The 150mm16D/20D Cold Feed Rubber Extruder has multiple heating zones that regulate the temperature of the rubber during processing. Ensuring that the heating system is calibrated correctly is vital for preventing overheating or insufficient heating of the rubber. Overheating can lead to degradation of the rubber, while insufficient heating may result in poor flowability and inconsistent extrusion.

It's essential to regularly monitor the temperature settings to ensure they fall within the recommended range for the specific rubber compound being used. If there are temperature fluctuations, they could indicate problems with the heating system, such as faulty temperature controllers or heating elements.

To prolong the lifespan of the extruder and maintain its performance, regular maintenance is essential. Cleaning the machine after each use helps prevent the accumulation of rubber residues that can clog the feed hopper or extruder screw. For cleaning, follow the manufacturer's instructions carefully, using appropriate solvents and tools.

The machine's screw and barrel should be inspected for wear and tear periodically. Over time, the screw may become worn, leading to inefficient extrusion or even machine failure. If wear is evident, the screw should be replaced or refurbished. The die and other parts that come into direct contact with the rubber should also be cleaned regularly to maintain the quality of the products produced.

In addition to cleaning, check lubrication systems. These ensure that the moving parts of the extruder operate smoothly and without friction. Insufficient lubrication can lead to premature wear and increased energy consumption.

Safety is a priority when operating any industrial machinery, including the 150mm16D/20D Cold Feed Rubber Extruder. Ensure all operators are trained on the safe handling of the machine and are familiar with emergency procedures in case of malfunctions.

The extruder has several moving parts, including the screw and rollers. Always keep hands and other body parts away from these moving components to prevent injury. Additionally, ensure that the machine's safety guards and emergency shut-off switches are functional before operation. Regularly inspect the machine for any loose bolts, exposed wiring, or damaged parts that could pose a safety risk.

Never operate the extruder without the proper protective equipment, such as gloves, goggles, and hearing protection. The rubber extrusion process generates heat and noise, both of which can be hazardous without proper precautions.

The system adopts forced circulation of media, and controls the temperature of each section independently in six units. Each unit is composed of a water pump, an electric heater, a temperature control instrument, a cooling water on-off solenoid valve, an automatic exhaust valve, a platinum thermal resistance, and an electrical contact pressure.
