A device for guiding and/or forming a plastics profile includes a region of alterable cross-section formed by a wound flat element. The wound flat element overlaps in a region and is in close mutual contact in the overlapping region. The wound flat element includes a flexible and resiliently deformable coating thereon. A device is provided for altering the region of alterable cross-section.

Device for guiding and/or forming an extruded strand of plastic and process for coating a flat material

A method for controlling the temperature of a polymer melt in an extrusion tool includes flowing the polymer melt via at least one flow channel from an input to an output and around at least one temperature-control element in the at least one flow channel. The temperature control element includes a plurality of temperature control units. The temperature of the polymer melt flowing around the temperature-control element is controlled by individually controlling each of the temperature-control units so as to vary a degree of temperature control of the temperature-control element such that a degree of temperature control is controllable to be the same or different at locations throughout the temperature control-element.

Method and device for controlling the temperature of polymer melt

A device for sealing an extruded plastics material profile in at least one of an inlet region and an outlet region of a tank is disposed at an end face of the tank. The device includes a rigid element and a closed annular cross section formed of a resilient material and including a cavity. An outer peripheral shape of the annular cross section is disposed against the rigid element. The annular cross section is alterable by applying a vacuum to the cavity, wherein the annular cross section is configured to be applied to an outside of the plastics material profile. A stretching device is disposed against the rigid element and is configured to stretch the resilient material along an extrusion axis during an alteration of the annular cross section.

Device for sealing a cooling tank for an extruded plastic profile

An extrusion line for producing plastics material profiles includes an extruder, a calibration station, and an additional piece of downstream equipment. A mold includes an internal cooling system having a branch for a coolant disposed inside the mold; wherein a coolant flow distribution is controllable.
