The disadvantages of applying melt pumps in woven bag production mainly include the following aspects:
Material Requirements:
The application of melt pumps may be limited when processing plastics containing fillers or special modifiers. This is because melt pumps have strict requirements on the dispersion of components, compatibility with plastics, and abrasiveness.
Materials containing large particles, abrasive fillers, or reinforcing agents cannot be processed using extruders equipped with melt pumps. This is because the filler particles within can easily form material plugs, which cannot pass through the inter-tooth gaps of the melt pump's engaging gears. This can lead to plugging of the material plugs and abrasive wear on the teeth, resulting in rapid damage to the melt pump.
Complex Structure and High Cost:
Compared to some simple conveying equipment, the structure of melt pumps is relatively complex, leading to higher manufacturing costs.
In terms of installation, maintenance, and repair, melt pumps may require a higher level of technical expertise and more time and effort, which also increases their operating costs.
Technical Challenges:
The application of melt pumps in woven bag production requires precise control of operating parameters such as rotational speed and pressure to ensure the stability and continuity of the extrusion process. This requires operators to possess a certain level of technical skill and experience.
During use, melt pumps may encounter technical issues such as gear wear and seal failure, which need to be promptly identified and addressed to avoid affecting production efficiency and product quality.
In summary, although melt pumps have many advantages in woven bag production, they also have some disadvantages. Therefore, when deciding whether to use melt pumps, it is necessary to comprehensively consider their advantages and disadvantages, as well as production needs and economic factors. At the same time, attention should be paid to the maintenance and upkeep of melt pumps during use to ensure their long-term stable operation.
