Custom Plastic Extrusions

We do it all! When your design calls for Custom Plastics Extrusions, we can tackle the toughest jobs. We have been doing this for over 43 years! We are experts in Custom Plastics Extrusion.

Plastic Extrusion is a process in which very small pellets are fed into a machine with a rotating screw and a barrel that supplies heat. The small pellets (typically referred to as the “resin”) are slowly heated and melted to form the melt. The melt is then forced or squeezed through a die which forms the shape of the profile. The die may be in the form of a tube, rod, pipe, hose, sheet, coating, film, or as a custom profile.

The heat is then removed and the melt which was created by the melting of the pellets now takes the shape of the die as a permanent profile. The key to this process is that it is “continuous”.

Other Plastic Processes could make a profile but it would be much shorter than the lengths that are created through the creation of Plastic extrusions.

The beauty of plastic extrusions is that the lengths can be extremely short (less than .250”) or they can be extremely long and/or spooled into lengths of 1,000 feet or more. The machine that is used to create Plastic extrusions can also do many different materials and colors.

There are many post extrusion processes that can be applied to plastic extrusions such as cutting to length, laminating, punching holes, embossing, and printing.

Custom Plastic ExtrusionsThe size of extruders are generally based on the size of the screw. A 1-inch machine is relatively small and contains a screw that is 1 inch in diameter. These machines are typically used for medical products, R & D, and/or expensive materials. The output is generally low, around 50lbs/hr. On the other side of the spectrum, a 6-inch extruder has a screw diameter of 6 inches and is capable of putting out over 2,500 lbs/hr. The extruder in essence is generally a simple machine in which a screw turns, heat is applied and pellets are melted.

For over 4 decades, we have manufactured plastic extrusions, plastic extruded products, coextrusions, hollow profiles, recycled profiles, custom profiles, and more. We have the technical expertise on staff (even PhDs) that includes materials, profile design, Senior Processing Engineers, and a Sales Staff that can answer all of your questions immediately. We run every type of material that is commercially available and we can even have custom formulations produced.

We service every industry today and we are very proud of our customer base in providing custom plastic extrusions. Plastics are our business. Therefore, our manufactured plastic profiles in ABS, PVC, nylon, and polycarbonate are created by no less than industry specialists. There is absolutely no design too simple or too complicated for our team of experts to design or manufacture, which is why offer custom materials and designs to meet your needs when it comes to Custom Plastic Extrusions.

We offer many services that also complement our Custom Plastic Profiles.  We can custom color any color that you provide us.  We can apply pressure-sensitive tape on any design and, with many of the newer technology tapes.  Here at Keller Products, you can expect specially designed screws during the manufacturing of plastic extrusions. The reason being for this engineering feat is in order to provide us the best melt with an ultimate degree of mixing for brilliant color dispersion. If you don’t already know, the ratio of the length of the screw to the diameter of the screw is typically conveyed as the L/D ratio. Thus, a low of 20/1 to 24 to 1. L/D’s ratios being a common length to diameter ratio can get as high as 30/1 here at Keller Products in order to get the best dispersion when it comes to color.

We have custom-made drilling stations that can be positioned to provide any type of design scenario for holes.

We can also provide custom laminations and would be happy to send you samples upon request.  We currently have seven lamination stations that can handle many different types of custom plastic extrusions.

We offer custom packaging and are currently packaging an extruded profile product that is sold to a “Big Box” Company.
