Overproportional throughput combined with perfect product quality
41D single-screw extruder for high-performance extrusion
The real processing length of the 41 L/D offers top
performances in pipe extrusion in PE and PP processing.
The 41D line – equipped with the new C6 line control
system – offers you a wide range of benefits:
– Patented screw concept guarantees material-friendly
plasticization
– Perfect wear-resistance though bi-metal barrels
– Flexible control, intuitive and fast operation thanks to
the C6 line control system
– Maximum reliability through individual and continuous
process control

Laser micrometer
interface streamlines setup
LASERLINC has developed the
NetLinc laser micrometer interface,
which streamlines the setup process by
enabling transmission of measurement
data via a standard Ethernet cable.
One end of the cable is plugged into
a PC, laptop or all-in-one box running
Total Vu software, and the other into the
NetLinc micrometer’s Ethernet port. The
NetLinc interface can also connect a
micrometer to plant networks, streaming
the data to a Total Vu PC via standard
Ethernet TCP/IP. Connectivity of the
NetLinc interface is incorporated directly
into most LaserLinc micrometers. An
external box can be added to allow use
of the NetLinc interface with existing
LaserLinc micrometers.
With a network switch for extra
Ethernet ports, multiple boxes can be
added to a PC, and connections are
available for encoder and digital input.
LaserLinc manufactures accurate
and adaptable non-contact laser and
ultrasonic systems for OD, ID, wall
thickness, eccentricity and concentricity
across industries including wire, cable,
medical and other tubing, hose, pipe and
fibre. Its systems can reduce scrap and
waste, shorten start-up times, ensure
product quality, and provide process
improvement and optimisation.
