My role involved operating extrusion machines for the production of stretch film with varying pre-stretch percentages ranging from 120% to 400%. Stretch film was manufactured through a process called blown extrusion, which involves extruding molten plastic resin through a die and inflating it with air to achieve the desired properties. The die is loaded manually into the silos, and for each type of stretch film we need to produce, we ensure the silos are filled with the specific material required for that particular product. This process involves carefully selecting and loading the appropriate raw materials to meet the desired film specifications.
