W. Müller: Quality pays off

Recently W. Müller was able to complete a new project successfully and to the satisfaction of their customer. W. Müller was approached by a customer about problems in his production. He had difficulties with the quality of his products, which were produced with the technology of a market companion.

The cause could be localized after a few days, whereupon we retrofitted his machine with a new W. MÜLLER S2/60-120 CoEx4 head with two horizontal and two vertical W. MÜLLER extruders.

The problems were solved, but with them another negative side effect that the customer never noticed:

The wall thickness of his barrier layer was supposed to be about 0.07 mm. At the thickest point, however, it was 0.11-0.13 mm.

With the new W. MÜLLER technology, the layer thickness can now be produced between 0.07 and 0.076 mm.

Thanks to optimum extrusion and the extrusion head, this amounts to a saving of 5,400 kg of material over 150 days.

Assuming the current prices for barrier materials, the customer has been able to save around €35,000 through this adjustment.

In addition, the same article can now be produced 1.7 seconds faster.
