AB Film Blowing Machine VS ABA Film Blowing Machine

AB Film Blowing Machine VS ABA Film Blowing Machine

1. Structural Design and Layer Differences

Item

ABA Film Blowing Machine

Layer Structure

Double-layer composite structure (Layer A + Layer B)

Three-layer sandwich structure (Layer A + Layer B + Layer A)

Screw Configuration

Double screws ( extruding Layer A and Layer B respectively)

Double screws (the screw for Layer A is mainly for plasticizing, and the screw for Layer B is for conveying filler)

Die Head Type

Double-layer die head, directly extruding a two-layer composite film

Three-layer die head, forming a sandwich structure where the outer Layer A wraps the middle Layer B

Core Design Objective

Functional layering (Differentiated performance of the surface Layer A and the inner Layer B)

Cost optimization (The middle Layer B is filled with a large amount of low-cost materials, and the two-side Layer A ensures the surface quality)

2. Use of Raw Materials and Fillers

Raw Material Matching

Layer A: High-quality raw materials (such as HDPE/LDPE to ensure surface performance)  Layer B: Recycled materials and fillers can be added (Proportion: 30%-50%)

Layer A: High-quality raw materials (Layer A on both sides to ensure the film surface luster and printability)  Layer B: High-proportion fillers (Calcium carbonate, secondary recycled materials, Proportion: 40%-60%)

Filler Limitation

The proportion of fillers in Layer B is usually ≤ 50%, focusing on the inner layer functions (such as antistatic property and stiffness)

The proportion of fillers in Layer B can reach 60%, and it is completely wrapped by Layer A on both sides without affecting the surface quality

Plasticizing Requirement

The two layers of raw materials need to be compatible to avoid delamination (such as soft material in Layer A + hard material in Layer B)

The flow channel of the die head is specially optimized, and it is not easy to delaminate even if there is a large difference between Layer A and Layer B materials (such as new materials in Layer A + recycled materials in Layer B)

3. Comparison of Performance Advantages

Cost Advantage

The cost is 10%-20% higher than that of a single-layer machine, but lower than that of an ABA model (The equipment investment is 20% lower)

The cost is 50% lower than that of a single-layer machine (Using low-cost materials in the middle layer), but the equipment investment is higher than that of an AB model (Due to the design of the three-layer die head)

Film Performance

The surface performance (luster, printability) is determined by Layer A, and the inner Layer B improves the functionality (such as stiffness, moisture resistance)  The transverse tensile strength is increased by 25%

The double-sided Layer A ensures high luster and puncture resistance, and the middle Layer B is not exposed. The film surface quality is better than that of the AB model  The transverse tensile strength is increased by 30%, close to that of a pure new material film

Production Capacity

The production capacity is increased by 30% compared with that of a single screw (For example, the AB-70 type is 75kg/h)

The production capacity is increased by 40% compared with that of a single screw of the same specification (For example, the 2SJ-G70 type is 100kg/h), and the feeding efficiency of the double screws is higher when they work synchronously

4. Typical Application Scenarios

Core Positioning

Double-layer film with high cost performance, balancing performance and cost

Sandwich film with low cost and high performance, extremely reducing the raw material cost

Applicable Products

- Daily packaging: Garment bags, simple outer bags for food  - Industrial film: Dust-proof film, moisture-proof bags  - Functional requirements: Antistatic and moisture-proof inner layer, glossy outer layer

- Supermarket bags: Vest bags, continuous roll bags (Requiring LOGO printing, with high surface quality requirements)  - Heavy packaging: Fertilizer bags, feed bags (The middle layer is filled to enhance the stiffness)  - Cost reduction scenarios: High proportion of recycled materials, and it needs to pass the quality inspection (Such as the supermarket access standard)

Thickness Range

0.015-0.15mm (Focusing on medium-thin films)

0.02-0.05mm (Focusing on thin films, such as supermarket continuous roll bags)

5. Summary of Core Differences

•Structural Essence: AB is "double-layer differentiated function", and ABA is "three-layer sandwich cost reduction";
•Filler Strategy: Layer B of AB serves as an auxiliary function, while Layer B of ABA is the core of cost (Higher proportion and wrapped);
•Performance Focus: AB balances the functions of the two layers, and ABA focuses on surface quality and extreme cost reduction;
•Application Scenarios: AB is suitable for basic functional layering requirements, and ABA is suitable for scenarios with high surface quality requirements and a need to greatly reduce the raw material cost (Such as supermarket packaging, heavy packaging).
When selecting a model, you can comprehensively judge according to "whether double-sided high-quality surfaces are required", "the upper limit of the filler proportion", and "the quality inspection standards of the target products".
