ABSTRACT:
A process and an installation for producing a drip irrigation conduit having discrete internally located emitter units bonded at axially spaced apart locations of an internal surface thereof, wherein the irrigation conduit is continuously extruded from an extrusion cross head at a first outer diameter and a first linear velocity and is drawn off through a calibrator unit to a second and lesser outer diameter at a second and greater linear velocity greater than the first linear velocity, the emitter units being continuously supplied on a carrier member which extends from within the extruder cross-head to the region of an inlet of the calibrator unit. While so supported the emitter units are accelerated so as to attain an emitter unit linear velocity substantially equal to said second linear velocity and are displaced at this velocity into contact with the extruded conduit where the latter has substantially attained its second linear velocity and therefore continue to be displaced while still supported in contact with the extruded conduit until the emitter unit is head welded.
