GLS™ TPE Infant Care Solutions Guide - Product Selection Guide (Chinese) TPEs for Molded Case Circuit Breaker Phase Barrier Extruder information and processing guidelines for Syncure™ XLPE including temperature, flame at die tip, line speed, screw cooling and purge compound (English language version)

Structural foam molding machines (Figure 1) are equipped with a plasticizing extruder and a separate transfer cylinder for quicker injection. TEMPERATURE PROFILE When setting the cylinder temperature, the melt temperature in the feed section should be lowered. Processing stages PRESSURE PROFILE Compact Molding Structured Foam Molding Cycle Time Pr es su re The main reason for the use of Hydrocerol Chemical Foaming Agents is to achieve weight reduction of plastic parts, which in turn saves material costs and supports a more sustainable profile to the molded part.

To comply with all of these standards meant covering the wire with more than one layer of jacketing and insulation materials – and that meant running the product through the extruder more than once.  The manufacturer used the new material to produce finished cable and wire with a single pass through the extruder, which simplified production, reduced costs and freed capacity. Increased capacity: Reduced cycle times from the single extruder pass yielded an increase in manufacturing capacity.

Customizable co-extruded tack layer film that lowers VOC emissions by eliminating secondary coating and drying operations; and avoids use of liquid solvents Versaflex™ PF formulations are specially developed for the manufacture of co-extruded surface protective films Versaflex™ PF formulations are specially developed for the manufacture of co-extruded surface protective films (Chinese language version)

The automated pultrusion process fabricates continuous glass or carbon fiber-reinforced, constant cross-section profiles with consistent, uniform properties.  For the brace, Avient's engineering team developed and analyzed three options: a unidirectional, hybrid carbon and glass fiber profile; a unidirectional carbon fiber profile; and finally, a profile made with both a unidirectional carbon fiber and a transverse engineered fabric, which had the advantage of minimizing any potential cracks from propagating. The third profile was also 41% lighter than aluminum, with a 50% increase in flexural stiffness, and maintained torsional rigidity slightly better than that of aluminum.

A basic ergonomic screwdriver handle profile with three distinctive contouring methods is shown in Figure 8. Method B: The same handle profile is again cored out for optimal wall thickness. Method C: The same handle profile is given flute cuts that provide ample interlocks for applying and resisting axial loads.
