Applications

Conduit Systems (Buried Underground)

• Economic production of diameters as small as 40 mm i.d.
• Suitable for nearly all single and double wall corrugated pipes

Drainage Pipes

• Excellent static properties for infrastructure (fields, roads, squares, buildings)
• UNICOR die heads ensure:
  • Homogeneous material distribution
  • Minimal wall thickness variation

Sewage Pipes

• Designed to withstand maximum loads
• Precisely formed with minimal manufacturing tolerances
• Meets all pipe standard requirements with minimal weight per meter

Uniform Operating Concept

• Standardized operating concept across all machines (UC 210, UC 280, UC 5XX, UC 800)
• Optimized utilization of machine park and personnel

Tool Compatibility & Quick Clamping System

• Compatible mould blocks with UC 210 and UC 5XX for maximum flexibility
• UNICOR quick-clamping system:
  • Enables easy and fast mould block changes
  • 50% time reduction compared to UC 315
  • Improved machine availability

High Energy Saving

• Up to 50% energy savings
• Variable speed-controlled vacuum pump
• Only 7.5 kW connected load

Highest Quality & Efficiency

• Excellent profile surface and shape quality
• Easier processing and enhanced pipe stability (even with recycled materials)
• Short dies and lower back pressure
• Higher throughput and flexibility in material selection

Highest Flexibility

• Diameter range: 40 mm i.d. – 280 mm o.d.
• Produces cable protection, drainage, and sewage pipes without productivity loss
• Mold blocks compatible with UC 210 and UC 5XX—no adapters needed

Maximum Efficiency

• Production speed up to 24 m/min
• Minimal mould block changeover time
• One drive unit for all applications
• Extremely low operating costs
• Speed-regulated vacuum pumps
• Only 20 °C cooling water inlet required

Total Process Control

• Electronic control of process air
• Registration and recording of all vacuum parameters
• Monitoring and electrical control of all water inlet/outlet pressures and temperatures

Zoomable Middle Channel

• Zoom functionality allows use of pipe size-specific mould blocks
• Enables very short dies and low back pressure
• Fully openable middle channel for easy accessibility

Continuous Water Cooling of the Mold Blocks

• Continuous cooling of aluminium vacuum moulds
• High pipe quality from production start
• Achieves process parameters with 98% repeatability
