Abstract

Abstract A slit extrusion die with a modified entry port which allows extrusion of a low denier tape at high draw down ratios is disclosed. The die has an entry port wherein the depth of the slit is greater at both ends than at the middle by an amount equal to 0.1 to 0.4 times the length of the slit.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim 48 words
A die for overcoming draw resonance in extruded tapes at high melt draw down ratios comprising a slit die having an entry port which is greater in depth (d) at both ends than at the center by an amount equal to 0.1 to 0.4 times said slit's length.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 48 words
A die for overcoming draw resonance in extruded tapes at high melt draw down ratios comprising a slit die having an entry port which is greater in depth (d) at both ends than at the center by an amount equal to 0.1 to 0.4 times said slit's length.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 23 words
The die of claim 1 wherein the depth of the entry port progressively increases from the center of the slit to the ends.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 24 words
The die as claimed in claim 1 wherein said increase in slit depth is accomplished by radiusing both ends of the die entry port.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 20 words
The die as claimed in claim 3 wherein the radius is about 0.2 times the length of the die slit.
