P.I.F. Technologie

The DC-1040 Single Layer Crosshead can feature an 8-flow, 4-flow, easy-flow, or spiral helicoid for balanced flow distribution of base material, 1040 is as versatile as the 1030 but with P.I.F Technologie, Same tips and dies as used in B1 series (See chart below). If you have a customizing question.

Future Ready by Design

As extrusion lines evolve, your equipment should evolve with them. The DC-1040 crosshead is compatible with next‑generation materials, smart‑line integration, and automated process monitoring systems with P.I.F. It’s not just a piece of hardware—it’s a platform for the future of extrusion.

If you’re looking to elevate your extrusion performance, the DC‑1040 Single Layer Extrusion Crosshead with P.I.F. Technologie (Port‑In‑Flow) is the upgrade that transforms your line from “good enough” to world‑class precision and efficiency.

The DC‑1040 is engineered for manufacturers who refuse to compromise. Its Port‑In‑Flow architecture delivers exceptionally stable material distribution, dramatically reducing turbulence and eliminating the dead zones that typically cause inconsistencies in wall thickness. The result is perfectly centered, uniform extrusion—run after run, shift after shift.

Why the DC 1040 Stands Apart

Unmatched Flow Stability P.I.F. Technologie ensures a smooth, laminar melt flow, giving you tighter tolerances and superior concentricity without constant adjustments.
Faster Changeovers, Less Downtime The crosshead’s streamlined design allows rapid tooling changes and easy cleaning, keeping your line running and your productivity high.
Material Savings That Add Up With improved centering and uniformity, you can confidently reduce material over usage—cutting costs without sacrificing quality.
Built for Demanding Applications Whether you’re producing wire & cable, tubing, or specialty profiles, the DC 1040 delivers the consistency required for high performance and high compliance products.
Rugged, Reliable, and Operator Friendly Precision machining, robust construction, and intuitive operation make the DC 1040 a long term asset that boosts both output and operator confidence.

The Bottom Line

The DC‑1040 with P.I.F. Technologie isn’t just a crosshead—it’s a productivity engine. It gives you the accuracy your customers demand, the efficiency your operation needs, and the reliability your bottom line will thank you for.

If you’re ready to step into the next generation of extrusion performance, the DC‑1040 is the tool that gets you there.
