The screw and barrel system is the melt-preparation core of the PET sheet line, controlling throughput, melt homogeneity and intrinsic-viscosity stability for downstream calendering.
The T-Die is the sheet-forming heart of the line, distributing melt across the full width with precision thermal uniformity and online-adjustable lips for closed-loop gauge correction.
The J-type three-roll polishing calender is a sheet-finishing unit that defines final surface quality, gauge uniformity and optical clarity through precision roll-gap and roll-temperature control.
The online thickness gauge is a non-contact measurement system that provides real-time, full-width thickness data and closed-loop corrections back to the extruder screw and die-lip bolts.
Inline silicone oil coating is an in-line functional coating process that adds release, anti-static or barrier functionality to PET sheet for downstream thermoforming, lamination and electronics applications — without transferring the substrate off-line.
The 4-station winder is an uninterrupted reel-changeover system that ensures continuous winding at high line speeds, maintaining tension consistency and clean edges for downstream slitting and converting.
JWELL’s PLC/HMI integration ties every subsystem — extruder, dryer, die, calender, gauge, coater and winder — into one coordinated control layer for recipe management, traceability and remote diagnostics.

APET and CPET sheet is the workhorse of bakery, ready-meal, fresh-produce and frozen-food packaging — combining glass-like clarity with food-contact compliance.
APET (transparent, easy thermoforming); CPET (crystallized, ovenable, heat-resistant up to 220°C).
JWS150 single-screw + crystallizer + dryer (APET) or CJWS95 twin-screw dryer-free (CPET); J-type calender with chrome mirror rolls.
Bakery clamshells, ready-meal trays, fresh-produce punnets, frozen-food packaging, beverage bottle base cups.
Medical-grade PETG and APET sheet is a rigid thermoforming substrate that forms the tray and lidding structure of sterile-barrier packaging for medical devices and diagnostic consumables.
PETG (preferred — high toughness, deep-draw thermoforming); APET for less-demanding medical lidding.
Twin-screw dryer-free configuration; J-type calender with mirror rolls; Class 10000 (ISO 7) cleanroom-side handling; optional inline anti-static coating.
Surgical instrument trays, diagnostic device blister, pharmaceutical secondary packaging, IV-bag port covers.
Anti-static and dimensionally-stable APET and PETG sheet protects sensitive electronic components during shipping and shelf life, replacing PVC in most regions.
APET or PETG with anti-static masterbatch (10⁹–10¹¹ Ω surface resistivity).
Inline double-sided silicone-oil coating for release; optional conductive coating; J-type calender with precise gauge control (±0.003 mm).
IC tray, PCB blister, consumer-electronics clamshells, display-protection film, label base film.
RPET sheet — made from post-consumer bottle flakes and edge trim — supports brand-owner recycled-content mandates and reduces virgin-PET demand while preserving food-contact compliance when properly processed.
RPET (post-consumer bottle flakes, edge trim, PCR-content 30%–100%).
Dehumidifying crystallizing dryer + twin-screw extruder with vacuum venting for IV stabilization; IV-loss control <0.05 dL/g; optical-sorting pre-checked flakes.
Private-label food trays, beverage bottle base cups, sustainable blister clamshells, RPET-content cosmetic and personal-care packaging.
A PET sheet extrusion line is an integrated polymer processing system that converts PET resin into continuous flat sheet through seven coordinated stages — dehumidifying crystallization drying, twin or single-screw extrusion, T-Die forming, three-roll polishing, online thickness gauging, optional silicone oil coating and four-station winding — producing APET, CPET, RPET or PETG sheet for downstream thermoforming, blister packaging and lamination.
APET (Amorphous PET) is transparent and glossy, used for food packaging and blister trays. CPET (Crystallized PET) is heat-resistant and ovenable, used for ready-meal trays. RPET (Recycled PET) is made from post-consumer bottle flakes, supporting sustainable packaging. PETG (Glycol-modified PET) has higher toughness and easier thermoforming, used for medical devices and electronics.
JWELL’s CJWS95 twin-screw extruder reaches a measured output of 1500 kg/h on PET sheet; the JWS150 single-screw configuration reaches 1700 kg/h. The twin-screw configuration can run without pre-crystallization drying, saving up to 30% energy versus single-screw + crystallizer + dryer setups.
The integrated online thickness gauge — infrared/laser or beta-ray — maintains thickness tolerance within ±0.003 mm through closed-loop feedback to the extruder screw speed and die-lip bolts. The HMI records thickness curves for quality traceability and process optimization.
Inline silicone oil coating is typically specified for release film, medical blister sheet, label base film, anti-adhesive protective film and electronic packaging film. JWELL’s coating unit supports both single-sided and double-sided application with gravure or comma-bar heads, hot-air drying and optional CCD inspection.
JWELL PET sheet extrusion lines comply with CE and UL electrical safety standards. The line is suitable for producing food-contact sheet meeting FDA 21 CFR 177.1630 (US) and EU Regulation 10/2011 (EU) when food-grade raw materials and additives are used. Critical components are sourced from Siemens, ABB, Schneider, NDC and Scantech.
JWELL operates service centers and subsidiaries across China, Southeast Asia, India, Turkey and Latin America. Each PET line undergoes a Factory Acceptance Test (FAT) at the Suzhou facility before shipment, with on-site commissioning, operator training and a 12-month warranty supported by 48-hour spare-parts dispatch.
A standard single-screw PET sheet line typically ships within 90-120 days from order confirmation; a twin-screw or multilayer co-extrusion configuration typically ships within 120-150 days. Engineering review and customized widths, multilayer structures or specialty coating modules may extend the lead time.
