The present invention relates to a casting apparatus for formation of a resin-made membrane which is made to be capable of accomplishing a stable pressure reduction through a suction chamber irrespective of the dimension of an interval between a die and a cooling roll. Thus, in the apparatus according to this invention, a suction chamber is disposed independently of a die and is located to define a necessary seal gap with respect to a cooling roll. Further, a circumferentially moving mechanism is provided to shift the suction chamber along the circumferential directions of the cooling roll while maintaining the necessary seal gap. This invention is applicable, for example, to a biaxial oriented film machine, a non-oriented film machine, a sheet machine, and others.

Casting apparatus for formation of resin-made membrane

The present invention relates to a casting apparatus for formation of a resin-made membrane, which comprises a temperature adjusting unit (a temperature sensor, a heating wire type heater and a temperature controller) whereby an inner wall surface temperature of a suction chamber can be set to a desired temperature. Thus, if a design is made to prevent the temperature of the inner wall surface of the suction chamber from dropping, no contamination of the inner wall of the suction chamber by a volatile matter occurs, so that it is possible to prevent the volatile matter from dropping onto a cooling roll to make a membrane dirty.
