The roller is the core component of the extruder. Extruder machine is a mechanical equipment used for processing plastics, widely used in the production of plastic films and materials. The roller plays a crucial role in the extruder and helps in the production of various plastic products. The application of rollers in extruders mainly includes the following points.

1.Plastic extrusion. After putting plastic raw materials into the extruder, the rollers begin to operate. Through the heating and squeezing action of the roller, plastic materials are extruded into sheets, films, etc.

2. Rubber extrusion. The extruder roller has good heat resistance and wear resistance, and can extrude rubber materials into the desired shape, such as rubber tubes, rubber strips, or other rubber products.

3. Granulation. The extruder roller can not only extrude particles into shape, but also form granular items from raw materials. Under the heating and squeezing action of the roller, the raw materials melt and form granular recycled materials through the mold, which are used for the reproduction of plastic products. 

4. Cooling. In addition to the heating effect of the rollers in the extruder, the participation of cooling rollers is also required before plastic or rubber products are formed. Cooling rollers can cool rubber products, enhance their stability, and prevent deformation.

Overall, rollers are commonly used in extruders for extrusion, heating, and winding of rubber and plastic products, and are indispensable components in the production process of rubber and plastic products. Roller is helpful for precision processing of rubber and plastic products, improving production quality. If you need to customize the extruder rollers or more, please consult Futian Roller.
