technologies, such as induction heating or the Multidrive System, makes it possible to achieve maximum output with minimal specific consumption. This consultative, scientific approach to polymer processing is what makes Bausano an international benchmark in plastics processing.
