Production process of UHMWPE outrigger plate
Production process of UHMWPE outrigger plate
The production of UHMWPE outrigger plate usually adopts compression molding process. The basic steps of the process include:
1. Preparation of raw materials: Polyethylene granules of very high purity are selected to ensure the quality of the final UHMWPE outrigger plate.
2. Mixing and molding: The polyethylene granules are mixed evenly with the additives and then placed into the mold for high temperature and high pressure molding. Due to the high molecular weight of UHMWPE, special equipment and techniques are usually required to ensure that the material fills the mold evenly.
3. Cooling and Removal: The molded mat is cooled and removed from the mold, followed by post-processing. The post-processing may include grinding, trimming, etc. to ensure dimensional accuracy and surface smoothness.
4. Inspection and Packaging: The UHMWPE outrigger plate are subject to strict testing to ensure that their performance indicators meet the relevant standards, and then packaged and ready for shipment.
