Beard formation and product residues at the die outlet often pose a major challenge in the compounding of plastics.
This phenomenon, known as beard formation, occurs with a wide variety of polymer compounds. The FEDDEM Automatic AirBlade (FAA) reliably removes product residues, ensures seamless production and guarantees consistently high product quality.
The FAA is equipped with a powerful 2 kW blower that generates a focused airflow through the slit nozzle.
This airflow is heated to a preset temperature by a 9 kW heating element, enabling it to safely and effectively remove residues at the die exit by precisely blowing them away.
