Labyrinth Drip Tape Production Line
A compact, economical line that forms the maze flow channel directly on the tape wall, the lowest investment route into drip tape production.
RAL 5021 · semi-matt finishProduct introduction
How the Labyrinth Drip Tape Production Line is engineered, and which sub-assemblies protect the performance your customers actually buy.
Labyrinth or single wing tape is the earliest and still the most economical form of drip tape. A forming wheel presses the maze channel into the wall while the tube is still soft, so the flow path is created without any inserted emitter.
The investment is lower and the line is simpler to operate than an inline dripper line, which makes it a good entry point for producers serving local markets. The forming wheel and the maze insert determine the accuracy of the channel, so BENK MACHINE machines the tooling and grades the surface finish in house.

Technical advantages
Every sub-assembly below is selected to protect the performance your customers buy.
Low investment
Fewer sub assemblies than an inline dripper line, so the entry cost is lower.
Simple operation
The process is easy to run and maintain, which suits producers new to drip tape.
Economical raw material
The specially designed screw processes regrind efficiently, reducing resin cost per metre.
Precision tooling
The forming wheel and maze insert are machined in house to keep the channel accurate.
Uniform water distribution
The maze channel is designed for even distribution and good clogging resistance.
Complete line supply
Feeding, extrusion, forming, haul-off, winding and PLC control are supplied as one package.

Why buy from BENK MACHINE
Extrusion specialists, not traders
BENK MACHINE designs and builds extrusion and drip irrigation equipment in Zhangjiagang with an in-house R and D and process team, so machine selection is matched to your resin and product instead of a catalogue number.
Evidence before shipment
Every machine is assembled and run in our works. You receive trial video, gauge and output records, and are welcome to attend the factory acceptance test.
Total cost, not lowest price
Energy efficient drives, permanent magnet motors and optimised heating reduce kWh per tonne, which usually matters more over five years than the initial purchase price.
Real commissioning support
Our engineers install, commission, train your operators and stay involved until the machine hits the specified output and quality on your material.
Spares and response
Critical spares are stocked for fast dispatch, and the Siemens Ethernet control platform allows remote diagnosis before a service visit is needed.
Upgrades as you grow
Co-extrusion, gauge control, automation and downstream equipment can be added later, protecting your original investment.
