pipe extrusion line

In the pipe extrusion line wherein the pipe is in a self supporting but semi-molten state on exiting a die orifice, the inner surface of the extrudate is cooled by a device which applies a suction for establishing flow of a cooling fluid which contacts the inner surface of the extrudate. In a further embodiment the flow of cooling fluid established                for cooling the extrudate additionally cools a cavity within a mandrel of the die orifice.This invention relates to the extrusion of plastic pipe. In one aspect this invention relates to a method of and an apparatus for extruding thermoplastic materials to form pipes or other hollow elongated articles having preselected cross sectional dimensions. In another aspect the present invention relates to improved apparatus and method for cooling the plastic material as it moves through and out of the die.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Extruders commonly convert granular resin feeds into sheets, films and shapes such as pipes. Normally plastic pipe is produced by extruding molten plastic through a pipe shaping die orifice of an extruder. As used herein a pipe shaping die orifice is an elongated annular opening formed between an internal mandrel and a surrounding bushing which is spaced apart from the internal mandrel.

Since the viscosity of the molten plastic is temperature dependent, temperature measurement is an important operational guide to extruder operation. Temperature control schemes generally divide the extruder barrel into temperature control zones, with a temperature control loop including a controller, temperature sensor, heater and an over temperature alarm for each zone. Band-type electrical resistance heaters of two piece construction to facilitate removal are generally employed for directly heating the barrel.

Extruders require large heater ratings to decrease heating time. After extrusion has begun, however, heat is internally generated from friction, and at high production speeds the internal temperature, if uncontrolled, rises above the accepted maximum.

One of the factors which limits the production rate of an article formed by extruding a plastic material through an elongated die orifice is the rate at which heat can be removed from the article as it moves through the die. For an extrudate to be formed so that it is self-supporting when it emerges from the die, the plastic must be cooled below its solidification temperature before exiting the die. In the past this cooling has been accomplished by a variety of ways including, for example, circulating a cooling fluid through the outer portion or bushing of the die as well as through the mandrel. While cooling fluid circulation through the die, and other prior methods have proved effective for extruding relatively small diameter thin wall pipes, the prior art systems lack effectiveness in cooling larger diameter thicker wall pipes. This ineffectiveness in heat transfer from the plastic is due to the increased wall thickness of the large diameter pipe and thus lengthened heat conduction path for heat to escape from the extrudate so that heat is trapped around the mandrel of the die. The excessive temperature results in a condition known as control system temperature override which at least requires a reduction in extrusion speed and hence production rate to satisfy the temperature requirements.

Pipe and Tube Bender $70.1 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles A pipe and tube bender is a machine which bends tube, pipe and solid metals. Pipe bending machines are typically human powered, pneumatic powered, hydraulic assisted, hydraulic motor driven, or electric servo motor. In the pipe bending operation the tube may be supported internally or externally to preserve the cross section of the pipe. In operations where there is flexibility in the shape of the pipe, the pipe does not need to be supported, however there will be some deformation in the cross section of the pipe.Tube bending as a process starts with loading a tube into a pipe bender and clamping it into place between two dies, the clamping block and the forming die.
