A process for forming a film for dynamically vulcanized alloy comprising at least one elastomer dispersed within a thermoplastic resin domain wherein the film is characterized by low shrinkage rates after completion of the formation of the extruded film. The film has a shrinkage rate, measured at not earlier than 96 hours after formation of the film, of less than 1.5% relative to the film width as measured just after film formation. During formation of the film, the extruded film is subjected to a cooling rate of less than 97 C. per second and the frost line of the extruded film is greater than 135 mm.

An extrusion film-forming apparatus includes: a die that extrudes a molding material from a slit-shaped extrusion outlet; a die lip drive mechanism that changes a slit width of the extrusion outlet; and a control device that controls the die lip drive mechanism, in which during the extrusion of the molding material, the control device controls the die lip drive mechanism to temporarily decrease the slit width of the extrusion outlet for cutting the extruded molding material.

The invention describes a method for producing a plastics film by a film-extruding machine, wherein at least two plastics materials from at least two reservoirs are fed together to one extruder or are each fed to a respective extruder, the plastics materials are melted in the extruder or in the extruders and are conveyed as a melt strand or as melt strands into a die head, the melt Strand or the melt strands are spread out flat in the die head and is/are extruded from a die of the die head as a melt film, and the melt film and/or the film sheet formed by cooling is/are drawn off by at least one take-off roll. It should particularly be noted that measured values are recorded by means of a measuring device for at least one property of at least one plastics material and/or at least one melt strand /d/ or the melt film and/or the film sheet and/or for a machine parameter of the film-extruding machine and that a first plastics material is a plastics material with varying material properties and a second plastics material is a plastics material with substantially constant material properties, wherein the first and the second plastics materials are fed to the extruder or the extruders in relative proportions, the relative proportions being varied according to the measured values for the property.

The invention relates to a method for calibrating adjusting means (120) for adjusting a nozzle slot (112) of a discharge nozzle (110) for a film track (FB) on a flat film machine (100), comprising the following steps: specifying a calibration position (KP) for the adjusting means (120), performing a controlling intervention to change the adjusting position (SP) of the adjusting means (120), acquiring the reaching of the calibration position (KP) of the adjusting means (120).
