Cloeren was the pioneer in commercializing feedblock technology.
Our feedblocks allow users to handle a wide range of polymers,
rates and structures without sacrificing performance.
To meet your specific needs for versatility and economics, Cloeren
offers different types of feedblocks - Variable Geometry (VG)
Feedblocks and Fixed Geometry (FG) Feedblocks.
Cloeren dies feature the most advanced technologies. With more
than 25 patents issued, and many more pending, Cloeren is the
acknowledged leader in the industry. We understand the complexities
of polymer processing and consider many details when designing
a die. Important considerations include:
Process and product requirements
Yield requirements, including product width
and thickness
Polymer rheology
Flow rate
Thermal characterization
Our
comprehensive knowledge of visco-elastic fluid flow, supported
by state-of-the-art technologies such as proprietary 3D flow modeling,
Finite Element Analysis and CAD, are employed in the custom design
of your die.
Cloeren provides a wide variety of die options to help optimize
your process, to control gauge uniformity, reduce edge trim and
neck-in, and even create monolithic edges on coextruded products.
A variety of ancillary equipment is available
to complement the Cloeren feedblock and die designs.
