Comparison of the characteristics of IXPE gas heating foaming machine and electric heating foaming machine
Because the thickness of IXPE products is generally 0.1~5mm, and most of them are thin products of 1mm, in order not to affect the quality of the products, the foaming machine generally adopts a combination of horizontal foaming machine and vertical foaming machine. The advantage is that IXPE can be naturally foamed under no resistance except its own gravity, and the obtained IXPE products are fully foamed, with fine cells and perfect appearance.
There are two heating methods for the foaming machine: Electric heating foaming machine and Gas heating foaming machine.
IXPE electric heating foaming machine and gas heating foaming machine are both excellent foaming machines, but they also have their own characteristics. Each enterprise can choose the type of foaming machine that is more suitable for its own enterprise according to its own infrastructure conditions.
