How Does Our Silicone Neon Light Production Line Work?

The silicone extruded LED light strip utilizes a cold extrusion, hot molding process that requires high stability in the extrusion machine, uniform extrusion speed, wear-resistant transmission components and screws, low machine noise, even cooling of the extrusion mechanism, uniform heating of the tunnel furnace, good thermal insulation, and high heating efficiency. These requirements ensure consistent light emission, flatness, and transparency.

1. Staffing Requirements: Efficiently run your production line with just 2-3 personnel for standard product output, streamlining operations and optimizing manpower use.

2. Output Potential: Production capacity is product size-dependent. Larger products mean more extrusion output. For instance, a standard 6*10mm hollow core light strip yields approximately 800 meters per hour (Bi-color production line). Each extrusion machine can deliver around 40KG of silicone hourly. With two machines synchronously at work, this escalates to a maximum output of 80KG per hour.

3. Energy Requirements: The production line operates on an average power consumption of 25KW-30KW per hour, peaking at a rated 75KW. A power distribution capacity of 50KW is essential, requiring an incoming line of 50 square millimeters, three-phase five-wire system (recommended) or a minimum of 35 square millimeters, three-phase five-wire system.

4. Space Allocation: A recommended installation footprint of 35m x 5m (L x W) is advised for optimal performance. However, we offer flexibility in case of space constraints by shortening the baking tunnel, but note that this modification may affect production capacity.

Explore Main Parts of the Production Line

Horizontal Silicone Extruder

The prepared silicone material is fed into the silicone extrusion machine, which consists of a barrel, a screw, and a die. The screw inside the barrel rotates, pushing the silicone material forward and applying heat and pressure, causing the silicone to become soft and pliable.

  • Screw Diameter: 65mm/80mm
  • Screw and Shell Material: 38CrMoAl
  • Gearbox: Special designed gearbox for silicone extruder
  • Maximum Extrusion: 35KG/H(65mm screw)~60KG/H(80mm screw)
  • Rated Power: 15kw
  • Speed: 50rpm Max
  • Dimension: 1600*750*1150mm(L*W*H)
  • Weight: 620KG

Baking(Vulcanizing) Tunnel

The baking tunnel or vulcanizing tunnel is used in the production of silicone flex neon lights to heat-treat the extruded silicone tubing, initiating the vulcanization or curing process. This process transforms the silicone material from a soft, pliable state to a solid, resilient form with improved properties, such as durability, stability, and elasticity. The baking or vulcanizing tunnel ensures that the silicone tubing acquires the desired mechanical, thermal, and chemical properties necessary for various lighting applications.

  • Rated Power: 4.8KW(1.8KW average)
  • Max Temperature: 250℃
  • Heating Speed: (25-200℃)<5MIN
  • Conveyor Belt: Teflon, Stainless steel
  • Speed Mode: Frequency
  • Tunnel Material: Inner layer 304 stainless steel, outer layer high-strength sheet metal for the baking process (can be made of all stainless steel)
  • Insulation Material: Glass fiber
  • Rated Voltage: 380VAC 50HZ
  • Dimension: 2000*460*1250mm(L*W*H)

LED Strip Coating Machine

To make the LED strip’s surface coated with a layer of surface treatment agent, so that silica gel and strip can be solid bond together

  • Pre-coating Amount: 0.3-0.5g/M (depends on the number of lamp beads, plate width, solid core and hollow core products)
  • Coating Method: Atomized coating
  • Dimension: 800*400*1500mm(L*W*H)

Raw Silicone Mixing Mill

It is used to mix raw silicone materials with various additives and pigments, creating a homogenous mixture that is then fed into the extrusion machine to produce the silicone tubing for the neon lights. This machine ensures consistent material properties and color throughout the production process.

  • Roller Diameter: 230mm
  • Rated Power: 11KW
  • Maximum Spacing: 10mm

  • Weight: 1800KG

Water Chiller

In the silicone flex neon light production line, a water chiller serves to cool both the mixing mill and the extruder. It helps maintain the optimal operating temperature of the equipment, ensuring consistent material properties and preventing overheating during the mixing and extrusion processes. By providing precise temperature control, the chiller contributes to the overall efficiency and quality of the production line.

  • Cooling Method: Air-cooling
  • Rated Voltage: AC 380V 50Hz
  • Rated Power: 2600W
  • Working Capacity: 1* Raw Silicone Mixer and 2* Silicone Extruder
  • Dimension: 1200*600*1100mm(L*W*H)

Tension Rack

Positioned before the extruder, the tension rack is used to feed and maintain consistent tension on the neon core light strip (LED strip) as it is being inserted into the extruded silicone tubing.

By applying controlled tension to the neon core light strip, the tension rack ensures that the strip remains taut, properly aligned, and evenly spaced as it enters the silicone tubing during the extrusion process. This helps to maintain the accuracy and consistency of the final product, ensuring a uniform distribution of light throughout the silicone flex neon light.
