Technical Information

Manufacturing Technique

Our plastic sheaths are produced by plastic extrusion, the most common manufacturing process for this type of product. The material is first melted, then homogenized using a screw, and finally pressed through an extruder. The plastic material used is determined by your specifications. We are moving towards a 4.0 factory with cutting-edge technology, equipped with 15 single and twin-screw extrusion lines, allowing versatility and a tailored response to all your requirements. Our plastic sheaths are therefore of superior quality and have a long lifespan.

Buying Plastic Sheaths from ABI Profils

With over 40 years of experience in manufacturing plastic sheaths, ABI Profils produces technical sheaths from different plastic materials according to your needs. Our plastic sheaths are mainly made from flexible PVC, LDPE, SEBS, and, in general, any other flexible material. Our clients benefit from economical and technical solutions that fully satisfy their requirements. We develop an individual solution in collaboration with your teams, precisely tailored to the respective requirements.

Production is exclusively carried out using modern technologies, adapted to plastics and their processing, while conserving resources and protecting the environment.

We offer a wide range of plastics, from the most standard to the most technical, including recycled materials. Tool design is done using a CAD/DAO 3D and 2D system. To follow the different stages of your development, we operate under a Product Development Sheet (PDS). A functional and aesthetic analysis will focus on the feasibility of manufacturing and the cost of industrialization.

Taking into account your specifications, technical, functional, aesthetic, and environmental constraints, a project manager will support you throughout all phases of your development.

The Different Phases of Developing Your Plastic Sheaths :

 

  • Creation of the Product Development Sheet
  • Design and modeling (3D/2D) / Drafting
  • Creation and anticipation of the project timeline
  • Assembly of the Product Quality Analysis File: PQAF
  • Access to our materials analysis and product prototyping service
  • Technical study and production of dies & tooling process

ABI Profils services are present throughout this process: from specifications to industrialization.
