Improve Blown Film Production Efficiency with Precision Air Cooling

In blown film extrusion, effective cooling is essential for maintaining film quality, bubble stability and production efficiency. High ambient temperatures and inconsistent cooling air can restrict extrusion speeds, reduce output and affect the mechanical properties of the finished film.

iCHILL’s specialised process air cooling systems deliver a consistent supply of cooled air to the extrusion air ring, helping manufacturers maintain stable production conditions throughout the year.

By reducing and controlling the cooling air temperature, these systems can improve film cooling efficiency, enhance product consistency and enable higher production speeds without compromising film quality.

How the System Works

The system combines an industrial water chiller with a dedicated process air cooling unit. Chilled water circulates through a high-efficiency cooling coil, removing heat from the incoming air. A blower then delivers the cooled air to the extrusion air ring, providing controlled and consistent cooling of the blown film bubble.

AIRTECH HOW IT WORKS

General specifications

  • Large cooling surface area for maximum heat exchange
  • Internal diffuser for low air speed
  • Washable air filter
  • Droplet separator
  • Drain pot for condensing water

Key Benefits

  • Increased Production Output – Improved cooling performance can support higher extrusion speeds and increased productivity.
  • Improved Film Quality – Consistent cooling helps maintain bubble stability and uniform film properties.
  • Year-Round Performance – Controlled cooling air temperatures reduce the effects of seasonal ambient temperature variations.
  • Greater Process Stability – Reliable cooling conditions support consistent production and fewer process interruptions.
  • Improved Operating Efficiency – Optimised cooling can increase production capacity and improve overall manufacturing efficiency.
