Longitudinal thickness fluctuation of PET film

Problem Phenomenon
The longitudinal thickness of PET biaxially stretched film fluctuates periodically, affecting winding flatness.
Cause Analysis
The extruder or metering pump output pulsates; casting drum speed fluctuates; stretching roller speed ratio is unstable; filter clogging causes pressure fluctuation.
Solution
Check the condition of the extruder and metering pump; stabilize the casting drum and stretching roller drives; replace clogged screens; use online thickness measurement feedback control.
Key Takeaway
Longitudinal thickness fluctuation of PET film originates from equipment stability.
