Explore the process of vinyl flooring - China vinyl flooring factory secrets

Vinyl SPC flooring has been very popular in the market in the past two years! Why? It is because of its durability, easy installation, diverse designs and economical characteristics that make people love it. Speaking of which, the calcium powder base layer of this SPC floor is as strong as stone, thermally conductive and stable. When using it in a geothermal environment, there is no need to worry about deformation or harmful gases. In addition, its structure of rebound layer and wear-resistant layer has a great insulation effect, energy saving and environmental protection, which is really hard to find fault with! Moreover, the cleaning and maintenance of vinyl SPC flooring is also super simple, which is simply a blessing for lazy people! Usually, you only need to wipe it lightly with a wet mop to restore it to its original state, and you don’t even need to wax it. For families with children or pets at home, there is no need to worry about the floor being scratched or worn, because the wear-resistant layer of the SPC floor has been specially treated and has super wear resistance.

Today, JadeLight will reveal the production process of vinyl SPC (Stone Plastic Composite) flooring in detail. Let us take a deeper look at this process.

What is the process of JadeLight producing click-type vinyl SPC flooring?

Vinyl floor production process 1: Mixing

According to the pre-set raw material ratio, the system will automatically perform precise metering to ensure that the proportion of each material is accurate. Subsequently, these measured raw materials will be sent to the high-speed mixer for hot mixing. During the hot mixing process, the temperature is strictly controlled at 125℃, which helps the various materials to be fully mixed and reach a uniform state. At the same time, the high temperature can effectively remove the moisture in the material to ensure the quality of the final product. After the hot mixing is completed, the material will enter the cold mixing stage. In this stage, the temperature is set to 55℃ in order to cool the material and prevent it from agglomerating or discoloring at high temperatures, thereby maintaining the stability and color of the material. After the cold mixing process, the temperature of the material is appropriately reduced. At this time, the cooling system is used to further cool the mixed material to ensure that it reaches the ideal temperature state and is ready for the subsequent production process.

Vinyl flooring production process 2: Extrusion

During the production process, the raw materials are first added to the twin-screw extruder and initially formed by heating and extrusion. Subsequently, these pre-processed materials enter the sheet die for extrusion molding to obtain the desired sheet shape. The formed sheet is then processed by a four-roll calender to ensure that the thickness of the substrate is uniform. Next, the color film is attached to the surface of the substrate to give the product the desired aesthetic effect. Next, in order to improve the wear resistance of the product, a wear-resistant layer is attached to the surface of the color film. After these steps, the material will enter the cooling stage to stabilize its structure and performance. Finally, the cooled material is cut to obtain the final product size.

Vinyl floor production process 3: UV tempering

During the surface UV treatment process, after ultraviolet irradiation, the workpiece needs to be tempered. The purpose of tempering is to eliminate the stress inside the workpiece and improve its mechanical properties and stability. During the tempering process, the workpiece will be placed in hot water for heating, and the temperature range of the hot water is controlled between 80 and 120 degrees Celsius. This temperature range can effectively relax the stress inside the workpiece while avoiding excessive degradation of material properties. After heating, the workpiece will be quickly transferred to cold water for cooling, and the temperature of the cold water is generally maintained at around 10 degrees Celsius. The quenching effect of cold water helps to further stabilize the microstructure of the workpiece and ensure that it has good dimensional stability and deformation resistance. Through this series of tempering treatments, the surface UV treatment effect of the workpiece will be further consolidated and improved.

Vinyl floor production process 4: Slitting and slotting

First, the slitting process is carried out to cut the raw materials into the predetermined size and shape. Next, the slotting operation is carried out to form the required channels on the material through precise mechanical processing. Then the trimming process is carried out to remove burrs and uneven parts on the edges of the material to ensure the appearance of the product is neat and beautiful. Then the chamfering process is carried out to make the edges of the material smooth to avoid scratches or accidental injuries during use. After completing the above processing steps, it enters the inspection stage, and strict quality inspection is carried out to ensure that each product meets the standard requirements. Finally, the qualified products are carefully packaged to ensure that the products remain intact during transportation and storage.
