Single-point concentricity extrusion tooling

Guill Tool & Engineering has introduced a single-point concentricity extrusion crosshead that uses micro-fine adjustment screws for precise concentricity adjustment. The precision of concentricity reaches 0.008" or finer per revolution. The manufacturer states that this single-point concentricity adjustment is a unique innovation for the extrusion of thin walled jacketing and precision ID/OD tubing. One adjustment bolt controls 360° of adjustment. Features of the single-point crosshead include a patented cam lock deflector for quick changeovers, with a residence time of one minute at 0.5 lb/hr material flow; optimised usage with extruders measuring ½" and ¾"; and a maximum die ID of 0.25". The Guill single-point crosshead also offers flexibility: it not only accepts both vacuum and micro-air accessories, but is also suitable for pressure and sleeving applications. Fluoropolymer designs are available on request. Guill Tool & Engineering Co, Inc www.guill.com
