Abstract: Disclosed herein is a method and apparatus for automatic extrudate loading and alignment. An extrudate handling system includes a head end assembly and an imaging device (which may be part of the head end assembly). The imaging device is configured to image an end face of an extrudate, and generate, during translation of the extrudate, an imaging output signal indicative of a rotational position of the end face of the extrudate. The head end assembly includes a rotational effector to rotate the extrudate during translation thereof and a fixed effector rotationally fixed relative to a track. The extrudate handling system is able to determine the rotational position of the web angle of the extrudate and precisely adjust the rotational position while linearly translating the extrudate along the track. The extrudate handling system provides greater accuracy, reduced costs, and improved results.

Abstract: A method for green-to-fired shrinkage control in honeycomb ceramic article manufacture, including: measuring, prior to mixing, the particle size distribution properties of at least one fine particle size graphite pore former ingredient of a provided ceramic source batch mixture; calculating the expected shrinkage of the green body to the fired ceramic article based on the measured particle size distribution properties of the at least one fine particle graphite pore former; making the honeycomb ceramic article; measuring the shrinkage of the resulting fired honeycomb ceramic article; and adjusting the ceramic source batch mixture in a subsequent batch material schedule, as defined herein, wherein the adjusted ceramic source batch mixture provides finished honeycomb ceramic articles having controlled green-to-fired shrinkage.

Abstract: A method of making ceramic bodies includes systematically orienting the bodies during firing relative to a temperature gradient in a kiln. The systematic orientation of the bodies relative to the temperature gradient can allow for an average deviation of a measured shape of the ceramic bodies from a predetermined target contour shape to be less than what they would be if the bodies were oriented randomly relative to the temperature gradient.
