What Is Meter-Weight Control (Gravimeter System)?

Meter-weight control — also called gravimetric or loss-in-weight control — continuously measures how much material goes into each meter of pipe and adjusts the line to hold a steady weight per meter.

Why it matters for a PPR pipe producer:

  • Saves material by stopping the line from running overweight pipe "to be safe," where hidden material cost often builds up.
  • Supports stable wall thickness and dimensions, helping pipe pass pressure testing more consistently.
  • Reduces startup scrap when changing pipe size, batch, or production setup.

On a Jinxin Extruder line, the gravimeter control system is standard, not an add-on. How meter-weight control works →

Single-Strand vs Dual-Strand up to 63mm

For smaller pipe (≤63mm), a dual-strand configuration runs two pipes from one extruder at the same time, raising output and saving about 30% floor space compared with similar capacity from separate single-strand lines. Larger diameters up to 160mm run single-strand. Jinxin Extruder configures single-strand or dual-strand up to 63mm according to pipe diameter and output target.

Option Single-Strand Dual-Strand up to 63mm
OutputStandardHigher - two pipes at once
Diameter20-160mmUp to 63mm
Floor spaceStandardAbout 30% less for similar capacity
CostLowerHigher
Best forFull-range and larger pipeHigh-volume small-diameter runs

Decision note: Single-strand is simpler and lower-cost. Dual-strand suits high-volume production of small-diameter pipe up to 63mm and costs more because the die, calibration, downstream, haul-off, cutting, and controls must run two pipes at the same time.

PPR-GF-PPR Multilayer Option

For heating, hot-water and HVAC systems that need dimensional stability, Jinxin Extruder can configure a 3-layer PPR-GF-PPR line. A dedicated co-extruder forms the glass-fiber middle layer in line.

FAQ

FAQ - PPR Pipe Extrusion Line

01 What is a PPR pipe extrusion line?

A PPR pipe extrusion line is a single-screw system that turns PP-R resin into pressure pipe. A Jinxin Extruder turnkey configuration covers extrusion, gravimeter meter-weight control, forming, calibration, cooling, haul-off, cutting, stacking, and factory testing. It produces 20-160mm pipe for plumbing, heating, and HVAC use, with co-extrusion itemized according to the required pipe structure.

02 What is the difference between PPR and PP-R?

There is no material difference - PPR and PP-R refer to the same polypropylene random copolymer used for hot- and cold-water pressure pipe. PP-R is the formal designation, while PPR is the common shorthand. Jinxin Extruder lines produce both single-layer and multilayer pipe for projects referencing DIN 8077/8078 and ISO 15874, regardless of which spelling your market uses.

03 How much does a PPR pipe extrusion line cost?

FOB turnkey reference pricing runs about USD 40,000-62,000 for a small 20-63/75mm single-layer line, USD 55,000-95,000 for a standard 20-160mm line, and from about USD 85,000 upward for dual-strand projects up to 63mm or PPR-GF-PPR multilayer lines. Each quotation is itemized and includes a confirmed die, gravimeter, chiller, and complete downstream. Final price depends on diameter, PN/SDR, output, strand choice, co-extrusion needs, component brands, and service scope.

04 Do PPR pipes need a marking stripe?

Most finished PPR pipe carries one or more colored identification or brand stripes, so a marking-stripe co-extruder is usually required in practice. Jinxin Extruder lists this item clearly when it is included in the quotation. A glass-fiber co-extruder for PPR-GF-PPR pipe is a separate project option.

05 What is included in a turnkey PPR pipe production line?

A standard turnkey line includes the main single-screw extruder, gravimeter control, spiral die head, vacuum calibration tank, spray cooling tank, haul-off, chip-free cutter, stacker, industrial chiller, confirmed die/mold, and factory test run. Marking-stripe co-extrusion is itemized when required by the pipe specification, while PPR-GF-PPR multilayer pipe requires a separate optional package.

06 Which extruder model is used for PPR pipe production?

Jinxin Extruder uses the JF-SJ65/33 for 20-75mm pipe at 80-120 kg/h single output or 200-250 kg/h dual output for small-diameter projects up to 63mm, with about 7-8 m/min single-strand speed and 15 m/min dual-strand speed up to 63mm as reference. The JF-SJ75/33 covers 50-160mm pipe at 80-150 kg/h single output, with about 6 m/min single-strand speed as reference. Both support single-layer pipe, standard marking stripe, and optional PPR-GF-PPR layer options. The right model depends on your diameter range and output target.

07 Can one line produce single-layer and PPR-GF-PPR multilayer pipes?

Yes. The standard line can run single-layer and marking-stripe PPR pipe. With an optional multilayer co-extrusion package and multilayer die, the same project can be configured for PPR-GF-PPR pipe. The GF middle layer reduces thermal expansion for hot-water and heating systems, and the multilayer package is configured and quoted to your spec.

08 Why are some PPR pipe machine prices lower online?

Some online prices are lower because they quote only the main extruder, a basic machine, or an incomplete downstream setup. A low quote may also omit the marking-stripe co-extruder even though many finished PPR pipes require identification stripes. Jinxin Extruder lists included machines and options clearly, so buyers can compare configurations like for like.

09 What pipe diameter range can Jinxin Extruder produce?

The standard PPR / PP-R diameter range is 20-160mm, covered by the JF-SJ65/33 (20-75mm) and JF-SJ75/33 (50-160mm). This range covers the majority of plumbing, heating, and HVAC pipe requirements. Larger-output or special rigid pipe projects outside this range are evaluated separately as an individual line configuration.

10 Is this line suitable for hot and cold water pipes?

Yes. PPR / PP-R pipe is designed for hot- and cold-water pressure systems, and Jinxin Extruder lines are built for projects referencing DIN 8077/8078 and ISO 15874 with PN/SDR pressure ratings. Applications include hot and cold water plumbing, underfloor heating, HVAC and chilled water, and industrial water or compatible chemical media subject to temperature and chemical compatibility. Multilayer PPR-GF-PPR pipe adds stability for hot-water service.

11 Can the same platform run PE or HDPE pipes?

This line is configured for PPR / PP-R pipe within the 20-160mm range. For PE or HDPE pipe projects outside the standard PPR range, Jinxin Extruder can evaluate a separate line configuration. PE and HDPE use different screw, die, and downstream parameters, so they are quoted as a distinct project rather than run on the standard PPR setup.
