PVC corner bead equipment should match the profile angle, wing design, perforation or mesh arrangement and final installation method. A generic profile description is not enough to define the die and downstream operations.
Begin with a dimensioned drawing and, when possible, a representative product sample. Mark the surfaces, holes, mesh or reinforcement features that affect installation and quality inspection.
Typical equipment scope
- Material feeding and preparation when required
- Extruder and corner-bead die tooling
- Calibration and cooling arrangement
- Haul-off and length control
- Inline or secondary perforation where specified
- Cutting and collection equipment
- Optional mesh feeding or assembly interface for the defined product
Included tooling and perforation components should be listed separately in the proposal.
Information needed for a proposal
- Dimensioned corner-bead drawing and sample
- PVC formulation information available
- Angle, wing width, thickness and profile length
- Hole shape, spacing and perforated area
- Mesh material and attachment method when applicable
- Straightness and visible-surface requirements
- Cutting and bundle format
- Target production rate
- Voltage, frequency and phase
- Factory utilities and available floor space
Frequently asked questions
Can perforation be completed inline?
That depends on the hole pattern, profile speed, material behavior and required edge quality. Supply a drawing of the perforation pattern for review.
Can the line make corner bead with mesh?
Mesh handling and attachment must be defined as part of the product process. Provide the mesh specification and a sample of the finished assembly.
Which dimensions are most important?
Mark the angle, wing width, material thickness, hole pattern and any fitting surface on the drawing. Also state how the customer will inspect the product.
