Abstract
In the case of this extrusion device, a die part with feed passageways for the plastic material on the inlet side and shaping slots on the outlet side, which are connected to the feed passageways, is supported on a stationary part. The die passageway for the skin of the honeycomb structure is formed by interaction of an adjustable die element with the die part on the outlet side. For this purpose, a disk spring column as die element is arranged around the die part and is supported on a tensioning element which is adjustable in the flow direction of the material. In the feeds of the die passageway is arranged an adjustable means for regulating the flow rate of the plastic material.
Claims3
An extrusion device for the production of honeycomb structures from plastic material, comprising a die part supported on a stationary part, feed passageways for the plastic material on an inlet side and shaping slots on an outlet side, which are connected to the feed passageways, a die element, which is adjustable by means of adjustment means and, with the die part, forms on the outlet side a die passageway for the skin of the honeycomb structures, the die passageway being in connection via feeds outwardly of the feed passageways on the die part to the inlet side, wherein, for the formation of the die passageway, a disk spring column is arranged concentrically around the die part and is supported on a tensioning element, which is adjustble in flow direction of the material to control the flow in the die passageway, and an adjustable means for regulating the flow rate of the plastic material is arranged upstream of the feeds to the die passageway.
