For consistent high vacuum during extrusion to eliminate voids and improve extruded product quality

Vacuum is a key part of Steele stiff extrusion, so the Double Tank Vacuum System uses an oil cooling circuit upgrade to maintain consistent high vacuum and improve extruded output.

High temperatures in the vacuum pump’s service oil causes its moisture to evaporate, reducing pump capacity and its ability to de-air raw material. This upgrade uses a high-capacity oil cooler, larger oil circulation pump and check valve, and high-efficiency filtration.
