Zipper Profile (Resealable Packaging) Extrusion Lines

Turn-Key Extrusion Lines For Re-Sealable Zipper Profiles

Boston Matthews has developed a complete extrusion line for the production of "Zipper" Profiles for use within the reseable packaging industry such as pouches, zip lock bags etc

The extrusion of Zippers is complex due to the precise 'interlocking' characteristics of each element of the zipper and with the final zipper tolerance requirements. It is essential that every element of the
extrusion line performs with precision consistency at all times.

All types of Zippers specifications/construction are capable of being produced including PE, PP, EVA, 1 layer, 2 layers, 2 layers with coloured strip etc

We work with you at every stage of the project.

Understanding Zipper Extrusion

The extrusion of Zippers is a highly specialist area and a complete understanding of the requirements is essential in order to provide the best turn-key system.

Boston Matthews fully understands :

Zipper Construction
Polymers associated with Zippers
The Quality requirements of the final Zipper
Expected production outputs.

A Complete Turn-Key Solution

Boston Matthews design and manufacture the complete extrusion line for Zippers include the complex tooling and specialised drying equipment giving you the benefit of Single-Source Supply.

Your Exact Production Requirements

Boston Matthews understand that customers requirements differ from one another.

We listen to the exact needs and requirements of all customers and this is reflected in the choice of equipment we are able to provide.

Whether the Zipper is to be produced as a single profile or as two through to Medium Speed and High Speed Line Options

Options in Line Speed

Boston Matthews understand that customers requirements differ and therefore we have developed Zipper Extrusion Lines to meet with these differing output production demands:

Medium Speed Zipper Extrusion Line

High Speed Zipper Extrusion Line

High Speed Automatic Winding Technology

When high speed zipper production is required Boston Matthews has developed an fully automatic high speed winder allowing customers to produce Zippers at the highest possible speeds.

Co-Extrusion Technology

Boston Matthews has extensive knowledge of co-extrusion which is necessary when Zippers require adhesive, coloured strip etc

Extrusion Line Control

Using Boston Matthews Colour PLC SMART Control production data and quality can be recorded and exported for traceability.

The ability to log production conditions and to export to various platforms such as Ethernet, SCADA, Excel, etc gives you and your customers the information you need when you need it.
