EDI® Ultraflow™ I Coextrusion Feedblocks

EDI® Ultraflow™ I Coextrusion Feedblocks

Our fixed geometry feedblock is a proven design, enhanced by a collaboration of coextrusion expertise between our world-class design engineers and industry partners.

Overview


The Ultraflow™ I feedblock premiered in 1992 and has been our most successful feedblock design since. Its robust design and favorable performance in the field has made it the preferred standard for numerous film and sheet producers worldwide. 

Why choose a fixed geometry coextrusion feedblock?

Fixed geometry feedblocks are well-suited for dedicated processes or those with a low number of product changeovers. When a change is required, feedblock inserts may be exchanged without having to disassmble the feedblock from the production line. 

Features at a Glance

Designed to Meet Your Needs
Arrange Layer Sequences Customizable with an optional selector spool
Control Flow of Split Streams Flow inserts are profiled to optimize the layer distributions
Create Uniform Layers By changing flow inserts and plugs as well as using flush inserts the layer sequences can be changed. Alternatively, selector spools, optional in the design, enable layer sequence arrangements to be preset upstream of the feedblock’s combining point
Establish Entrance Locations Controllable linear valves allow for highly precise layer ratio changes
Multiply Layers Compatible with the EDI® Layer Multiplier system
Designed to Suit Your Process
Ideal Applications Barrier Film, Barrier Sheet, Extrusion Coating & Laminating, CPP Film, Stretch Film, Sheet
Layer Ratio Adjustability (without downtime) ± 10%
Maximum Number of Extruders 8
Maximum Number of Layers 13

Benefitting Your Process

Optimize Layer Ratio Stability


In the Ultraflow™ I feedblock, polymers are combined in a parallel path manner. 

Increase Uptime


The Ultraflow™ I feedblock has an accessible flow insert design, which minimizes routine cleaning procedures and downtime for layer sequence changes.
