Method and apparatus for spinning meltable material

摘要

A spinner head (10) is used in combination with a machine for processing and spinning feedstock material. The spinner head includes a base (12) and a cover (16) spaced from the base (12). A plurality of discrete closely spaced elongate heating elements (20) are positioned between the base (12) and the cover (16) forming a barrier through which the feedstock material may be processed. The heating elements (20) may be individually heated to a temperature sufficient to process the feedstock material therein. The spinner head (10) is rotated to expel the feedstock material through the spaces (21) between the heating elements.
