Extrusion 2026 Conference

Join PTi at the Extrusion Conference 2026

August 18–19, 2026 | Marriott Austin Downtown | Austin, Texas

PTi is proud to participate in the Extrusion Conference 2026, a premier industry event presented by Plastics Technology that brings together extrusion professionals, industry experts, and technology leaders to share best practices, troubleshooting strategies, and the latest innovations in film and sheet extrusion. The conference focuses on practical solutions that help manufacturers improve efficiency, productivity, and overall process performance.

Throughout the event, PTi's team will be available to discuss extrusion technologies, system optimization, automation solutions, and the challenges facing today's manufacturers. Be sure to connect with Jeff, who will be on-site to answer questions and discuss how PTi can help improve your extrusion operations through innovative engineering and proven process solutions.

A key highlight of this year's conference will be a presentation by Tom Limbrunner, who will share insights on maximizing extrusion system performance through optimized drive system design.

Featured Presentation

Driving Extrusion System Innovation: Powertrain Optimization for High-Performance Sheet Systems

In this technical session, Tom will explore the critical relationships between motor base speed, gearbox ratios, and production requirements that directly impact extrusion line performance. Attendees will gain valuable insights into optimizing powertrain configurations, maximizing screw RPM flexibility, balancing torque and speed requirements, and selecting drive components that support higher productivity across a wide range of polymer applications.

Whether you're looking to improve throughput, enhance operational flexibility, or better understand the latest advancements in extrusion system design, this presentation offers practical knowledge that can be applied directly to your operation.

We look forward to connecting with extrusion professionals from across the industry and discussing the technologies and innovations shaping the future of extrusion.
