Plastic extruder Gearbox

Operation of Plastic extruder Gearbox:

  • Run the Plastic extruder Gearbox for 5~10 minutes without load (if the Plastic extruder Gearbox is equipped with the gear pump of motor, start the pump first) to appropriately lubricate the bearings and gears. If the Plastic extruder Gearbox is used for the first time, after the idle running, add loads step by step at 20% of rated load each time for 1~2 hours until the full rated load. Put into service if everything is OK.
  • During the operation, monitor and write down from time to time the temperature rise of the Plastic extruder Gearbox. If the temperature rise of the Plastic extruder Gearbox exceeds 70℃ or the oil temperature exceeds 100℃, stop the Plastic extruder Gearbox to find out and solve the problems. Contact our after-sales service department if necessary. Replace the lubricating oil before starting the Plastic extruder Gearbox again.
  • The Plastic extruder Gearbox shall be stopped as follows: Shut down the feeding hopper and, after all the materials in the bucket has been transported out, turn off the power supply to the Plastic extruder Gearbox (if the Plastic extruder Gearbox is equipped with the gear pump of motor, shut down the pump first)
  • Run the Plastic extruder Gearbox every 2 to 3 weeks in the event of long idleness.
  • Conduct anti-rust measures to the inside and outside of Plastic extruder Gearbox in the event of idleness over 6 months:

Plastic extruder Gearbox
Single screw extruder principle
The single screw is generally divided into three sections in the effective length. The effective length of the three sections is determined according to the diameter of the screw and the pitch of the screw. Generally, it is divided into one third.
The last thread of the material port is called the conveying section: the material is required to be plasticized here, but it must be preheated and compacted. In the past, the old extrusion theory believed that the material here was loose, and later proved that the material here is actually The solid plug, that is to say, the material here is a solid like a plug after being squeezed, so it is its function as long as the conveying task is completed.
The second section is called the compression section. At this time, the volume of the groove is gradually reduced from large to large, and the temperature is to reach the degree of plasticization of the material. Here, the compression is generated by the conveying section three, where it is compressed to one, which is called the compression ratio of the screw -- 3:1, some machines have also changed, and the finished plasticized material enters the third stage.
The third section is the metering section, where the material maintains the plasticizing temperature, just as accurately and quantitatively transports the melt material as the metering pump to supply the head, at which time the temperature cannot be lower than the plasticizing temperature, generally slightly higher.
Extruder energy saving editor
The energy saving of the extruder can be divided into two parts: one is the power part and the other is the heating part.
Power saving: Most of the inverters are used. The energy saving method is to save the residual energy of the motor. For example, the actual power of the motor is 50Hz, and you only need 30Hz in production to produce enough. The excess energy consumption is vain. Wasted, the inverter is to change the power output of the motor to achieve energy saving.
Energy saving in heating part: Most of the energy saving in heating is energy saving by electromagnetic heater, and the energy saving rate is about 30%~70% of the old resistor ring.
work process
The plastic material enters the extruder from the hopper, and is transported forward by the rotation of the screw. During the forward movement, the material is heated by the barrel, sheared by the screw and compressed to melt the material. Thus, a change between the three states of the glassy state, the high elastic state, and the viscous flow state is achieved.
In the case of pressurization, the material in a viscous flow state is passed through a die having a certain shape, and then becomes a continuum having a cross-section and a mouth-like appearance according to the die. It is then cooled and shaped to form a glassy state, thereby obtaining the part to be processed.
Composition editor
In the extruder, in general, the most basic and most versatile is a single screw extruder. It mainly includes: six parts: transmission, feeding device, barrel, screw, machine head and die.

Plastic extruder Gearbox
Transmission section
The transmission part is usually composed of an electric motor, a reduction gear box and bearings. During the extrusion process, the screw speed must be stable and cannot change with the change of the screw load, so as to maintain the uniform quality of the obtained product. However, in different occasions, the screw can be required to be shifted to achieve the requirement that one device can extrude different plastics or different products. Therefore, this part generally uses AC commutator motor, DC motor and other devices to achieve stepless speed change, the general screw speed is 10~100 rev / min.
The function of the transmission system is to drive the screw, which supplies the torque and speed required by the screw during the extrusion process, usually consisting of a motor, a Gearbox and a bearing. Under the premise that the structure is basically the same, the manufacturing cost of the Gearbox is roughly proportional to its external dimensions and weight. Because the shape and weight of the Gearbox are large, it means that there are many materials consumed during manufacturing, and the bearings used are also relatively large, which increases the manufacturing cost.

Feeding device
Most of the feedstocks are pelletized, but strips or powders can also be used. The charging equipment usually uses a conical hopper with a volume requirement of at least one hour. A shut-off device is provided at the bottom of the hopper to adjust and cut the flow, and a sight hole and a metering device are installed on the side of the hopper. Some hoppers may also have a pressure relief device or heating device that prevents the feedstock from absorbing moisture from the air, or some of the cartridges may also have their own agitator for automatic feeding or feeding.


Hopper
The hopper is generally made in a symmetrical form. A window is opened on the side of the hopper to observe the material level and the feeding condition. The bottom of the hopper has a opening and closing door to stop and adjust the feeding amount. Cover the top of the hopper to prevent dust, moisture and impurities from falling into it. When selecting the material of the hopper, it is best to use lightweight, corrosion-resistant and easy-to-machine materials, generally using aluminum and stainless steel plates. The volume of the hopper depends on the size of the extruder and the loading method. Generally, the extrusion amount of the extruder is from 1 to 1.5 hours.


Plastic extruder Gearbox
There are two types of feeding methods: manual feeding and automatic feeding. The automatic feeding mainly includes spring feeding, blast feeding, vacuum feeding, conveying belt conveying and the like. In general, small extruders are manually loaded and large extruders are automatically loaded.


Classification of feeding methods
1 Gravity feeding:
Principle - The material enters the barrel by its own weight, including manual feeding, spring feeding, and blasting.
Features - simple structure and low cost. However, it is easy to cause uneven feeding, which affects the quality of the parts. It is only suitable for small size extruders.
2 Forced feeding:
Principle - Install a device in the hopper that applies external pressure to the material, forcing the material into the barrel of the extruder.
Features - can overcome the "bridge" phenomenon, so that the feeding is even. The feed screw is driven by the extruder screw through the drive chain to adjust its speed to the screw speed. The overload protection device can be activated when the feed port is blocked, thereby avoiding damage to the feeding device.
Cartridge
Generally, it is a metal material barrel made of alloy steel or composite steel pipe lined with alloy steel. Its basic characteristics are high temperature and pressure resistance, strong wear and corrosion resistance. Generally, the length of the barrel is 15 to 30 times its diameter, and the length is such that the material is sufficiently heated and plasticized uniformly. The barrel should have sufficient thickness and rigidity. The interior should be smooth, but some of the barrels are engraved with various grooves to increase the friction with the plastic. Electric heaters, temperature control devices and cooling systems are provided on the outside of the barrel with resistors, inductors and other means of heating.

Gearbox for Plastic extruder

There are three forms of material in the barrel:
(1) integral barrel
Processing method - processed on the whole material.
Advantages - easy to ensure high manufacturing accuracy and assembly accuracy, can simplify the assembly work, the cylinder is heated evenly, and more applications.
Disadvantages - Due to the large barrel length and high processing requirements, the requirements for processing equipment are also very strict. The inner surface of the barrel is difficult to repair after wear.
(2) Combination material
Processing method - the barrel is processed in several stages, and then the sections are connected by flanges or other forms.
Advantages - simple processing, easy to change the aspect ratio, mostly used to change the aspect ratio of the screw.
Disadvantages - high processing precision requirements, due to many segments, it is difficult to ensure the coaxiality of each segment, the flange connection breaks the uniformity of barrel heating, increases heat loss, heating and cooling system settings and maintenance More difficult
(3) Bimetallic barrel
Processing method - Inlay or cast a layer of alloy steel material inside the base of ordinary carbon steel or cast steel. It not only meets the material requirements of the barrel, but also saves precious metal materials.

Plastic extruder Gearbox
1 Bushing cartridge: The cartridge is fitted with a replaceable alloy steel bushing. Saving precious metals, the bushings can be replaced, and the life of the barrel is increased. But its design, manufacturing and assembly are more complicated.
2 Casting barrel: A layer of approximately 2 mm thick alloy is centrifugally cast on the inner wall of the barrel, and then the required inner diameter of the barrel is obtained by grinding. The alloy layer is well bonded to the base of the barrel, and the bonding along the axial length of the barrel is relatively uniform, has no tendency to peel off, does not crack, has excellent sliding performance, and has high wear resistance. long life.
1) The longitudinal groove of the inner wall of the barrel feeding section is opened
In order to increase the solids transport rate, one method is to increase the coefficient of friction of the surface of the cylinder by solid transport theory. Another method is to increase the area of ​​the material at the feed port through the cross section perpendicular to the screw axis. The formation of a longitudinal groove in the inner wall of the barrel feeding section and the taper of the inner wall of the section of the feeding section near the feeding port are the specifics of the two methods.
2) Forced cooling feed section barrel
There is also a method to increase the amount of solids transported. It is to cool the feeding section barrel, the purpose is to keep the temperature of the material to be conveyed below the softening point or melting point, to avoid the appearance of the melt film to maintain the solid friction property of the material.
With the above method, the conveying efficiency is increased from 0.3 to 0.6, and the amount of extrusion is less sensitive to changes in head pressure.

Gearbox-for-Plastic-extruder

Gearbox for Plastic extruder
The screw is the heart of the extruder and is a key component of the extruder. The performance of the screw determines the productivity, plasticizing quality, dispersion of the filler, melt temperature, power consumption, etc. of the extruder. . It is the most important part of the extruder, which can directly affect the application range and production efficiency of the extruder. The rotation of the screw exerts an extreme pressure on the plastic. The plastic can move, pressurize and obtain some heat from the friction in the cylinder. The plastic is mixed and plasticized during the movement of the cylinder, and the viscous flow state The melt is shaped while being extruded to flow through the die to obtain the desired shape. Like the barrel, the screw is also made of a high strength, heat and corrosion resistant alloy.
Due to the variety of plastics, their properties are also different. Therefore, in actual operation, in order to adapt to different plastic processing needs, the types of screws required are different, and the structures are also different. In order to maximize the efficiency of the plastics to maximize transportation, extrusion, mixing and plasticization.

The picture shows several more common screws. The basic parameters indicating the characteristics of the screw include the following: diameter, aspect ratio, compression ratio, pitch, groove depth, helix angle, screw and barrel clearance, and the like. The most common screw diameter D is approximately 45 to 150 mm. As the screw diameter increases, the processing capacity of the extruder increases accordingly, and the productivity of the extruder is proportional to the square of the screw diameter D. The ratio of the effective length to the diameter of the working part of the screw (referred to as the aspect ratio, expressed as L/D) is usually 18~25. Large L/D can improve the material temperature distribution, facilitate the mixing and plasticization of plastics, and reduce leakage and backflow.

Improve the production capacity of the extruder, the L/D large screw has strong adaptability and can be used for extrusion of various plastics; however, when the L/D is too large, the plastics will be degraded by the heating time and the screw When the self-weight increases, the free end flexes and sag, which easily causes the material to be scratched between the screw and the screw, and makes the manufacturing process difficult; the power consumption of the extruder is increased. A screw that is too short may cause poor plasticization of the kneading.
The half of the difference between the inner diameter of the barrel and the diameter of the screw is called the gap δ, which can affect the productivity of the extruder. As the δ increases, the productivity decreases. Usually, the control δ is preferably about 0.1 to 0.6 mm. δ is small, the material is subjected to a large shearing effect, which is beneficial to plasticization, but δ is too small, strong shearing action easily causes thermal mechanical degradation of the material, and at the same time, the screw is easily hung or rubbed against the wall of the cylinder, and When δ is too small, there is almost no leakage or backflow of the material, which affects the mixing of the melt to some extent.
The helix angle Φ is the angle between the thread and the cross section of the screw. As the Φ increases, the productivity of the extruder increases, but the shearing effect and the pressing force on the plastic are reduced. Usually, the helix angle is between 10° and 30 degrees. Between °, along the direction of the change of the length of the screw, often using an equidistant screw, taking the pitch equal to the diameter, the value of Φ is about 17 ° 41 '


The greater the compression ratio, the greater the compression ratio that the plastic receives. When the groove is shallow, it can produce a high shear rate for the plastic, which is beneficial to the heat transfer between the wall of the barrel and the material. The higher the material mixing and plasticizing efficiency, the lower the productivity; on the contrary, the groove is deep. The situation is just the opposite. Therefore, heat-sensitive materials (such as polyvinyl chloride) should be used with deep screw screws; for plastics with low melt viscosity and high thermal stability (such as polyamide), shallow screw screws should be used.

1. Segmentation of the screw
When the material moves forward along the screw, it undergoes changes in temperature, pressure, viscosity, etc. This change is different within the full length of the screw. According to the changing characteristics of the material, the screw can be divided into adding (sending) material segments and compressing. Segment and homogenization segment.
1. Three states of plastics and plastics
Plastics have two types of thermosetting and thermoplastic. After thermosetting plastics are molded and cured, they cannot be heated and melted. The thermoplastic molded article can be reheated and melted into other articles.
As the temperature changes, the thermoplastic produces a three-state change of glass state, high elastic state and viscous flow state. Repeated changes with temperature, the three states produce repeated changes.
a. Different characteristics of the polymer melt in the tri-state:
Glass state - plastic appears as a rigid solid; thermal motion energy is small, intermolecular force is large, deformation is mainly contributed by the deformation of the bond angle; after the external force is removed, the deformation is instantaneously restored, belonging to the general deformation.
Highly elastic state - plastic is a rubber-like substance; deformation is contributed by the orientation of the macromolecular stretch caused by the orientation of the segment, and the deformation value is large; after the external force is removed, the deformation can be recovered but time-dependent, which is a high elastic deformation.
Viscous flow state—plastics appear as highly viscous melts; thermal energy further intensifies the relative slip motion of chain molecules; deformation is irreversible and belongs to plastic deformation
b. Plastic processing and plastic tri-state:
Machinable in plastic glass. Stretch processing in high elastic state, such as wire drawing, pipe extrusion, blow molding and thermoforming. In the viscous flow state, it can be coated, rotomolded and injection molded.
When the temperature is higher than the viscous flow state, the plastic will thermally decompose, and when the temperature is lower than the glass state, the plastic will be embrittled. When the plastic temperature is higher than the viscous flow state or lower than the glass state, the thermoplastic tends to be seriously deteriorated and destroyed, so the two temperature zones should be avoided when processing or using the plastic product.
