Austrian developer of extrusion systems SML (Lenzing) reports that it has installed its first stretch film line in the United States. The cast stretch film line went into production at Sigma Plastics’ plant in Riverside, CA, in September 2016. The 180-inch-wide, nine-up line was built to UL specifications and modified to meet California’s code requirements.
Adjusting the line design to meet state guidelines was a straightforward process, according to SML, which supplies machinery worldwide. The company uses many standard components that are already UL-approved. Key to being awarded the order, however, was gaining Sigma’s confidence that SML, a new supplier to the group, could complete the project on schedule and provide seamless training and support.
