Motor-driven actuator for automatic adjustment of the lip gap of flat-dies.
A. Precise control with < 0.3 μm step accuracy with position monitoring.
B. Simultaneous bolt control for quick lip adjustment.
C. Bolt spacing of 25 mm can be realized.
D. Large upper lip adjustment range of up to 2.3 mm
E. 80% lower energy consumption than thermal expansion bolts.
F. Recipe management for fast product changeovers.
G. Increased line efficiency through reduction of set-up and start-up times.
H. High flexibility, operating safety and productivity
MCAD is extrusion die conversion kits for extrusion die OEM’s and end users with existing manual dies
Applications include:
Flat Extrusion Dies for Film and Sheet (PP, PE, PET, PVC, PS, HIPS, ABS etc..)
Extrusion Coating & Lamination Dies BOPP and BOPET Dies
Cast Film Dies
With the automatic system MCAD, the lip can be moved with its entire flexible range. The thickness profile control continues to be done with the thermal bolt. The lip gap can also be adjusted according to the film thickness and quality during production or adjusted during production change without having to turn off the extrusion line.
