Abstract
A method and mechanism for continuously making a plastic film with shaped profiles on the surface including extruding a continuous length of interlocking profiles from a die shaped with a precise shape for interlockingly engaging with another profile and directing a flow of coolant on the profile from a stationary coolant means and adjusting the direction of flow of coolant relative to the direction of movement of the profile or controlling the pressure and temperature of the flow of coolant to control the cooling rate and the shape of the profile.
Claims8
In the method of making plastic film with shaped profiles on the surface comprising the steps of:
- extruding a continuous length of an interlocking profile from a die opening with the profile having a precise shape for interlockingly engaging with another profile;
- and directing a flow of coolant onto the extruded profile of warm plastic and adjusting the direction of flow of coolant relative to the direction of movement of the profile for controlling the cooling rate and shape of the profile.
In the method of making plastic film with shaped profiles on the surface comprising the steps of:
- extruding a continuous length of an interlocking profile from a die opening with the profile having a precise shape for interlockingly engaging with another profile;
- and directing a flow of coolant against the heated profile and adjusting the pressure of coolant flow for controlling the cooling rate and shape of the profile.
In the method of making plastic film with shapes profiles on the surface, the steps of:
- extruding a continuous length of an interlocking profile from a die opening with the profile having a precise shape for interlockingly engaging with another profile;
- directing a flow of coolant onto the extruded profile of warm plastic;
- and varying the temperature of the coolant flow for controlling the cooling rate and shape of the profile.
In the method of making plastic film with shaped profiles on the surface, the steps of:
- extruding a continuous length of an interlocking profile from a die opening with the profile having a precise shape for interlockingly engaging with another profile;
- directing a first flow of coolant against the heated profile length in a small jet shape;
- and directing a second flow of coolant in a small jet shape against the heated profile length;
- said first flow being directed laterally relative to the axis of the profile and said second flow being directed in a direction laterally opposing the first flow of coolant.
In the method of making plastic film with shaped profiles on the surface, the steps of:
- extruding a continuous length of an interlocking profile from a die opening with the profile having a precise shape for interlockingly engaging with another profile;
- directing a first flow of coolant in a small jet shape against the heated profile length;
- and directing a second flow of coolant in a small jet shape against the heated profile length;
- said second flor of coolant being positioned after the first flow of coolant in the direction of profile lenth movement.
