EVO Aqua Cool

Maximum transparency through rapid cooling.

With EVO Aqua Cool you produce highly transparent film thanks to the quick water cooling effect, as the crystallization of the melt is strongly inhibited or even prevented. Further benefits: high gloss, extreme puncture and tear resistance as well as best thermoforming properties.

EVO Aqua Cool: Perfect for you if you

attach importance to highest optical film properties.

want to produce particularly robust and at the same time thermo-formable film.

want to serve special applications in the food or medical sector.

Blown film the other way around

What is the difference between conventional blown film lines and EVO Aqua Cool? Following the force of gravity of water, the extrusion direction is reversed - vertically from top to bottom. The film tube is inflated to the desired diameter and then quickly cooled down by water running down the bubble, thus creating the special optical and mechanical film properties. The water is then removed from the film with the help of negative pressure (vacuum). Our optional Ultra Flat or Ultra Stretch features allow you to optimize stiffness, barrier function or flatness during further processing - without compromising transparency and formability.

Highlights

Producing with EVO Aqua Cool

Automation

Automatic bubble profile control and water-vacuum calibration ensure a stable process.

headline
Demanding applications

Excellent transparency, gloss, puncture resistance and thermoformability for demanding applications such as food packaging or medical infusion bags.

headline
Save raw material

Due to the particularly high performance of the individual film layers, they can be designed thinner. This saves you valuable raw material. Furthermore, cheaper raw materials can be used (e.g. homopolymers instead of expensive copolymers).

Optionale Features

How to use the full potential of your EVO Aqua Cool blown film line

Increase performance? Optimize film properties? Reduce manufacturing costs? With our Ultra Features you get the best out of your line.

EVO EVO

EVO Ultra Flat

No more bagginess or camber: With our EVO Ultra Flat take-off, you simply produce perfectly flat film - energy-efficient with moderate stretching of a few percent. This speeds up subsequent printing and lamination processes and saves adhesive and printing ink.

EVO EVO

EVO Ultra Flat Plus

The perfect combination of moderate stretching for film flattening and stretching up to 100 percent to enhance specific mechanical properties - depending on the desired application. You can achieve both with our EVO Ultra Flat Plus stretching unit in perfection and with high energy efficiency.

EVO EVO

EVO Ultra Stretch*

Produce fully recyclable packaging films based on PE mono-material. With our EVO Ultra Stretch stretching unit, you can reach a new level with maximum stretching of up to 1:10. Improve the mechanical properties of your film. Achieve the same function as PET films with standard PE films, as an example. Thus you can replace PE/PET with PE/PE mono composites for 100 percent recyclability.

*Can also be used as EVO Ultra Flat.

EVO EVO

EVO Ultra Quench

For high transparency, formability and puncture resistance, water-cooled film is unbeatable. With our EVO Ultra Quench high performance water cooling and calibration unit you get maximum process stability with low energy and water consumption.

EVO EVO

EVO Ultra Extruder

Process all raw materials. Our EVO Ultra extruders combine maximum flexibility with high throughput. The wide temperature range from 20 to 250°C in the feed zone makes it possible.

EVO EVO

Ultra Flat Measurement

Achieve ideal film flattening easily and quickly. With our automatic flatness measurement you can adjust your EVO Ultra Flat stretching unit comfortably and reproducibly via HMI input. The laser-supported inline measurement reliably determines the measured flatness value and takes over the precise adjustment of all parameters.
