ESI’s Vacuum Calibration Sizing Tanks are designed for the processing of plastic profiles in a variety of rigid and flexible materials. Tanks can be supplied in a variety of cross sections and lengths with different manifold and cooling options. ESI also offers hot water annealing of the front section to minimize bow in profiles with uneven thicknesses, allowing the product temperature to drop below the glass transition point before cooling with chilled water. This greatly reduces bow and camber on many profiles.
