Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of extruders, in particular to an extruder with a vacuum waste removal device. Background Art

[0002] An extruder is a type of processing equipment used for the continuous production of plastic products, widely used in the plastics processing industry. It transforms raw plastic into various shapes through a process of heating, melting, extrusion, and cooling. During the extrusion process, the material may contain air, moisture, and other volatile components. If not removed promptly, these can form bubbles or holes in the final product, affecting its mechanical properties and appearance. A vacuum degassing device can effectively remove these gases and volatiles, ensuring the quality of the finished product.

[0003] There are some designs in the prior art for extruders with vacuum waste removal devices. However, the existing vacuum waste removal devices usually provide a special-shaped piston at the bottom of the guide column to achieve a mating connection with the screw in the barrel. This combined vacuum guide column is difficult to disassemble, which is not conducive to regular maintenance and cleaning of the vacuum waste removal device. In addition, the existing vacuum guide column is usually only equipped with an O-ring or oil seal for sealing. When the guide column moves up and down to clean the material, it is easy to cause displacement and leakage. Utility Model Content
