Calculate demand
Divide monthly volume by genuinely available operating hours, then account separately for downtime, changeovers, scrap and growth.
Nominal vs usable output
Catalog capacity is a reference range. Planning output must match resin, thickness, width and acceptable roll quality.
Check the complete line
Printing, bag making, QC, material handling and labor must absorb the output. Otherwise added extrusion capacity becomes work in process.
Run scenarios
Compare conservative, expected and high-demand cases with cost/kg and payback to expose utilization risk.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does this guide guarantee machine performance?
No. Final performance depends on resin, formulation, film dimensions, operating conditions and the confirmed machine configuration.
What information should a factory prepare?
Prepare the product sample, material and formulation, width, gauge, target output, downstream process, current constraint and project timeline.
