Davis-Standard:
Global Advantage™
D
avis-Standard LLC will exhibit the depth of its Global Ad-
vantage™in extrusion and converting technology during K
2016 in Düsseldorf.
Technology being shown includes examples of extruder, feeds-
crew, die, unwind, and control system advancements as well
as the company’s innovative dsX™ technology and extensive
aftermarket capabilities. As an added benefit, Davis-Standard’s
team will host visitors at ER-WE-PA’s Erkrath facility for equip-
ment demonstrations. Following are highlights from Davis-
Standard’s K display:
Extruder with QSE Adapter
– This 3.5-inch (90mm) exrtruder
has preferred features such as computer designed feedscrews,
electrical barrel heating with air-cooling for each zone, and
simplified electrical installation. Mounted on the extruder will
be a QSE (Quick Screw Exchange) adapter for fast screw
changes without disturbing the downstream melt path.
High Speed Film & Foil Unwind
– Designed for thin substrates,
this two-position turret unwind is designed for an 800 meter-
per-minute splice speed for sensitive webs such as aluminum
foil at 6 µm. Unique splice unit controls and safety standards
create excellent reliabilty for high-speed splicing of complex
webs.
Feedscrew and Die Displays
– Davis-Standard is a global leader
in feedscrews and die designs for improved processing effi-
ciency. Multiple feedscrew designs and finishes will be shown
in the booth at the K Show, as well as a seven-layer die stand
from Davis-Standard’s Gloucester Engineering product line.
Also being promoted will be the new die rebuild services of-
fered by Davis-Standard Limited in the United Kingdom.

film and blown film equipment offers processors advantages
