Methods, apparatuses, systems, and techniques relate to an extruder unit for producing preforms with a tube-like wall from a polymer melt and an associated extrusion process. The extruder unit has a receptacle for an exchangeable dispensing tool, it furthermore comprises at least two different and alternately usable profiling devices. These profiling devices have outlet-side fastening structures, which correspond in the various profiling devices and form the receptacle for the exchangeable dispensing tool, so that the profiling devices can be connected alternately to the same dispensing tool. In this way, any dispensing tool, depending on the wish of the customer, can be operated with different profiling devices, in particular, on the one hand, to carry out profiling by mandrel body movement or profiling by nozzle body movement.

Methods, apparatuses, systems, and techniques relate to a tube-forming device for an extruder unit or an extrusion device and a tube-forming process. The tube-forming device comprises at least one shaping sleeve, which is designed to shape a supplied stream of polymer melt from a substantially strand-like cross section into a tubular cross section. The shaping sleeve has a guiding passage embedded in the sleeve wall, such that the guiding passage is a cavity which lies within the sleeve wall and, in the radial direction of the shaping sleeve, is enclosed in a sealed manner with respect to the outer surfaces.

The present invention relates to a volume pulsed deformation plasticating and conveying method and device by an eccentric rotor. The rotation of the eccentric rotor and the rolling of the rotor in the inner cavity of a stator during constant reverse revolutions cause the volume of the material between the eccentric rotor and the stator to periodically change alternatively along the axial direction and the radial direction of the stator, thereby enabling the volume pulsed deformation plasticating and conveying of the material. The volume pulsed deformation plasticating and conveying device consists of a stator, of which the inner cavity comprises multiple alternatingly disposed spiral segments and straight segments, and an eccentric rotor comprising multiple alternatingly disposed eccentric spiral segments and eccentric straight segments. The eccentric rotor is disposed in the inner cavity of the stator. The eccentric spiral segments and the eccentric straight segments of the eccentric rotor correspond one-to-one with the spiral segments and straight segments of the stator. The present invention can be used as the extruding system of an extruder or be combined with different plunger injection units to form a plasticating injection device of an injection molding machine. The present invention has a short thermo-mechanical distance for the materials, low energy consumption, and wide adaptability.

The invention relates to novel screw elements for multi-screw extruders with screw profiles co-rotating in pairs and being fully self-wiping in pairs, to the use of the screw elements in multi-screw extruders and to a process for extruding plastic compositions.
