EXTRUDERS

Available in a range of sizes up to 8 inches in diameter. All are equipped with bi-metallic lined barrels, high capacity thrust bearings, and high capacity gear boxes.

Heating and cooling systems are available in many combinations assuring the best processing conditions to fit the customer's application. Control system options from discrete simple to operate and maintain, up to the most sophisticated process control systems, utilizing state-of-the-art PC controls.

Film Dies are precision machined and manufactured from high quality steel. Multiple-zone heating and flexible-lip adjustment make operation simple.

Dies are machined to accept internal cartridge heaters that are divided into separately controlled heat zones.

Options include deckles, profiled lips, automatic lip adjustment from thickness gage signal, and restrictor bar designs.

Gear Pumps can be added, if necessary, down-stream of the Extruder to allow for linear output based on line speeds. These pumps also provide constant flow to the die, which eliminates variations caused by screen filter build-up or other pressure changes within the Extruder.
Available for extruders from fractional up to 8 inches.

WATER QUENCH TANK

Manufactured from non-corrosive materials, in a heavy structural frame, J J Jenkins, Incorporated has designed-in features to insure stable, turbulence-free operation.

A combination of 300 Series stainless steel and brass is used for all wetted components. A heavy duty, painted framework supports all components rigidly to insure that vibrations are not transmitted into the Quench water. Full-width water distribution and over-flows placed at the hottest areas of the tank allows for more efficient use of water and also a minimum of temperature variation.

All tanks feature V-groove casters and gear-driven floor jacks to locate the tank.
Quench Tanks are available in widths up to 96 inches and options include motorized vertical lift, motorized horizontal movement, heating, cooling, or closed loop systems.
