System for adjusting the land channel length on an extrusion die
An extrusion die with adjustable land channel can be formed of a die body that includes a first die body portion and a second die body portion, a first lip body, a second lip body, and a land channel body. The extrusion die can have a flow channel that includes a land channel terminating in an outlet orifice. The flow channel may be bound on one side by the first die body portion, the land channel body, and the first lip body. The flow channel may be bound on an opposite side by the second die body portion and the second lip body. In some examples, the length of the land channel is adjustable by configuring the land channel body and/or first lip body to move across the width of the flow channel.
Coextrusion feedblock, coextrusion profiling insert assembly, and methods of operation
The invention provides a coextrusion feedblock having a flow adjuster, a viscosity compensation device, an actuator, a central extrusion conduit, and a coextrusion conduit. The invention also provides a coextrusion profiling insert assembly constructed to be mounted in a coextrusion feedblock. The insert assembly has a flow adjuster, a viscosity compensation device, and an actuator. The insert assembly when mounted in the feedblock has a coextrusion conduit extending between the flow adjuster and the viscosity compensation device. The actuator is adjustable to apply force to bend the viscosity compensation device and thereby adjust a gap height of the coextrusion conduit. Also provided is a method of operating a feedblock having a viscosity compensation device comprising a flex region, a central extrusion conduit, and a coextrusion conduit. Force is applied to bend the flex region of the viscosity compensation device and thereby adjust a gap height of the coextrusion conduit.
COEXTRUSION ADAPTER
A coextrusion adapter, including a central conduit having an inlet end and an outlet end and having bottom and top walls that define the height of the central conduit and side walls that define the width of the central conduit, as well as at least one coextrusion conduit having an inlet end and an outlet end. The outlet end feeds into the central conduit near or in the vicinity of the bottom and/or top wall thereof, downstream of the inlet end of the central conduit, and adjusting devices are provided, which are allocated to each outlet end of the at least one coextrusion conduit and are composed of a plurality of adjusting elements, which collectively extend across the width of the outlet end and by actuating drives, are adjustable independently of one another so that it is possible to change the inner width of the respective width section of the outlet end. Adjacent to the outlet end at least one of the side walls has a receiving bore into which it is possible to insert a displacing element that protrudes beyond the side wall into the central conduit.
Extruded variegated plastic profile and method
An apparatus and method for forming as extruded variegated plastic profile, including a multi-manifold slotted feed block assembly having a primary input manifold assembly, a secondary input manifold assembly, a flow distribution assembly in fluid communication with the primary input manifold assembly and the secondary input manifold assembly, a zone assembly having at least one restrictor and at least one mixer, and optionally, an extra line manifold assembly in communication with the flow distribution assembly.
Choke Bar Slot Die and Slurry Coating Apparatus Including the Same
The present invention relates to a slot die with a structure in which a stripe shim and a cover shim are mounted between an upper body and a lower body, and a choke bar is inserted into a through path formed in the upper body, and an apparatus for coating an electrode slurry including the slot die. According to the present invention, by forming a space in which the choke bar can move by the cover shim, it is possible to adjust the flow rate of the slurry through the choke bar regardless of the shape of the stripe shim.
Filament production device
A filament production device, in particular a filament reaction-spinning production device, comprising at least one spinning nozzle unit, which is provided for producing at least one filament formed as a hollow fibre membrane from at least one polymer solution, and comprising a polymerisation unit, which is provided for initiating a polymerisation of the polymer solution, wherein the polymerisation unit is provided for initiating the polymerisation at least partially within the spinning nozzle unit.
CO-EXTRUDED MULTILAYER ARTICLES INCLUDING CONTINUOUS LAYER AND DISCONTINUOUS LAYER
This disclosure describes co-extruded multilayer articles including at least one continuous layer and one discontinuous layer, as well as systems and techniques for the manufacture of co-extruded multilayer articles. For example, a co-extruded multilayer article is described that includes a body having a plurality of layers, where a first layer of the plurality of layers is formed from a first material and is continuous along a longitudinal axis of the body, and a second layer of the plurality of layers is formed from a second material and is discontinuously co-extruded along the longitudinal axis.
DISTRIBUTION BLOCK
The invention relates to a distribution block for extrusion melt and a method for coextruding films with the aid of a distribution block for extrusion melt, wherein the distribution block comprises a movable sleeve.
Method and device for manufacturing rubber coated cord
A method and a device for manufacturing a rubber coated cord, comprising: a rubber coated cord including a preceding cord is manufactured by causing the preceding cord to pass through a preceding head while filling the preceding head with unvulcanized rubber extruded from a rubber extruder, and a rubber coated cord including a next cord is manufactured by setting a leading edge portion of the next cord in a state where the leading edge portion of the next cord has passed through the next head in advance, manufacturing a predetermined length of the rubber coated cord including the preceding cord, and subsequently causing the next cord including a leading edge portion side range bonded to a trailing edge portion of the rubber coated cord including the preceding cord to pass through the next head while switching from the preceding head to the next head.
FLEXIBLE TUBE PRODUCTION APPARATUS
A die has an inner die that has a straight portion of circular columnar outer shape and a convergent tapered portion provided closer to an extrusion port side than the straight portion and an outer die that houses the inner die. A first supply passage connecting a first valve and a flow passage, a second supply passage connecting a second valve and the flow passage, and a third supply passage connecting a third valve and the flow passage are provided inside the die. Downstream side end portions of the first supply passage and the second supply passage are connected to a portion of the flow passage formed between the straight portion and the outer die and a downstream side end portion of the third supply passage is connected to a portion of the flow passage formed between the tapered portion and the outer die.
