Collapsing Frame

Optimum output and film quality require the lowest friction and proper film transition.

Achieve superior film quality, increased output, and seamless efficiency with Pearl’s industry-leading collapsing frames. Engineered with precision and innovation, our collapsing frames deliver the lowest coefficient of friction (COF) on the market, ensuring smooth film transitions while maintaining the perfect balance of friction for bubble stability.

Say goodbye to wrinkles, inefficiencies, and outdated systems—Pearl’s collapsing frames are designed to elevate your blown film extrusion production process and keep you ahead of the competition.

Virtually Maintenance-Free

Traditional rollers require constant cleaning to remove sticky residue, which can lead to:

  • Scratched film
  • Bubble sag
  • Flat spotting
  • Inconsistent drag/resistance
  • Residue transfer to the bubble

Pearl’s collapsing frames eliminate these issues, reducing downtime and costly customer complaints.
