PLC-controlled extrusion line

custom-madetapemono-filament

Product overview
AGRIPAK spinning lines for raffia, textile monofilament and strapping tape combine extrusion and spinning/stretching processes to produce tapes, monofilaments, ropes and twines from polymers such as PP, HDPE, PE, PA and PET. The product range builds on decades of experience in extrusion-spinning and horizontal stretching for industrial textile and packaging applications.

Product families and applications

• WOVENTAPE – woven raffia tapes from PP or HDPE for textile and packaging uses
• POLYTWINE – rafia extrusion for ropes and twines
• MOFIL – monofilament production in PP, PE, PA or PET for technical textiles
• PLASTICSTRAP – strapping tape extrusion in PP or PET for packaging

Line technologies and components
Each line is modular and configurable. Typical components include:

• High-efficiency extruders sized to production requirements
• Spin packs and precision T-dies for uniform melt distribution
• Stretching and embossing units with adjustable godet widths (400–1500 mm)
• Optional fibrillation systems for fiber/textile finishing
• Winding and take-up units with controlled tension management

Automation and Industry 4.0 features
Lines are controlled by a central PLC and proprietary operator software with remote update capability. AGRIPAK integrates Cobrak.AI for production monitoring and optimization, enabling real-time quality control, predictive maintenance, automatic process adjustments via AI and integrated cameras, and cloud-based data logging and analysis.

Typical outputs and uses
Applications include woven raffia tapes, monofilaments, ropes, twines and plastic strapping used in packaging, technical textiles (e.g., fishing lines, synthetic turf backing), housewares (brooms, brushes) and other industrial products.
