Extrusion International 5-2025

34 Extrusion International 5/2025 К 2025 improving material properties of the end product. Vari- ous sizes of tubing can easily be accommodated with this unique design 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 concentric - ity 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 ac- cepts both vacuum and micro-air accessories but is also ide- al for pressure and sleeving applications. Fluoropolymer designs are available upon request. Guill Labs combines the company’s state-of-the-art rhe- ology 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, vir- tually optimize tool geometry and see their project in 3D CAD. The extrusion lab offers single and co-extrusion ca- pabilities with validated Guill designs. Access to exotic ex- trusion processes such as rotary die extrusion of lament and tubular end-products is also available. Services include extrusion tooling, die cleaning, sample inspection and end- product testing. Users 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 markets its products worldwide through a network of sales representatives and in tandem with leading extruder builders.
