Corrugated Pipe Production Line

Corrugated Pipe Production Line

The corrugated pipe production line is a specialized system designed for the efficient and high-quality production of corrugated pipes made from materials such as polyethylene (PE), polyvinyl chloride (PVC), or polypropylene (PP).

Description

Introduction

The Corrugated Pipe Production Line is an industrial manufacturing system used to produce corrugated plastic pipes with ribbed or wavy outer surfaces.

 

Features

Fast molding speed
The Corrugated Pipe Production Line use efficient single-screw or twin-screw extrusion systems, combined with closed chain track mold molding machines, to support high-speed operation. Under the Φ16Φ110mm conventional single-wall corrugated pipe specifications, the production speed can reach 1525 meters/minute.

 

High efficiency and energy saving
Our products use variable frequency drive systems to automatically adjust power output according to actual production loads. The screw adopts a barrier structure design, with high melting efficiency and uniform plasticization. The unit energy consumption is controlled between 0.22~0.26kWh/kg, which saves more than 15% energy compared to traditional systems.

 

Wide range of applications
The outer corrugation of the produced corrugated pipe is accurately formed and the inner wall is smooth, which can be used in a variety of scenarios such as threading pipes, drainage pipes, and automotive wire protection pipes.

Key Components

 

1. Extruder:

The line is equipped with one or more extruders, typically single-screw or twin-screw, depending on the material being processed. The extruder ensures consistent melting and extrusion of raw materials.

2. Corrugator:

The corrugator forms the characteristic corrugated shape of the pipes. It consists of forming molds that work in coordination to shape the pipe as it passes through the unit. The cooling system ensures dimensional stability during the process. One of our corrugated pipe molding machine specification as listed:

FAQ

Q: What types of plastic materials can be used in a corrugated pipe production line?

A: The production line is compatible with HDPE, PP, and PVC materials. HDPE and PP are typically used for drainage, cable protection, and sewage pipes, while PVC is used in low-pressure or non-pressure systems.

Q: What is the difference between single-wall and double-wall corrugated pipes?

A: Single-wall pipes have a corrugated outer surface and a hollow interior, offering flexibility and lightweight properties-ideal for cable conduits. Double-wall pipes have a smooth inner wall and corrugated outer wall, providing higher mechanical strength, suitable for underground drainage and sewer systems.

Q: What is the diameter range of pipes the line can produce?

A: Depending on the line configuration, pipe diameters can range from 16 mm to 1200 mm. Small-diameter lines (e.g. 16–63 mm) are used for cable protection, while large-diameter lines (e.g. 200–1200 mm) serve infrastructure drainage.

Q: How is the pipe formed into a corrugated structure during production?

A: The molten plastic is extruded into a corrugator with closed-loop molding blocks, which form the pipe into a continuous corrugated shape under vacuum and cooling. This ensures high dimensional accuracy and surface uniformity.

Q: What is the typical production speed of a corrugated pipe production line?

A: Production speed varies by pipe size and material. For small pipes (e.g. 16–50 mm), speed can reach 20–30 meters per minute. Larger pipes run slower (e.g. 1–5 meters per minute) due to cooling and forming time requirements.
