What is the role of the metering pump in a PP drawing extrusion production line?

The mel metering pump of a drawing machine plays a crucial role in the drawing process, mainly including the following aspects:

Flow Control

The metering pump of a drawing machine can control the flow rate of the melt with high precision. During the drawing process, the melt needs to pass through the spinneret plate at a stable and accurate flow rate to ensure that the formed filaments have a uniform diameter. By adjusting its output flow rate, the metering pump can adapt to the production requirements of different specifications of filaments. For example, when producing high-end fibers with fine diameters, the metering pump can control the flow rate within an extremely small error range to ensure consistency in the diameter of the filaments.

Maintaining Stable Pressure

To ensure the stability of the drawing process, the metering pump provides stable pressure to the melt, allowing it to flow at a uniform speed throughout the drawing system. Stable pressure helps prevent issues such as uneven thickness and breakage of the filaments. For instance, during high-speed drawing, stable pressure ensures that the filaments maintain good morphology during cooling and stretching.

To adapt to different process conditions, when the drawing process parameters change, such as adjustments to the spinneret hole diameter and stretching ratio, the metering pump can quickly respond and adjust the pressure and flow rate to maintain the stability of the drawing process. This allows the drawing machine to adapt to different production requirements and product specifications.

Improving Product Quality

Ensuring Filament Uniformity: Precise flow control and stable pressure result in more uniform filament diameters and smoother surfaces. This is crucial for producing high-quality fiber products, such as synthetic fibers for high-end textiles, where uniformity directly affects the texture, strength, and appearance of the textiles.

Reducing Product Defects: The stable operation of the metering pump reduces the probability of defects in the filaments, such as bubbles and breaks. By ensuring uniform melt flow and pressure stability, it minimizes product defects caused by flow instability and improves product yield.

Achieving Automated Production

Integration with Control Systems: The metering pump can be integrated with the automated control system of the drawing machine, enabling precise parameter control and remote monitoring. Operators can adjust the flow rate and pressure of the metering pump in real-time through the control system, enhancing production automation and operational convenience.

Improving Production Efficiency: Automated flow control and stable pressure output allow the drawing machine to maintain efficient operation during continuous production. This reduces the time required for manual intervention and adjustments, improves production efficiency, and also lowers the labor intensity for operators.
