• What To Do When Resin Degradation Pollutes Material in A Single Screw Extruder? Analyze And Adjust Screw Elements To Solve It!

  This article explains how to identify and resolve resin degradation in single screw extruders. Resin degradation, often caused by stagnant flow and high temperatures, leads to product contamination. The solution involves step-by-step screw removal, inspection, and design analysis—especially addressing issues like small thread radii, improper groove dimensions, and poorly designed mixing elements that cause Moffatt eddies and stagnation. Preventive measures include proper screw design, temperature control during shutdowns, and avoiding deep or narrow grooves that trap resin.

• Understanding The Side Vacuum Exhaust System: What You Need To Know

  This article explains the advantages of side vacuum exhaust systems in plastic extrusion. Unlike traditional top-mounted systems, side vacuum systems prevent material overflow by positioning the vacuum port laterally, improving process stability and reducing maintenance. It also clarifies that a stable negative pressure—not higher vacuum strength—is key to effective degassing. Factors such as temperature control, screw speed, and screw design also significantly impact performance. The side vacuum system is especially suitable for high-volatility materials where reliability is critical.
