Flow balancing in extrusion dies for thermoplastic profiles Part II: Influence of the design strategy

To achieve a specified geometry for an extruded profile with minimal level of stress gradient induced by pulling, flow balancing of the die is required. To fulfil this requisite, a set of operating conditions and polymer rheological properties is considered during the design step. However fluctuatio...
