AI Technical Summary
Existing plastic extruders have problems with uneven color and poor plasticization when producing colored products. This is mainly due to insufficient mixing of the masterbatch in the extruder, which results in uneven color on the product surface or residual masterbatch particles that have not dissolved.
A single-screw structure for mixing in a plastic extruder is adopted. A mixing section is set at the rear of the screw body. The mixing section consists of mixing teeth arranged in a spiral shape. Mixing external teeth are fixed at the tail of the screw. A positioning ring is installed at the tail of the barrel. Mixing internal teeth are set in the inner hole of the positioning ring. The mixing external teeth and internal teeth are axially offset to achieve full mixing of the molten plastic at the positioning ring.
It achieves thorough mixing and dispersion of color masterbatch and raw materials, solving the problems of uneven color and poor plasticization, and ensuring uniform color on the product surface.
