Extrusion and co-extrusion of plastic materials
Extrusion and co-extrusion of plastic materials are among Nuova General Plast’s key competences. The company manufactures technical profiles and customised components for multiple industrial sectors. Thanks to high-efficiency extrusion lines and constant monitoring of process parameters, it can produce complex, high-quality parts, ensuring dimensional stability, consistent quality and long-term performance. Each extruded profile is designed in collaboration with the customer, taking into account the most suitable material, operating conditions and functional requirements of the finished product. The goal is to achieve an optimal balance between strength, flexibility and geometric precision while maintaining maximum production efficiency.
Extrusion process
The plastic extrusion department uses automated equipment capable of processing a wide range of thermoplastics and engineering polymers, with single- and twin-screw configurations. Control of temperature, pressure and throughput parameters ensures a homogeneous, defect-free product. Thanks to a precision cooling and calibration system, Nuova General Plast delivers finished extruded profiles with consistent quality that fully meet the customer’s technical specifications.
- Production of profiles, tubes and gaskets in thermoplastic materials
- Processing of rigid, flexible and filled materials
- Manufacture of complex cross-sections with tight tolerances
- Continuous process monitoring for maximum dimensional uniformity
Multilayer co-extrusion
Co-extrusion makes it possible to combine several materials in a single profile, achieving different mechanical, aesthetic and functional properties within the same component. This technology enables the production of multilayer structures that enhance the performance of the final product while reducing production costs. The flexibility of the co-extrusion process allows the development of customised, high-performance solutions, ideal for applications where lightness and strength must coexist.
- Combination of materials with different stiffness or colours
- Profiles with differentiated surfaces or integrated finishes
- Combinations of recycled and virgin materials for greater sustainability
- Improved mechanical strength and thermal stability
Application sectors
Products made by extrusion and co-extrusion of plastic materials are used in a wide range of industrial sectors. Each profile is designed to ensure durability, dimensional accuracy and optimum performance even under demanding operating conditions. With the ability to customise shapes, colours and materials, Nuova General Plast can meet the most diverse production requirements.
