Series 1000 Available for single-layer, co-extrusion and tri-extrusion applications, the blow molding extrusion dies in Guill’s series feature a core diameter between 8.5 inches and 10 inches. The dies adapt to existing extruder layouts and, in most cases, accept existing tooling.
What’s new? Innovations to Model 1025, and its commercial availabiilty, rather than as a custom one-off, due to increasing market demand. It uses material blends appropriate for medical, automotive and specialty packaging applications.
Benefits Flexibility. Dies in the entire series can be designed to suit. Full specifications on size, existing extruder compatibility and accessories such as built-in heater cartridges and external heating bands, are available on request. The dies can be designed to handle multi-layer applications. Both fixed-center and adjustable dies are available, as are built-in cartridge heaters, heated core pins and flow diverters. The various features and options can guarantee concentricity and even heat for better flow; facilitate quick color changes; and prevent cold spots, burning and stagnation, resulting in quick color changes.
