01

Project Overview

QTech-Machinery supplied a customized tumbler straw extrusion line for THERMOS, a well-known drinkware brand.

The line was designed to produce reusable plastic straws for insulated tumblers and drinking cups, with a focus on stable extrusion, accurate sizing, clean cutting, and straw-end finishing.

02

What The Customer Needed

THERMOS needed a production line for LLDPE and PCT reusable tumbler straws in different sizes.

Main requirements included stable small-diameter tube extrusion, consistent cutting length, chamfered straw ends, V-shape opening processing, and a reliable layout for daily production.

03

What We Supplied

QTech-Machinery provided a complete extrusion and finishing line covering material feeding, precision extrusion, vacuum calibration, cooling, servo haul-off cutting, chamfering, opening, and industrial water cooling.

This solution helped THERMOS build a practical production process from raw material to finished reusable tumbler straws.
