Your PET supplier should give you some sound advice after you show them - or explain to them - the size of your extruder, and also explain to you the necessity of pre-drying the PET you'd be pushing through your current die and vacuum sizer.
For ideal assistance, contact EASTMAN CHEMICALS, as they make PET, and offer you the fastest and most accurate assistance.
