I liked very much Diamond Plastics PVC pipes manufacturing video. I am working as a Sales Manager in a local PVC pipes manufacturing Factory for the past 30 years. Located at Salem City India. (Kaleem Khan)
This was an interesting, informative and entertaining video with excellent videography and narration. Simply put, civilised countries rely on these very highly engineered pipes for potable water and sewage removal and processing along with countless industrial, manufacturing and agricultural usage. Life as we know it simply couldn't function without such underground networks. The test pressures were quite remarkable, I would never have imagined that the pipes would be subjected to such high proof pressures. It certainly instills confidence that these pipes will continue to give decades of trouble free service.
I have hauled a lot of these, actual for this outfit, they are a pain because the pipe is slick, so you have to make sure it is well strapped or the load will shift.
8:04: I have always loved the color blue, and I have always loved the specific blue color of these pipes. In fact, I just took this very scene and made a picture for my computer desktop out of it.
I’ve worked on a production floor for 41 years now producing pvc pipe. This company looks to me to understand the importance of quality equipment in order to produce a quality product..this pipe has always been referred to as zedbell pipe .
Had 7 years in already. Never seen a 60" water pipe. Did come across a 48" cast iron downtown Milwaukee WI. Interestingly, they didn't know they had it.
It is knowledgeable video for manufacturing & quality control measures taken. DPC is providing a good quality infrastructure product. All the best to DPC & U Tube.
It's just idiot trolls. Have you noticed how the number of down votes has increased since this virus stay at home started? Haters will always hate rather than just change channels. Sad :-(
There are some people that dislike PVC. They don’t want it used on drinking water or waist water. Every pipe made leaves it’s mark on any water that flows through it. Nothing you can do about that but for longevity and ease of repair PVC has its place.
Very nice plant tour and process discussion. Nice description of the QA tests as well (from a nerdy old electronics manufacturing , R&D, and Quality Engineer).
I know my GF likes it when I "lay some pipe" too. Very COoL. Thanks for the video. p.s. It was nice you passed out those new blue company shirts for the shoot. Hope they got to keep them :O) Cheers!
I've always wondered how the die is held in place inside the extrusion tube. How to hold it in place while there's continuous flow around it, without causing a break in the circumference of the tube during extrusion. I'm guessing its held early in the molten flow stage, a blade bracket of sorts, thin enough to allow 'healing' to occur beyond die location?
a section in the die assembly is known as a spider and that keeps the inner parts rigid you are right it separates and then heals back together, all the dies and puller and saw on this line was made by a Company in Mcpherson Kansas called Midwest Industries
This is true, that was the first thing I noticed when I started working there. Ironically McPherson ks is where I was born and grew up. 60s and 70s graduated 81.
Thanks for this beautiful video .We have PVC Extrusion plant in the southern part in Nigeria making home PVC water pipe .We are interested in going industrial we will be glad to have more conversation with you in this regard.
Weber, Cincinnati Milacron, Krauss Maffei, Sica, IPM and some others are the biggest producers of such machines. For people who don't work in such factory it's very impressive. :)
the die, the puller and saw you seen in this video where made by a company in Mcpherson Kansas by the name of Midwest Industries. I can tell you allot about them because i was part of the team that built the puller and saw and helped install them there.
hello thomas I am a Chinese manufacturer,we mainly produce pvc/hdpe pipes and fittings,I think we can provide best price and good quality for you,may I know your WhatsApp?my WhatsApp:+8618374722489,thanks.
Putting color in the PVC is an amazing idea, as long as i know, un México we just have pues in white color, the original color of PVC for residencial use.
I retired after 35 yrs of molding plastic - mostly injection, but some extrusion also. And mostly ho-hum products, tho sometimes interesting or fun products. I would have liked working for a company like Diamond - especially their plant in NV, near Winnemucca. My screen name - Jungojerry, comes from Jungo road in Winny where I had 40 acres off grid along Jungo road..
Saying that they are making the largest PVC pipe in the world , I laughed . I still remember hauling a 60 inch extrusion die from Blue Mountain Pipe in BC to Toronto , Ont. because they wanted to move their large pipe line to Toronto . That was 98 .
I wonder how they profitably transport 60-inch pipe. A flatbed trailer is 102 inches wide, so only 50 feet of that big pipe will fit on one truck. Do they insert smaller pipes into the bore of the big one?
Wish they showed when things don't go right..saws not cutting,hang ups,power failures...I've seen 4" pipe snap across the plant..extruder screws snap and the release of chlorine gas from burnt polyvinyl chloride
Great information ,,,BUT the music is distracting and unnecessary.. ... I know this is standard procedure... Does everyone need entertainment ALL the time?
Im a extruder machine operator .i have 15years experience .i can die design ,fomulation ,operation and machine maintenance .i like to join new pvc factory .now working at sulthanate of oman.im sri lankan .
Is pvc pipe easily recyclable? If developments plans change, can it be easily pulled up and reused elsewhere? Can it withstand desert dry and heat (+60 deg C) conditions to be used in irrigation projects? How much better would ceramic or concrete be?
Hey guys!!!!! i have a fact for you!!!!!!! did you know that p.v.c. pipes are not only used for water sewer and irrigation? they are also used for making beautiful wonderful music!?!?!??!?!!?!?!??! the blue man group use plumbing pipes to make beautiful music!!!!!!!!! look them up!!!!!
One thing I've always wondered is they make all these pipes then stack them outside for who knows how long. We all know uv light isn't good for things, especially plastic. Wouldn't it be better to have them in a warehouse or something? How can the company guarantee the sun hasn't already damaged the pipe? Just curious, not hating or complaining.

I picked up on that too. Either it was a typo on the script or possibly it is because those pipes conform to the same diameter specs as cast iron ones do. I know sometimes they have to make transitions from cast to pvc in the field.
3DPeter because the customer would have to get them out you would double the load to the banding and scratch or ruin your perfectly in spec pipe . Not to mention the inner pipe would be loose if not banded length wise
they could tape the end to prevent scratching, and then tie it up with a rachet that goes throuh the pipe, so that it can't fall out during transport, and weight can't be an issue, because a truck can haul far more heavier loads that that.
3DPeter that would cause a hassle to the customer on their site . And cost at least 5x in banding lengthwise in every pipe rather than just wrapping them . just standards of how things are done we never did it where I had made PVC pipe

Awesome! Be fun to get a tour. Now I know where all the big blue and green pipes come from for the construction in Las Vegas and Henderson Nevada.

Also it’s really funny that they say corrosion free when they install the plastic into iron fittings and use iron restraints to hold it together
