Abstract
The adapter ( ) is provided for a static mixer ( ) to carry out a shaped dispensing of a viscid mixture from the mixer. The adapter is formed in the shape of a plastic injection-molded part such that it is mountable on a discharge orifice ( ) of the mixer. It forms a passage with a variable cross-section with a wall ( ), with the flow of the mixture being guidable though said passage to a slit-shaped outlet opening ( ). The passage wall ( ) is provided with linear cutting aids ( ) on the outside which extend at least approximately parallel to the slit direction of the outlet opening ( ). The passage wall can be cut through along these cutting aids so that a new, slit-shaped outlet opening ( ) is created which is shorter than the original outlet opening in the slit direction. The linear cutting aids are arranged such that the newly made outlet openings have pre-set cross-sectional areas.
