The present invention relates to a screw for an extrusion molding machine and an injection molding machine that is adapted to be inserted into a cylinder to convey a molding material injected from a hopper and heated to a molten state by means of a heater, and more particularly, to a screw that includes a wide width spiral portion (15) formed on the frontmost end periphery of a spiral portion (12) of a screw shaft in such a manner as to have a spiral blade having a wide width to prevent shaking and to reduce friction and abrasion against the inner peripheral wall of the cylinder to ensure a longer term operation than the conventional screw.

A device manufactures an electrode strip for a battery including a current collector strip and at least one layer of electrochemically active composite material on either side of the current collector strip. The device includes an extruder including a sheath, an extrusion head, and an extrusion screw. The extrusion screw includes an outer tube and an inner tube that are coaxial and fitted into one another. The outer tube is mounted so as to be rotatably movable relative to the sheath. The inner tube is stationary relative to the sheath and includes an outlet located upstream of the extrusion head. Moreover, the manufacturing device includes advancing and unwinding structure to convey the current collector strip through the inner tube and up to the extrusion head.

Provided are methods and systems for dispensing filament adhesive onto a target substrate. A filament adhesive is applied on a target substrate according to a bead application plan, then the applied bead is checked against performance criteria. A second bead application plan is generated, and subsequent filament bead applied according to the second bead application plan.

The polyamide pellet of the present invention includes a polyamide including diamine units and dicarboxylic acid units, 50% by mole or more of the diamine units being derived from m-xylylenediamine, wherein a spherulite density of a skin portion of the pellet is 40,000 to 250,000/mm.sup.2.

The invention relates to an apparatus and a process for producing pigment-containing, in particular carbon-black-containing, polymer mixtures comprising polycarbonates and optionally elastomers, and/or other components, where the mouldings produced therefrom have, after the shaping process via injection moulding or via extrusion, improved surface properties and improved mechanical properties.

The invention concerns a method for preparing an adhesive composition using an extruder having at least two rotating screws, successively comprising: feeding a plasticizer into the extruder; degassing the plasticizer in the extruder; feeding a silylated prepolymer and mixing the latter with the plasticizer in the extruder; and discharging the mixture from the extruder.
