Melt-sealing device for extruders for the processing of thermoplastic polymers or rubber

摘要

A melt-sealing device for extruders for thermoplastic polymers or rubber for sealing off the gear unit side against high-melt pressure, in which sealing is effected by the configuration of the extruder screw which includes an intake section, a compression section having a channel depth that decreases in the conveying direction, a metering section with a constant screw channel depth, a smooth annular melt channel section, and a blister element with an annular gap for the sealing melt.
