en.Wedoany.com Reported - Guill Tool, a U.S. manufacturer of extrusion dies, has introduced its patent-pending 400 Series extrusion dies, which are compatible with a variety of corrugated tubing equipment. Targeting OEMs as well as automotive and medical applications, the product offers solutions to common issues in polymer extrusion.
The 400 Series features a multi-port spiral flow design that evenly distributes material to the corrugator without weld lines. Eliminating weld lines helps enhance the strength of the finished product, meeting the demands of applications requiring high structural integrity. The series includes four models: 420, 423, 432, and 434. Features include a spiderless in-line design (fixed center or adjustable), integrated heater rods, adjustable gum space, low inventory requirements, scalable multi-layer capability, a heated mandrel, and a one-piece body/deflector construction.
The spiderless design increases airflow space, avoids cold spots, and improves thermal performance. Users can switch from a fixed to an adjustable configuration by modifying just a single component. Integrated heater rods ensure even heat distribution, while the adjustable gum space enhances control over product dimensions. Low inventory requirements prevent material scorching or stagnation, facilitating rapid color changes. The scalable multi-layer capability allows the head to run multiple products, increasing manufacturing flexibility. The heated mandrel provides precise temperature control, and the one-piece body/deflector design simplifies cleaning and enables quick die changes.
With over 60 years of experience, Guill Tool specializes in the design and manufacture of polymer extrusion dies for medical tubing, multi-lumen and multi-layer products, profiles, fiber optics, automotive hoses and tubing, industrial hoses and tubing, pipe, and profile applications. The company also provides extrusion solutions for blow molding, food processing, pelletizing, and wood-plastic composite processing. Its engineers utilize CAD/CAM and process simulation technologies to customize tooling for clients. A rheology and experimental extrusion laboratory enables material and process evaluation, including actual extruder performance testing. Headquartered in Rhode Island, USA, the company designs, engineers, and manufactures its equipment in the United States and delivers globally, while also maintaining a sales office in Europe to serve EU partners.
