An installation for producing a polymer melt for a porous film, in particular for a membrane film, comprises a planetary roller extruder. Said extruder is used to produce a flowable polymer melt from thermoplastics. The planetary roller extruder has a filling opening and a discharge side for delivering the polymer melt. A melt pump is further provided. The discharge side of the planetary roller extruder is connected to a downstream inlet side of the melt pump for further conveying the polymer melt. The connection is in the form of a pressure channel shielded from the ambient atmosphere or a pressure line shielded from the ambient atmosphere. The planetary roller extruder and the melt pump are designed and/or can be driven in such a manner that the polymer melt is applied or can be transferred under pressure at the melt pump on the inlet side.

A method of operating an additive manufacturing system feeds solid extrusion material into a heater using a slip clutch coupled to an actuator of a mechanical driver to supply thermoplastic material into a manifold in an extruder head. The method sets a speed of the actuator so the actuator operates at a rotational speed that is slightly greater than the rotational speed of the mechanical mover. This method helps maintain the pressure of the thermoplastic material in the manifold of the extruder head in a predetermined range no matter how many nozzles are opened in the extruder head.

Provided is a rubber-coated cord manufacturing technique with which the occurring of rubber spew can be prevented and waste in the form of scrap can be reduced during a rubber-coated cord manufacturing step, and with which the burden on an operator can be reduced and a high-quality rubber-coated cord can be stably produced. This rubber-coated cord manufacturing device comprises: an extrusion head that coats rubber on the surface of a cord, the extrusion head including a screw rotation type extruder which extrudes rubber, an insertion port into which the cord is inserted, and a flow path of rubber which has been extruded from the extruder; a cord supply device that supplies the cord to the extrusion head; a rubber-coated cord winding device that winds a rubber-coated cord which has been coated with rubber by the extrusion head; and a head pressure controller that controls the head pressure of the extrusion head. The head pressure controller performs control to maintain the head pressure at a prescribed level by feeding back to the extruder the monitoring results of the head pressure while the cord is coated with the rubber, and adjusting the rotation speed of the screw.

An ultrasonic transducer fixture has an entrance and an exit for tubular extrudate passing therethrough; ultrasonic transducers within a closed chamber in position for passage of the tubular extrudate therebetween; and a vacuum source communicating with the chamber interior for maintaining sub-atmospheric pressure within the chamber. The water level in the chamber is controlled so that the ultrasonic transducers remain immersed in the water.

A system according to various embodiments can include a source for supplying a material to be treated, an extruder, at least two screws, and a drive coupled to the screws for axially rotating the screws. The extruder includes an inlet for receiving the material, which is fed therein in a controlled manner. The screws are provided within the housing of the extruder. The screws have a plurality of compression and release stages that create mechanical heat which is directly applied to the material to change the mechanical properties of the material thereby facilitating a conversion of a physical state of the material from a non-compactable state to a compactable state as the screws rotate and move the material longitudinally along the screws to produce a final product, for example, a feed tub for use as an animal feed.
