    摘要: A tube forming apparatus (10) for multi-dimensional controlled forming of polymeric tube includes a housing (12) that extends around a longitudinal axis (L) and between a rear end (12A) and a discharge end (12B) thereof. The housing (12) has an inside surface (12F) that extends between the rear end (12A) and the discharge end (12B). The inside surface (12F) forms an interior area (12C) inside the housing (12). The tube forming apparatus includes a core tube assembly (14) that includes an exterior core tube (14A) and an inner core tube (14B) positioned partially therein. The tube forming apparatus includes a die (18) that has an inner die-surface (18F). A diverter tip (16) is mounted in and extends from the first inner tube end (14G) into the die (18) such that a die opening (G1) is formed between the inner die-surface (18F) and the exterior tip-surface (16F). The tube forming apparatus includes a core tube adjustment system (30) mounted proximate the rear end (12A) of the housing. The core tube adjustment (30) system includes one or both of an axial displacement device (40) configured to axially position the core tube assembly (14) for modulating wall thickness of the tube (20) and an angular displacement device (50) configured to modulate the inner core tube (14B), relative to the longitudinal axis (L), for modulating concentricity of the tube (20).

    摘要: A screw for a plasticating apparatus has one or more helical flights. A portion of the screw has a plurality of advancing grooves arranged in a noncontinuous helix cut in the screw. The advancing grooves are dimensioned to receive material therein as the material is conveyed through the barrel. The screw has a plurality of noncontinuous cross-cut grooves traversing one or more of the advancing grooves. The cross-cut grooves have a second helix angle greater than the first helix angle and less than ninety degrees; and/or one or more of the cross-cut grooves have a third helix angle of about ninety degrees.
