45 EXTRUSION & RECYCLING ASIA 2/2025 EXTRUSION TOOLING 性，流变学实验室用户可预测材料行 为、虚拟优化工具几何结构，并通过 3D CAD 查看项目效果。挤出实验室通 过经过验证的 Guill 设计提供单挤出和 共挤出能力。该实验室还提供独特的 挤出工艺，如长丝和管状终端产品的 旋转模具挤出。其服务项目包括挤出 模具、模具清洁、样品检验和成品测 试。用户甚至可以在 Guill 测试实验室 计算其挤出加工时间。 美国工厂的 Jacob Mancure 和 Peter Leary 将代表 Guill 参展，Guill Tool 欧 洲公司的团队将予以协助。Guill 通过 全球销售代表网络与领先挤出机制造 商合作，将产品售往世界各地。 O riginally developed for the popular Guill Bullet tool, a unique Guill extrusion head that eliminates fastening hardware with a fixed center design, multi-port spiral flow and gum space adjustment, Cam-Lock is now available on many of the company’s existing extrusion heads. The design allows quick and easy assembly and disassembly of the crosshead and eliminates the need for socket head caps screws. By removing and replacing the internals, a different pro le can be extruded in minutes rather than hours. Since the Cam-Lock resets the internals in the right configuration every time, there is far less chance of error, compared to the assembly and misalignment issues with torqued socket set screws. It only takes half a turn to remove and install the de ector tip and no fastening hardware is required. Additional features include fast tool changes (threaded retaining ring for the die and threaded tip retainer), dies remove from the front and tips from the back, tooling retainers for gum space adjustment, vacuum connections, simpli ed cleaning and reduced downtime and operating costs. For a busy shop with multiple products produced or a shop processing challenging materials that require frequent cleaning, this Cam-Lock feature on Guill heads offers significant time, labor and cost savings. By rotating the tooling in relation to the material ow, the new rotary head design increases the wall strength of an extrusion, thereby allowing a thin- ner wall with less material. Bene ts include only rotating the die, random- izing any gauge bands or thickness variations and, in some cases, improv- ing material properties of the end prod- uct. Various sizes of tubing can easily be accommodated with this unique de- sign that radically reduces set-up and changeover times. Typical applications for rotary heads include medical and multi-lumen tubing plus various high- end extrusions with interlocking layers or multiple striping requirements. Guill’s Single Point Concentricity extrusion crosshead uses micro- ne adjustment screws for precise concen- tricity adjustment, reaching 0.008” or ner per revolution. This single point concentricity adjustment is a unique Guill innovation for the extrusion of thin- walled jacketing and precision ID/OD tubing. One adjustment bolt controls 360° of adjustment. Features include the patented Cam-Lock de ector for quick changeovers, with a residence time of one minute at .5 lb/hr material ow, optimized usage with extruders measuring ½” and ¾” and a max die ID of .250.” Additionally, the Guill single- point crosshead not only accepts both vacuum and micro-air accessories but is also ideal for pressure and sleeving applications. Fluoropolymer designs are available upon request. Guill Labs combines the company’s state-of-the-art rheology lab services for materials testing with a new facility focused on test extrusion processes. Measuring the ow characteristics of plastics and rubber allows users of the rheology lab to predict how the material will behave, virtually optimize tool ge- ometry and see their project in 3D CAD. The extrusion lab o ers single and co- extrusion capabilities with validated Guill designs. Access to exotic extru- sion processes such as rotary die extru- sion of lament and tubular end-prod- ucts is also available. Services include extrusion tooling, die cleaning, sample inspection and end-product testing. Us- ers can actually calculate their extrusion run time in the Guill test lab. Jacob Mancure and Peter Leary from the factory in America will represent Guill during the show, assisted by the team from Guill Tool Europe. Guill mar- kets its products worldwide through a network of sales representatives and in tandem with leading extruder builders.
