1 Troubleshooting Single-Screw Extrusion Top 10 List Mark A. Spalding The Dow Chemical Company, Midland, MI Gregory A. Campbell Castle Research, Jonesport, ME
2 Goals Provide a list of practices and skills that every single-screw extrusion engineer should know.
3 Top Ten List
4 Discha 1. Know how to calculate the expected rate for a single-screw extruder. Calculation of the rotational and pressure flows in the metering channel. The metering channel controls the rate. Calculation routines are available from SPE or you can Cross-sectional easily view of the extrudate construct a spreadsheet. Estimate the pressure profile. Hopper Meter Campbell, G.A. and Spalding, M.A., Analyzing and Troubleshooting Single-Screw Extruders, Hanser Publications, Munich, 2013.
5 Pressure, MPa 1. Know how to calculate the expected rate for a single-screw extruder Solids Conveying Melting Proper operation Axial Position, diameters Metering Improper operation 771 kg/h 544 kg/h 152 mm diameter extruder 100 rpm screw speed
6 2. Channels that are designed to operate full must be pressurized. Channels that are only partially filled operate at zero pressure. Partially filled channels create stagnation zones. Stagnation zones will cause some resin to degrade. Degradation products will eventually contaminate the final product.
7 2. Channels that are designed to operate full must be pressurized. Flight Tips Stagnant and Degraded Resin Film Sample Resin Flow Region Flow Direction Hyun, K.S., Spalding, M.A., and Powers, J., "Elimination of a Restriction at the Entrance of Barrier Flighted Extruder Screw Sections," SPE-ANTEC Tech. Papers, 41, 293 (1995).
8 3. The flight radii should be between 0.5 and 2.5 times the channel depth. Small flight radii create a stagnant region between the flight edge and the screw root. The stagnant region will cause the resin to degrade and result in degradation products in the final product. Degradation Barrel Interface Screw Root
9 3. The flight radii should be between 0.5 and 2.5 times the channel depth. The degradation at the flight Moffat radii were eddy caused Enlarged by low flow or stagnant regions due to Moffat eddies. Aspect ratio=2, Top wall moving 0.2 y 0.1 y x x
10 3. The flight radii should be between 0.5 and 2.5 times the channel depth. Flight radii design. R 2 R 1 H Injection Molded Part 0.5 < R < 2.5 H Mitigates Moffat Eddies
11 4. Melting of the resin is the primary method for mixing. The best mixing occurs in the melt film between the solid bed and the barrel wall. The shear stress is very high in the melt film. A secondary mixing section is generally needed for most applications. Melt pool Melt film Barrel side Screw side Solid bed
12 4. Melting of the resin is the primary method for mixing. 100 parts white ABS to 1 part black ABS. Single-flighted screw. Benkreira, H., Shales, R.W., and Edwards, M.F., Mixing on Melting in Single-Screw Extrusion, Int. Polym. Process., 7, 126 (1992). Campbell, G.A. and Spalding, M.A., Analyzing and Troubleshooting Single-Screw Extruders, Hanser Publications, Munich, 2013.
13 5. All screws will discharge solid resin if the screw is rotated fast enough. As a screw is rotated faster, a speed will be reached where solid resin is discharged with the extrudate. Solids in the extrudate can look like a poorly mixed system. A secondary mixer or a solids trap is needed for most applications.
14 5. All screws will discharge solid resin if the screw is rotated fast enough. Hopper Cross-sectional view of the extrudate Extrude mixture with 99 parts white pellets with 1 part black pellets. Discharge View extrudate sections.
15 5. All screws will discharge solid resin if the screw is rotated fast enough. In Flute Wiper Flight a) axial mixer Flow Mixing Flight Mixing Flight Out Flute Mixing Flight Clearance, (u + ) Wiper Flight Flow Maddock-style mixers are excellent secondary mixers for trapping and dispersing solid polymer fragments. b) mixer cross section
16 6. High-performance screws use specially designed channels to trap and melt solids. High-performance screws can operate at higher screw speeds, higher rates, and lower discharge temperatures as compared to a conventional screw with a mixer. High-performance screws have deeper metering channels. Several different types of high-performance screws are available.
17 6. High-performance screws use specially designed channels to trap and melt solids. Common commercially available high-performance screws that employ this technology include: Wave screws. Energy Transfer (ET) screws. Fusion screws. DM2 screws. Campbell, G.A. and Spalding, M.A., Analyzing and Troubleshooting Single-Screw Extruders, Hanser Publications, Munich, 2013.
18 6. High-performance screws use specially designed channels to trap and melt solids. The Energy Transfer (ET) screw is constructed by positioning an ET section in the metering section of a conventional screw. Feed Transition ET Section
19 6. High-performance screws use specially designed channels to trap and melt solids. Flow Flight Undercuts B B B B A B A A A A a) ET Section Channel Peaks b) Channel Cross Section Barrel Screw V bx V bz
20 6. High-performance screws use specially designed channels to trap and melt solids. ET Screw 30 rpm 33 kg/h 60 rpm 62 kg/h 90 rpm 85 kg/h 120 rpm 110 kg/h 150 rpm 135 kg/h Conventional Screw
21 7. Injection molding screws use the same design principles as screws for extruders. All channels must operate full and under pressure. Operational rate is calculated using the mass of the parts and runner system, the plasticating time, and the screw speed. Rotational and pressure flow rates are calculated just like the procedure for extruders.
22 8. Flow surging is most often caused by a temperature control problem in the feed section. Proper solids conveying occurs with specific temperatures at the barrel wall and screw surfaces. Forwarding forces at the barrel wall must be maximized and the retarding forces at the screw must be minimized. Forces depend on temperature. Other root causes downstream of solids conveying are known to cause flow surging.
23 Pressure, MPa Motor Current, A 8. Flow surging is most often caused by a temperature control problem in the feed section Current P1 Current P mm diameter extruder. 10 Extruder Discharge 600 HIPS resin 5 Pump Inlet P Two-stage screw Time, minutes
24 Motor Current, A Screw Speed, rpm 8. Flow surging is most often caused by a temperature control problem in the feed section Motor Current Cooling On Cooling Off Cooling On Instability was caused by a high temperature at the screw surface. 200 Screw Speed Time, minutes 80
25 9. The first-stage metering section of a two-stage screw must control the rate. Two-stage extruders typically operate at a rate that is 1.1 to 1.3 times the rotational flow rate of the first-stage meter. A negative pressure profile exists in the first-stage meter. Vent flow will occur if the second stage limits rate. Vent flow can also occur if the vent diverter is not designed properly.
26 Pressure, MPa 9. The first-stage metering section of a two-stage screw must control the rate. 16 Vent Opening 12 8 Proper operation, no vent flow Axial Position, diameters
27 Pressure, MPa 9. The first-stage metering section of a two-stage screw must control the rate. 16 Vent Opening Proper operation, no vent flow. Vent Flow Axial Position, diameters
28 9. The first-stage metering section of a two-stage screw must control the rate. A vent diverter is positioned in the vent opening to tuck molten resin back into the screw channel. If the diverter is not installed, installed improperly, or not designed properly, then flow of resin out the vent opening is likely.
29 9. The first-stage metering section of a two-stage screw must control the rate. Vent diverter Recessed area a) b) This edge is flush with the inside barrel wall
30 9. The first-stage metering section of a two-stage screw must control the rate. Vent diverter Barrel Vent Opening Screw Vent Diverter
31 10. The first time a screw is installed into an extruder, both the screw and barrel should be at room temperature. If the screw has the correct outside diameter and it is not bent, then it should slide easily into the barrel. Never force a screw into a barrel. Never install for the first time a cold screw into a hot barrel the hot barrel is oversize (thermal expansion) the screw may slide in easily, but could expand to bind with the barrel.
32 Summary A list of ten top practices and skills were presented. Single-screw extrusion engineers should be aware of these practices and skills. Campbell, G.A. and Spalding, M.A., Analyzing and Troubleshooting Single- Screw Extruders, Hanser Publications, Munich, 2013.
