Strip (T-Tape) Drip Tape Production Line
A continuous forming line that extrudes the strip flow channel and welds it to the tape wall, removing the separate emitter moulding step entirely.
RAL 5021 · semi-matt finishProduct introduction
How the Strip (T-Tape) Drip Tape Production Line is engineered, and which sub-assemblies protect the performance your customers actually buy.
Instead of feeding discrete drippers, the strip line extrudes a continuous profiled strip and welds it onto the tape wall as the tube is formed. Because there is no separate emitter injection step, material cost and labour are lower and the bond is continuous along the whole tape.
The line is aimed at producers who want a product that differs from the standard flat dripper tape. Strip tape is often specified for premium domestic programmes and for export orders, and it is produced on a single integrated line with online inspection and automatic winding.

Technical advantages
Every sub-assembly below is selected to protect the performance your customers buy.
One-piece forming
Strip and tape are produced in one continuous process, removing the emitter moulding and feeding stages.
Reliable bonding
Hot-melt synchronous welding gives a continuous bond that resists peeling better than discrete welded drippers.
Lower cost per metre
Less material handling and less labour per roll translate into a lower conversion cost.
High speed running
The line is designed for continuous operation and holds its speed across long production runs.
Fast size changeover
Tape size and outlet spacing can be changed quickly to suit different orders.
Differentiated product
Strip tape gives producers a premium product to sell alongside standard flat dripper tape.

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.
