About AR Engineering
AR Engineering (A.R. Eng Machine Inc.) is a Canadian builder of blown film extrusion equipment based in Mississauga, Ontario. For more than twenty years the company has manufactured new lines and rebuilt existing ones for polyethylene film producers, serving customers throughout Canada, the United States and Latin America.
The product range covers the whole blown film line: air-cooled single-screw extruders, manual and hydraulic screen changers, monolayer and co-extrusion dies on stationary, rotating or oscillating carts, single- and dual-lip air rings, bubble cages, top nip assemblies, and single or dual surface winders from manual through fully automatic. AR Engineering also builds blow moulding heads and takes on custom-designed equipment.
On the used market an AR Engineering extruder is typically found as the front end of a Canadian blown film line paired with Techflow dies, Macro Engineering winders and Decatex haul-offs — rugged, air-cooled machines in the 3.5" to 4.5" range that are straightforward to service and rebuild. Meadoworks lists used AR Engineering extruders and complete lines from plant closings and facility consolidations, with photos, specifications and inspection visits arranged.

Frequently Asked Questions
Who is AR Engineering?
AR Engineering is A.R. Eng Machine Inc., a Mississauga, Ontario manufacturer that builds and rebuilds blown film extrusion lines — extruders, dies, air rings, bubble cages, nips and winders — and blow moulding heads. It has served film producers in North and Latin America for over twenty years.
What is a used AR Engineering extruder typically paired with?
Canadian blown film lines built around an AR Engineering extruder commonly run Techflow IBC dies, Decatex oscillating haul-offs, Macro Engineering winders and slitters, and Doteco or Plast Control gravimetric blenders. Meadoworks lists these as complete lines so the components stay together.
What should I check on a used blown film extruder?
Confirm screw diameter and L/D against your output needs, inspect the screw and barrel for wear (a bimetallic barrel and a recently measured screw are worth a premium), check the drive motor and controls power up and hold set temperatures, and look at the gearbox for leaks and noise. Ask for the film width and gauge the line was last running. Meadoworks provides photos, video and inspection visits on the lines we list.
