Process and Structure of Screw Extruder


Extrusion molding, also known as press molding, is a molding method that heats and melts the polymer solid material into a melt, and uses the extrusion effect of the screw to push the viscous fluid material through the die to form a continuous body with a cross-sectional shape similar to the die shape. The corresponding equipment is called a screw extruder.

Screw extruder extrusion process

Material (granules or powder) – added to the extruder – heated and transported forward – the material becomes a melt and is extruded – the melt enters the die head for molding – the molding sleeve is molded – cooled in the cooling tank – hauled – cut (or coiled)

Classification of screw extruder

  • According to the number of screws, it can be divided into single-screw extruder and multi-screw extruder;
  • According to whether it can be vented, it can be divided into venting extruder and non-venting extruder;
  • According to the presence or absence of screws, it can be divided into screw extruder and screwless extruder;
  • According to the position of the screw in space, it can be divided into horizontal extruder and vertical extruder.

Screw Extruder

Lab Screw Extruder can be applied to the mixing, plasticizing and extrusion of engineering plastics, modified plastics, masterbatch and other high polymers with the features of uniformly dispersed, plastics coloring and filling to modify. It can be used in laboratory tests, quality control, teaching research and small-scale production.

The efficiency of small extruder in laboratory is mainly reflected in high output, low energy consumption and low manufacturing cost. In terms of function, extruder has been not only used in polymer extrusion molding and mixing process, its use has been widened to food, feed, electrode, explosives, building materials, packaging, pulp, ceramics and other fields.

Twist Test Methods and Influencing Factors

Image
  Twist test is an important part of yarn inspection. It is related to the strength, elongation, appearance, style, etc. of yarns and fabrics. Different yarns have different structural characteristics, and their twist testing methods are also different. Basic concept To understand twist testing, you must first understand what twisting is. Twisting is a necessary condition for yarn formation. Short fibers can be made into yarns with certain physical and mechanical properties through twisting; filaments often need to be twisted in order to increase the tightness between single filaments, facilitate processing, and improve fabric properties. Number of twists Twisting is to cause two cross-sections of parallel straight fiber slivers to rotate relative to each other. The number of relative rotations of the two cross-sections is called the number of twists. Twist Twist refers to the number of twists per unit length of yarn . Twist coefficient In actual production, the twist coefficient is of

Combing Process in Spinning

Image
Before processing cotton, wool, and silk fibers into fabrics, the process of removing impurities and short fibers in the fibers with a combing machine is called combing. The texture, washability and durability of the fabric produced through this process are greatly improved compared with carded fabrics. The following introduces the composition of the combing machine and the combing process. The kinematic coordination relationship of the main parts on the combing machine is indicated by a dial. The disc is mounted on the combing machine and rotates synchronously with the cylinder, which is generally called the indexing disc. The index plate is divided into 40 equal parts along the circumference, and each equal part is 9°, which becomes one index. The working cycle refers to the time interval between the combing cylinder of the intermittent combing machine corresponding to the two actions of combing the whiskers. That is: the first row of needles in the combing cylinder goes to the botto

Garment Dyeing-Special Dyeing Method In Textile

Image
Garment dyeing is a relatively special dyeing process for textiles and garments. Many people may not know much about this dyeing process. In the impression of most people, textile and clothing products are dyed in the fabric period, and garment dyeing is a dyeing process that breaks people’s cognitive limitations on textile dyeing. ​What is garment dyeing ​Garment dyeing means that dyeing the one not in the fabric type but in the garment type itself. The garment type mentioned above include socks, towels, sportswear, shirts, plush toys (without fillers), T-shirts, pants, bathrobes, handkerchiefs, bath mats, carpets, scarves, etc. The material of these garments can be wool, linen, silk and cotton of natural fibers. But most garments are made of cotton or a cotton-rich blends. Garment dyeing imparts vibrant colors to garments. The clothes such as denim garments, tops, sportswear and casual clothing with garment dyeing can provide a distinctive special effect. Garment dyeing method Garmen
