New Products

Featured below are examples of specially designed plastic extrusion machines that target the specific application and process requirements of our customers.


	Puller-Cutter combination unit for medical tubing. CDS has recently introduced a Puller-Cutter combination unit designed for extruded "non bump" medical tubing applications. The stainless steel CDS Medical Combination Servo Belt Haul-Off/Servo Fly-Knife Cutter unit combines precision cutting accuracy and durable pulling capabilities on FDA approved belts in an efficiently designed small footprint. Its accurate cut-to-length of +/- 1/64th inch (0.03 cm), a maximum cut length of 9999.99 inches (254m) and a minimal cutting capacity of 0.100 inch (0.254cm), meet all of the precise requirements for the medical tubing extrusion industry. Its easy blade replacement access channel allow for safe blade removal while reducing maintenance downtime. A high precision lubrication system ensures superior product consistency and overall quality. The innovative CDS Medical Servo Belt Haul-Off/Servo Fly-Knife Cutter Combination Unit provides high precision cutting and efficient extrudate pulling capabilities together. For more details, contact CDS.

*The "ARC", Inline Multi-angle Saw* Whereas the traditional method for rendering angled edges on post-extruded profiles is to use a miter saw offline, CDS's ARC (Angled Repositioning Cuts) saw is used inline to create the same result. Read more.

	The ComboCooler When one of our customers needed a flexible and reliable cooling solution for their extruded application, CDS was there to help. Designed to cool rubber automotive seals, this specially designed unit incorporates a “hot” tank, with mixing valves that blend plant chilled water with hot water from a reservoir with four immersion heaters under the tank to maintain a controlled temperature.
