The demand for MDO-PE film as a replacement for BOPET to produce mono-material and therefore fully recyclable packages is constantly increasing; COLINES® responds to this need with its new series of PE-d Polycast® lines, dedicated equipment for the production of cast MDO-PE film.
Cast MDO technology has been used by COLINES® since the late 1980s; this experience lead to the development of revolutionary (and patented) technology that significantly improves the quality of MDO-PE film (all our previous releases HERE), but above all makes the production much simpler than other current solutions on the market.
The new serie of PE-d POLYCAST® lines is the most effective and efficient solution for the production of MDO-PE film, guaranteeing extremely fast set-up times compared to current technologies and the possibility of recovering scrap directly in-line without affecting the quality of the final film. COLINES’ PE-d POLYCAST® can be furtherly enhanced with the AI-based virtual production assistant Mastermind (find out more about Mastermind HERE).
A unique feature of the COLINES® PE-d POLYCAST® lines is also the possibility to produce asymmetric MDO-PE films, with a sealing skin-layer and with final film thicknesses even up to 100 micron, which allows to extrude a package that is not only mono-material but even mono-film, avoiding the lamination process. This is something COLINES® already showed at K 2022 and which was furtherly improved over the last two years, remaining unrivalled by any other machine manufacturer. So far, COLINES®’ MDO PE is the only one which proved to be 100% suitable for perfect printing processes.
The chance of extruding blown-grade resins, which are easily available in the market, makes COLINES® lines ideal for anyone wishing to enter the MDO-PE market with a product with excellent characteristics and the certainty of having a fast investment pay-back.
COLINES® has a test cast-line equipped with state-of-art technology ideal for film production featuring an energy-saving MDO unit.
