Compact CHP extruder Davis-Standard has introduced a new compact extruder engineered for extru- sion coating applications.

The CHP is available in sizes ranging from 52 to 100mm, providing efficient mixing that delivers low pressure and melt temperature variability, and output rates claimed to be up to 80 to 100 per cent higher than current extruder options. The reduced residence time of 3:1 with a faster purge between resins and colours supports quick changeovers, minimis- ing raw material loss. Davis-Standard has a CHP extruder at its laboratory fa- cility in Pawcatuck, Connecticut, USA, for customers to run trials and vali- date processing opportunities prior to purchase. Davis-Standard, LLC www.davis-standard.com Fil-Tec, Inc Fil-Tec, Inc offers a complete line of performance yarns for applications in power cables, copper and fibre optic telecom and speciality cables. Products on display at wire 2022 will include binder yarns with water-blocking, non-wicking, flame-retardant/low-smoke finishes; core yarns; rip cords; filler yarns; marker yarns; and fibreglass reinforcement yarns.

“This design addresses profitability factors such as reduced raw material loss, improved outputs and greater application development,” said Danis Roy, Davis- Standard vice president – sales films and flexible packaging. “The CHP is built for exceptional per- formance with improved transition times and significantly higher processing rates than conventional extruders. We’re excited about the results we’ll see in the field.”

The CHP’s design offers a smaller footprint and lighter weight to allow for easier addition to an existing carriage or platform structure. This provides processors with a space- saving replacement or co-extrusion addition for increasing output and line speed.
