The electronic controller further commands the extruding device to form an opening defined in the substrate in which plurality of electrically conductive wires is exposed and a location feature on the substrate located with a positional tolerance less than or equal to 1 mm relative to the opening.

A blown-film extrusion apparatus for manufacturing a tubular polymer film comprises an extruder; a solidification ring for solidifying a tubular element produced by the extruder and for forming the film by delivering cooling air on the tubular element at a given cooling height, and a film conveyor for conveying the film upwards. The apparatus also comprises a delivery device for projecting correction air on the tubular element, in order to locally correct the thickness of the film, comprising a distribution chamber; a plurality of air delivery members with delivery channels whose delivery mouths are arranged about said axis of the apparatus for projecting correction air partial streams on respective angular correction positions, between the die and the cooling height; flow control elements between the distribution chamber, and the inlet of respective air delivery members, configured for adjusting the flowrate of the respective correction air stream according to an adjustment signal. According to an aspect of the invention, a plurality of separate radial ducts is provided defining respective delivery channels and spaced apart, at an own end portion, by separation spaces, so that the correction air partial streams, after hitting the tubular element in the respective angular correction positions, can flow away from the tubular element through said separation spaces. According to another aspect of the invention, the distribution chamber is defined by an upper ring and by a lower ring connected to each other by means of tight fixed joints with a first substantially cylindrical wall and with a second substantially cylindrical wall arranged around the first cylindrical wall, wherein possible separate radial ducts of the air delivery members protrude from the first cylindrical wall.

The extruding device has a dispensing head configured to dispense a dielectric material though an orifice in the dispensing head as commanded by the electronic controller. A wire feed device is connected to the electronic controller and the extruding device and is configured to feed a conductive wire through the orifice as commanded by the electronic controller. A cutting device is connected to the electronic controller and the extruding device. The cutting device severs the wire after it is fed through the orifice as commanded by the electronic controller. An electromechanical device is connected to the electronic controller and to the extruding device. The electromechanical device is configured to move the extruding device, the wire feed device, and the cutting device within a 3D space as commanded by the electronic controller.

A tube material is formed by continuously extruding a thermoplastic resin material in the shape of a cylinder that has a thickness of 100 μm and a circumferential length of 800 mm. After that, in a polishing process, the tube material is rubbed with a lapping tape of #2000 while being rotated in one direction at a fixed speed, so that circumferential stripes are formed on the outer circumferential surface of the tube material. Then, the circumferential stripes are thermally transferred by pressing the outer circumferential surface of the heated tube material against a mold surface that is finished in the shape of circumferential stripes by a thermal transfer process.

Described is a process and system for direct printing of a decorative pattern onto an extruded PVC slat. The process includes providing a hot extruded PVC slat; directly contacting a surface of the hot extruded PVC slat with a direct printing cylinder as the slat is moved in a downstream direction, where the cylinder has a pattern with a cell structure that receives ink and rotates to directly apply the ink in the form of the pattern onto the surface of the hot extruded PVC slat. The process also includes controlling a temperature of the direct printing cylinder to inhibit drying of the ink while present on the direct printing cylinder.
