Abstract: A machine for manufacturing thermoplastic polymers including a plurality of coaxial components adjacent to and made integral with one another, the components forming a longitudinal chamber receiving a pair of interacting shafts having portions correspondingly differentiated to provide sections for feeding and premixing the compound, thus forming a single assembly with coaxial components capable for carrying out full processing of the compound from the raw material to extrusion, without discontinuity of sequence.

Abstract: Apparatus and process for shearing to length steel bars coming from a rolling mill in which the rolled product is continuously fed to the first of a plurality of stepped collecting chambers, of a braking/distributing apparatus which brakes and distributes the sheared bars and in phase to the stepped chambers by shearing to length a first bar and introducing the leading end of a second bar, following the first bar, to a second collection chamber; shearing to length said second bar and, by means of the shifting of said collection chambers, discharging said first, braked bar onto conveyor means.

Abstract: The method for maintaining a constant, predetermined contact pressure on elements for cutting under water in granulator machines or applying to the blades of the cutters a force in the opposite direction to a hydrodynamic thrust force, and the apparatus adapted to utilize a control of a constant pressure by actuator means for applying axial thrusts to the drive shaft carriage and the cutters within a slidable bushing and detecting the hydrodynamic thrust force acting on the cutters and regulating the force supplied to the actuators.

Abstract: Device and procedure for the supply, with recovery of the raising energy, of press actuators having a cylinder within which a piston delimits two chambers, namely an upper and a lower chamber, which are supplied with pneumatic power, the said device having a pneumatic control unit connected to the mains and including at least one supply line to the upper chamber of the actuator and one supply line to the lower chamber of the actuator, these lines having supply and discharge valves, in which device the supply lines to the chambers of the actuator pass through an economizer unit interposed between the control unit and the actuator and including a servocontrolled valve which intercepts the supply line to the upper chamber, a servocontrolled valve which intercepts the supply line to the lower chamber, and a connecting pipe between the supply line of the lower chamber and that of the upper chamber, downstream of the said intercepting valves, and provided with its own servocontrolled intercepting valve, while means

Abstract: The plate for extrusion, having discharge holes equipped with fitted inserts, in which the discharge holes each possess a seating having a circular base surface and an outlet opening at the surface of the plate having a substantially elliptical outline, the major axis of the ellipse being equal to the diameter of the base surface, an insert being fitted in the seating which possesses a base surface, facing towards the inside of the plate, having a substantially elliptical outline which can be inscribed, with slight clearance, inside the opening of the seating, and having an opposite surface, facing towards the outside of the plate, having a circular outline with its diameter equal to the minor axis of the base.

Abstract: Device for measuring the temperature of the material contained in a closed apparatus. Including a probe equipped with a sensitive thermocouple element mounted in a protective housing made of an electrically and thermally insulating material in contact with the material to be measured, the element is connected with a preamplification electronic circuit adjacent to it, and having an operational preamplifier connected with a couple of semiconductor switches and an integration circuit which probe is connected to means located at a distance from the apparatus for amplifying and processing the signal and associated with visualization, recording and control members.

Abstract: A closed mixer having rotors whose axial separation is adjustable, comprising an external casing containing a mixing chamber housing two rotors with projecting lobes operating at a limited distance from one another, and caused to rotate by a motor unit via transmission means, wherein the rotors are equipped with end shafts, having a relatively small diameter, rotatably supported within opposite heads of the external casing by means of supports housed within elements which can move and be locked in a number of positions, as a result of moving which elements the distance between the axes of the rotors can be varied, there being provided holding means between the rotors and the heads of the chambers across which they extend, in order to ensure that the axial separation of the rotors is held in the various positions.

Abstract: A rolling stand of the type with tie-rods that, in addition to being suitable to be easily replaced, dismantled and reassembled, it is also capable of being transformed from a two-high stand, having only a pair of parallel and motor-driven rolls, into a universal stand, composed, in addition to the pair of parallel rolls, by a further two vertical idle rolls, opposed to each other, and perpendicular to the previously mentioned cylinders.

Abstract: The invention relates to a rolling stand, in particular with rolls comprising grooves provided with essentially radial repetitive notches for the production of ribbed, threaded and similar bars, stand being provided with a device for angularly adjusting the roll position, which is operable in an immediate and simple manner.

Abstract: A device for replacing the rolls of rolling stands, comprising, on a base, a first carriage provided with at least one pair of seats able to receive a rolling stand, and a pair of carriages which are mobile in a direction normal to the first carriage and support the two stand housings. The first carriage is provided with a roll support which is adjustable and freely removable.

Abstract: This invention relates to a rolling stand of transformable type, i.e. movable between two positions 90.degree. apart, in which the rolls maintain the same rolling axis. The main feature of the rolling stand according to the invention consists in that the stand is connected to a fixed base by a generally triangular hinged connection system with one side of variable length.
