For #screws, operators should recognize that even if the barrel is "at temperature," the screw may still be cold. Monitor "drift" & maintain proper temperature to ensure material sticks on the barrel @plastechmag. https://t.co/Am7GYTMN2Y #screws#extrusion#polymers#extruder
To switch from traditional to #SinglePoint concentricity on #Unicam, remove the four locking bolts that hold the adjustment ring in place @AMDMag. Turning the wrench on the back loosens the splitter and extracts it.

Gerjan mentioned that #GuillToolEurope worked on a dual head setup. It permits jacketing for a nylon & #PVC layer in one run despite the differences in melting points. This makes the process easier and helps to increase production.

Expanding on how #recycling impacts #extrusion, Gerjan highlights that imperfections in the raw material lead to imperfections in the extruded product. A thin skincoat can be used or recycled materials can be applied only on the inside.
