Transformation Process : Film Extrusion

Problem

caused by

Solution

In the extrusion process, the extrusion pressure reaches maximum limit The PP in the adapter, filter or nozzle is not  melted yet Check the temperature profile of the cylinder and choose a larger warm-up time 
Dirty filters Change filter
The regulation of pressure doesn't  work constantly Check performing of the regulation of pressure

The difference in pressures before and after the filter  is above the threshold value

The PP is too cold

Increase the extrusion temperature and the filter temperature

Dirty filters Change the filter
The melt mass that leaves the nozzle, it is not homogeneous The fabric of the filter is perforated Change the filter
Low adjusted temperature Increase extrusion temperature, as suitable,  until the mass stays homogeneous
Fluctuations in pressure

inconstant granulated feeding

Check in the mixer and in the introduction if there is bridge formation of granulated

Mistaken temperature program Variations of the temperature in diverse areas of the extruder in steps of 10 iC
activation is not stable Confirmation of the electronics of activator
The cutting and granulated mixture  it is not homogeneous Confirmation of the operation of the regulation of pressure
The regulation of pressure doesn't work constantly Variation of the temperature of the areas I and II of the extruder
The feeding of the PP in the extruder is not constant
