The window profiles are plastic frames that double-glass pane is inserted into. They are made of polyvinylchloride (PVC) with various additives such as modifiers, stabilizers, dyes to give them required operation properties.
PVC profile production is realized by extrusion method: heated polymer material is being pressed through the special molds. Cutting the profiles is made with guillotine knives.
The technology line operators face the issue of PVC material sticking onto the knives.
It is necessary to stop the whole production line in order to clean the equipment. Carbon deposits and polymer sticking onto the molding accessories decrease quality of the finished goods, and make the cutting elements wear faster.
The manufacturers of the guillotine knives for cutting window profile use MODENGY 1007 anti-friction solid-film coating. It creates a smooth anti-adhesive layer that makes knives operation easier, and prevents material sticking.
The coating doesn’t damage at mechanical impacts and equipment cleaning with aggressive substances. Single application of this product provides trouble-free knives functioning for their whole operation period.
MODENGY 1007 polymerizes at heating up to +200 °С within 20 minutes.
After applying MODENGY 1007 anti-friction and anti-adhesive coating, trouble-free operation of the guillotine knives is provided, and their service lifetime extends.You can learn more about this application case at the Portfolio.
