Extrusion head ECFTLRC25: Eurotek’s new frontier in HFFR cable extrusion

Eurotek, an Italy-based company specializing in the design and manufacture of high-performance extrusion heads and accessories for the cable industry, is celebrating a major milestone: in the third quarter of 2025, extrusion head production increased by 15% compared to the previous year.

This result is largely driven by the new ECFTLRC25 extrusion head, which marks a decisive advancement in technology for flame-retardant cable (HFFR) extrusion.

This success confirms Eurotek’s industrial strength and the company’s ongoing commitment to developing increasingly efficient, reliable solutions that are closely aligned with the needs of the cable market.

ECFTLRC25: power and precision serving productivity

Further strengthening Eurotek’s success is the presentation of the new ECFTLRC25 extrusion head, a unit designed for the production of flame-retardant cables (HFFR) with efficiency levels never achieved before.

The ECFTLRC25 represents the most advanced evolution of the Eurotek range: for the same cable cross-section, it guarantees the highest production capacity ever developed by the company.

The material distribution system has been completely redesigned to:

• ensure higher throughput rates and increased extrusion speeds,

• maintain excellent dimensional concentricity of the finished product,

• reliably handle even high-viscosity HFFR compounds.

In addition, optimization of the flow channels and internal geometry helps prevent material overheating, keep operating pressures within nominal values, and ensure consistent mechanical and dimensional characteristics of the extruded cable.

Expanding markets and high-value applications

The increase in Eurotek extrusion head production is supported by growing demand in the segments of halogen-free power cables, low-, medium-, and high-voltage cables, and submarine cables.

These are sectors that require increasingly high-performance technical solutions, capable of combining production efficiency, safety, and sustainability.

This new production milestone, together with the launch of the ECFTLRC25, further strengthens Eurotek’s leadership in the extrusion head sector.
