Pipe Extrusion Line – Cosmetic Tube Extrusion Line

Description

A cosmetic tube extrusion line is a specialised plastic extrusion production system used to manufacture plastic tubes for cosmetics and personal care packaging. It continuously extrudes thermoplastic materials into tubes with a controlled diameter, wall thickness and surface quality. These tubes are then cut, cooled and processed for subsequent operations, such as shoulder moulding, printing, decoration and cap assembly.
Depending on the product design, the line can process materials such as polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer (EVOH) and multilayer polymer structures to produce tubes for different cosmetic formulations and packaging requirements.

Technical Advantages and Features

High-efficiency, stable production capacity

The production line has been designed with large-scale manufacturing requirements in mind, enabling it to meet the supply needs of various brands and ensuring continuous, stable operation.

Environmental protection and sustainability

The equipment supports the use of recycled materials and produces recyclable, single-material hoses, actively responding to global environmental trends and contributing to the circular economy.

Flexible Changeovers

In response to the growing demand for small-batch, multi-variety orders, the advanced production line supports rapid mould changes, allowing for flexible switching between products of different diameters and lengths, significantly reducing downtime and enhancing overall efficiency.

Precision Control

Thanks to a precision servo control system, the production line delivers outstanding performance in terms of cutting accuracy and wall thickness uniformity, ensuring that the tubes provide an excellent user experience during subsequent filling and use.

Applications

This production line is specifically designed for the cosmetics and personal care industry and is widely used in the manufacture of:

• Skin care products: facial cleansers, sun creams, face creams, lotions
• Make-up: liquid foundation, primer
• Oral care: toothpaste
• Hair care products: hair dye, hair masks

By integrating processes such as extrusion, decoration, shoulder moulding, and inspection into a comprehensive solution, the cosmetic tube production line not only helps businesses improve production efficiency but also enhances the quality and brand value of product packaging through sophisticated craftsmanship, thereby meeting the market’s diverse demands for high-quality cosmetic packaging.
