Abstract
An injection molding machine having a barrel and a reciprocating and rotatable screw disposed therein. A combination heat transfer and stratification device is disposed between the screw and the outlet of the barrel. The device includes a generally tubular portion having radially outwardly extending ribs. The ribs are in contact with the inner wall of the barrel. Heating means supply heat to the portion of the barrel containing the device and heat is transmitted through the rib portions. A process is disclosed whereby plastic is partially melted in the screw section and then stratified for final melting and thereby reduces mixing to provide a mottled appearance or plastic parts containing long fine filaments such as fine wires.
