Extrusion International 2-2020

36 Extrusion International 2/2020 PIPE EXTRUSION Molecor is the leader company spe- cialized in the development of the latest technology, applying Molecu- lar Orientation to pipeline solutions. Founded in 2006, Molecor began it business focusing on Oriented PVC pipes and fittings for pressured wa- ter conveyance. But if the company has a completely differentiating ele- ment, this is, without any doubt, the possibility of manufacturing large di- ameter PVC-O pipes. It offers product ranges not previously available on the market. TOM ® pipes cover nominal diameters from 90 to 1,000 mm in 12,5, 16, 20 and 25 bar pressure. Moreover, they are certified in more than 10 coun- tries and are 100% recyclable. These points have also facilitated their ex- pansion world-wide when Molecor offered these products to the mar- ket. Largest PVC-O Pipes Manufactured in the World TOM ® pipes, from DN90 mm to DN1000 mm, best option to pressured water conveyance hand in hand with the DN800 mm. Molecor extended its product range one more time, making the largest PVC-O pipe in the world to date, posi- tioning with this achievement in this way Molecor as the largest Oriented PVC pipe manufacturer globally. The M-OR-P 5012 system is now a reality, bringing a new machine for high quality Oriented PVC pipe man- ufacture to the market with never before seen diameters. The pipelines market received the widest range of pipe diameters, which can be manu- factured up to DN1200 mm with this technology. Molecor has now ex- panded its offer with a wider choice of pressurized water solutions. Large diameters with the highest quality Class 500 As it is well-known, large size pipes are usually heavy and uncomfortable In 2010, Molecor designed the M- OR-P 3163 system. For the first time this technology offered the possibil- ity of manufacturing bigger diam- eters that had not been manufac- tured previously by the company. Before this design some tests were done with the M-OR-P 1640 ma- chine, manufacturing a 500 mm diameter tube and but they had to study the possibilities of an expan- sion on the market, maintaining the quality on their product. After that, the 630 mm diameter in Oriented PVC was born, and it still maintained the highest quality, Class 500, with- out loosing its best mechanical and physical properties. This is because the PVC-O Class, the highest, which is obtained during the manufactur- ing process. In 2013, the next technological devel- opment, M-OR-P 3180 system, went
