摘要 |
The invention relates to an apparatus for extruding thermoplastic material, comprising an extruder screw (2) which is mounted in a housing (1), comprises a plasticizing section (P) on the inlet side, a degasification section (E) upstream of an outlet section (A), a flow arrester (S) between the plasticizing section (P) and the degasification section (E) with a screw section with a counter-rotating delivery flight (3), and at least one flow channel (5) bridging the flow arrester (S) and containing a melt filter (4). In order to reduce the driving power of the extruder screw (2) it is proposed that a sleeve (7), which encompasses the screw (6) and is mounted in the housing (1) in a rotationally fixed manner, is associated with the screw section that forms the flow arrester (S), and the screw (6) in the screw section of the flow arrester (S) has a smaller screw diameter in relation to the plasticizing section (P) and preferably also to the degasification section (E). |
