Extrusion International 5-2019

Extrusion International 5/2019 deflector, there are no material hang-ups when extracting the deflector, allowing for faster and easier cleaning and changeover. The NEW 500 Series also features the latest Center-Stage concentricity adjustment system that significantly reduces pressure on the tooling, allowing easier and more precise concentricity adjustments without loosening the face bolts. Easy-Out inserts for the adjusting bolts also allow simple re- placement of locked or damaged adjusting bolts, which fur- ther saves on repair and downtime. Another innovative feature of this new rubber/silicone cross- head is a cast aluminum liquid-fed cooling sleeve that allows the user to switch out the cooling jacket in the event of a line obstruction, again reducing downtime compared to tra- ditional integrated cooling systems. The NEW 500 Series crosshead with MAGS gum space adjust- ment is a drop-in replacement on most existing NRM lines, however this crosshead design can also be adapted to fit any extruder design or line layout. The addition of a newly designed flow inlet channel reduces the shear and heat that is generated as the materials are be- ing processed. This leads to lower head pressures allowing the material to move through the head in a much more bal- anced and even flow. All crossheads supplied by Guill are furnished with a tool kit for assembly and disassembly as well as a detailed operator’s instruction manual. The engineering team at Guill will gladly assist users in the implementation and operation of the NEW 500 series crosshead.
