Production process of artificial grass
The artificial turf production process mainly includes the following steps:
1.Select materials:
The main raw materials for artificial turf include synthetic fibers (such as polyethylene, polypropylene, polyester, and nylon), synthetic resins, anti-ultraviolet agents, and filling particles. High-quality materials are selected according to the required performance and quality of the turf.
Proportion and mixing: These raw materials need to be proportioned and mixed in accordance with the planned production quantity and type of turf to ensure the uniformity and stability of the material composition.
2.Yarn production:
Polymerization and extrusion: Raw materials are polymerized first, and then extruded through a special extrusion process to form long filaments. During extrusion, color and UV additives may also be added to achieve the desired color and UV resistance.
Spinning and twisting: The extruded filaments are spun into yarn through a spinning process, and then twisted together to form strands. This process can enhance the strength and durability of the yarn.Finish treatment: The yarn is subjected to various finish treatments to further improve its performance, such as increasing softness, UV resistance, and wear resistance.
3.Turf tufting:
Tufting machine operation: The prepared yarn is tufted into a base material using a tufting machine. The tufting machine inserts the yarn into the base material in a certain pattern and density to form the grass-like structure of the turf.
Blade shape and height control: Different blade shapes and heights can be designed according to the needs of different applications to simulate the appearance and feel of natural grass as much as possible.
4.Backing treatment: Backing coating: A layer of adhesive (back glue) is coated on the back of the tufted turf to fix the grass fibers and enhance the stability of the turf. Backing can be single-layer or double-layer structure.Drainage layer construction (if necessary): For some turfs that require better drainage performance, a drainage layer may be added to ensure rapid drainage of water.
5.Cutting and shaping: Cutting by machine: The turf after backing treatment is cut into different sizes and shapes by a cutting machine to meet the needs of different venues and applications.
Edge trimming: The edges of the cut turf are trimmed to make the edges neat and smooth.
6.Heat pressing and curing: Heat and pressure treatment: The artificial turf is subjected to heat pressing and curing through high temperature and high pressure to make the turf and filling particles (if used) firmly fixed together, avoiding loosening or displacement of the turf.
7.Quality inspection: Visual inspection: Check the appearance of the turf, including color uniformity, grass fiber density, and whether there are defects such as broken wires and burrs.
Performance testing: Conduct performance tests such as wear resistance, UV resistance, and tensile strength to ensure that the turf meets the relevant quality standards.
Filling particles (if applicable):
Particle selection: Select appropriate filling particles, such as rubber particles or silica sand, according to the application requirements of the turf.
Filling process: After the artificial turf is laid on the venue, the filling particles are evenly spread on the turf through a machine to increase the stability and durability of the turf.
8.Packaging and storage: Packaging: The processed artificial turf is packaged in the form of rolls or strips for convenient storage and transportation.
Storage: Store the packaged turf in a dry, ventilated, and shaded place to avoid damage caused by moisture, sunlight, and high temperature.
