German specialty chemicals manufacturer Lanxess has put into production a new thermoplastic special composite material production line in Krefeld-Uerdingen production base in Germany. Lanxess invested nearly 7 million euros in development of the new production line, which is expected to increase the plant's annual production capacity by 10000 tons per year.
The factory's existing composite production line provides a supplement, which exclusively produces Krefeld-Uerdingen polyamides and PBT composites under Lanxess Pocan brand.
The production line includes a twin screw extruder and a equipment specially used for raw material feeding, quantitative feeding, cooling and classification applications.
Lanxess said the new line is also suitable for producing high-mineral composites, which are often used in heat-conducting shell parts.
Lanxess also plans to open another composite material production plant in Changzhou, China, with annual capacity of 25000 tonnes next year.
