About the Webinar
Screens are used for filtration, but also raise pressure in the last zone of the extruder and thus affect the process. Pressure is good for mixing but bad for temperature development. In this hour, we will discuss the materials and sizes of screens, how they are placed in the flow path, screen-changing procedure and equipment, and continuous screening. We will also note cases where screens are not used at all, often with good reason.
Mr. Griff will present for the first 45 minutes of the webinar, which will include a break for questions. At the conclusion of his presentation, we will host 15 minutes of questions and answers. All slides, questions and answers will be emailed to you one week after this event.
