This extrusion company was getting ready to add a second extrusion
line, and had plans for additional lines in the future. The first extrusion
line was cooled with a portable chiller, and adding another portable unit,
with the prospect of adding even more portable units in the future, started
to seem a bit cumbersome.
The large portable units required would take a lot of floor space, they blow
hot air back into the facility, and then there are simply more and more
chillers to maintain as time goes on.
