If only for the multiplicity of plastics
formulations, makers of the machinery
of plastics manipulation confront chal-
lenges that do not detain some other
equipment makers.
Additionally, the makers of extrusion
machinery must be responsive to safety
and environmental concerns (chief
among them fire-and-smoke resistance
and corrosion resistance) beyond the
requirements of many other specialities.
The demands of fibre optics add another
level of concern.
These multiple responsibilities explain
why extrusion machinery is at once
specific and broad-based. In what other
area of the wire and cable industry does
one encounter a unit that rejoices in
the name Triple-Layer Co-Extrusion &
Dry-Cure Cable Sheath Line?
As it happens, not one word of that is
wasted – at least not on an operator
of extrusion machinery. This is versatile
equipment. But a twin-screw co-rotation extruder must not be put to
the purposes of a twin-screw rotation extruder. If it is, the results will
be disappointing.
