    摘要: A device (1) for filtering plastic melt having an inlet valve (14), an outlet valve (15) and a filter canister (2), wherein a cavity (3) closable by means of a cover (4) is formed and into which a melt channel (20) opens. In the filter canister (2) there is arranged a plurality of filter cartridges (5), which are each formed by a filter substrate (6) and a filter lattice (7). The filter substrate (6) comprises a wall having openings, said wall defining an internal space (8), which opens through an outlet (9) into a collection channel (10). The filter lattice (7) covers the openings of the filter substrate (6). The melt channel (20) is adjacent to the inlet valve (14) and may be brought into fluid communication with an outlet channel (16) via the inlet valve (14). The collection channel (10) is adjacent to the outlet valve (15) and may be brought into fluid communication with an outlet channel (18) via the outlet valve (15). The cover (4) fixes the filter lattices (7) onto the filter substrates (6).

    摘要: 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.

    摘要: The present specification generally relates an aliphatic polyester material and a process for converting said aliphatic polyester material into a textile that is preferable for use as an artificial leather substrate. The present invention discloses: (i) a novel aliphatic polyester composition comprising a polyhydroxyalkanoate (referred to herein as PHA), an ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer resin (referred to herein as EVA) or similarly functional such material, and an ester of citrate acid plasticizer or similarly functional such material; and (ii) an inventive process for converting the novel aliphatic polyester composition into a textile by (a) melt extruding the aliphatic polyester material into an aliphatic polyester sheet; (b) heating said sheet; and (c) monoaxially or biaxially orienting said sheet in the machine direction followed by orientation in the transverse direction; and/or heating the monoaxially or biaxially oriented sheet at a temperature above the Tg of both the polyhydroxyalkanoate and ethylene-vinyl acetate resin components but below the melting point of the polyhydroxyalkanoat component.

    摘要: An extruder head assembly includes an extruder head having an extrusion line which is inserted in a cylindrical seat formed in said extruder head; the extruder head includes a locking means configured to hold the extrusion line in a working position; the locking means being actuated to release the extrusion line and allow the extraction thereof from the seat. The locking means include dowels that are radially movable between a locking position and a release position, the release position allowing the extraction of the extrusion line.
