A method for producing a tube, which includes: extruding a melt-fabricable fluororesin from a mold of an extruder into a form of a tube, leading the extruded melt-fabricable fluororesin to a cooling device to cool the extruded melt-fabricable fluororesin, and winding a resulting cooled tube onto a winding reel using a winding device. A gas is fed from a head end of the tube wound onto the winding reel into a hollow of the tube, the gas in the hollow is allowed to pass through a gas-introducing entrance of the mold and then through a gas-discharging hole of the mold to discharge the gas outside, thereby allowing the gas to flow along the hollow, and an internal pressure of the hollow is kept higher than atmospheric pressure and lower than 0.5 kgf/cm.sup.2.

A film-making machine that produces stretch film includes an outlet device with an outlet gap for outlet of free-flowing film material and a rotatably mounted casting roll that receives the released free-flowing film material on a surface of the casting roll, and a cleaning device with a rotatably mounted cleaning roll that contacts the film material lying on the surface of the casting roll, wherein the cleaning device has an adjusting mechanism with a circumferential adjustment that adjusts a cleaning position of the cleaning roll along a circumferential direction of the casting roll.

Provided is a tube comprising a tetrafluoroethylene/fluoroalkyl vinyl ether copolymer, wherein the tube inner surface has a surface roughness Ra of 5 nm or less measured by atomic force microscopy (AFM) with an evaluation length set to 3 μm, and the tube has an amount of metals eluted from the tube inner surface of 0.30 ng/cm.sup.2 or less.

A method and device for producing a monoaxially or biaxially stretched plastic film are disclosed in which in the intermediate space (Z) tapering in a wedge shape to the contact line between the melt film or plastic film and the roller jacket spaced apart therefrom or the roller surface spaced apart therefrom of the cooling roller, at least one device for preventing precipitation of condensate (K) in the intermediate space (Z) is used and is designed such that precipitation of condensate (a) on the underside of the melt film or plastic film facing the roller jacket (9) or on the roller jacket of the cooling roller is prevented, and/or a condensate (K) which has precipitated there evaporates or vaporises, and/or condensate disposed in the intermediate space is transported away, suctioned off, or blown out and/or runs out to the side.

An improved method and an improved device for producing a monoaxially or biaxially stretched plastic film are distinguished, inter alia, by the following features: In the intermediate space (Z) tapering in a wedge shape to the contact line (111, 11′) between the melt film or plastic film (5, 5′) and the roller jacket (9) spaced apart therefrom or the roller surface (9′) spaced apart therefrom of the cooling roller (1, 1′), at least one device for preventing precipitation of condensate (K) in the intermediate space (Z) is used and is designed such that precipitation of condensate (a) on the underside (5a) of the melt film or plastic film (5, 5′) facing the roller jacket (9) or on the roller jacket (9) of the cooling roller (1, 1′) is prevented, and/or a condensate (K) which has precipitated there evaporates or vaporises, and/or condensate disposed in the intermediate space (Z) is transported away, suctioned off, or blown out and/or runs out to the side.

The present invention provides a process for the viable production of lyocell cellulose continuous filament yarns.

A device may generate a multi-layer stack of sheets that may be adhered into a slab-shaped preform for thermal drawing. The sheets may include sublayers. Stacking the sub-layered sheets results in accumulation of layers in the final fabricated preform. The stacking process may use mechanical translation and conveyance to support placement of the sheets and fabrication of the stack.

A method of producing a film in accordance with an aspect of the present invention includes: a first kneading and forming step of forming a composition obtained by kneading a polyolefin resin and a plasticizer; a stretching step of stretching the composition; a composition cleaning step of immersing the composition in a cleaning solvent and removing the plasticizer; a separation step of separating, from the cleaning solvent which has been used in the cleaning step, the plasticizer which has been eluted in the cleaning solvent; and a second kneading and forming step of forming a composition obtained by kneading a polyolefin resin and the plasticizer which has been separated in the separation step.
