Abstract: A coextrusion adapter, including a central conduit having an inlet end and an outlet end and having bottom and top walls that define the height of the central conduit and side walls that define the width of the central conduit, as well as at least one coextrusion conduit having an inlet end and an outlet end. The outlet end feeds into the central conduit near or in the vicinity of the bottom and/or top wall thereof, downstream of the inlet end of the central conduit, and adjusting devices are provided, which are allocated to each outlet end of the at least one coextrusion conduit and are composed of a plurality of adjusting elements, which collectively extend across the width of the outlet end and by actuating drives, are adjustable independently of one another so that it is possible to change the inner width of the respective width section of the outlet end.

Abstract: A device for producing multi-layer composites made of thermoplastic materials, including a coextrusion adapter through which the thermoplastic materials can flow. The adapter has an inlet opening and an outlet opening, in which the thermoplastic materials are combined in layers. The coextrusion adapter has a modular design including a plurality of housings stacked on top of each other in a modular manner, each having a central channel arranged in the housing and at least one coextrusion channel opening into the respective central channel. The central channels of the housings stacked on top of each other continue one another, and the thermoplastic materials can flow through the central channel and the coextrusion channels in the direction of the outlet opening.

Abstract: To simplify the cleaning and maintenance of a meltblowing head, the lips defining with the spinneret the flowing slits adjusting the row of orifices can be swung away from the spinneret on respective lip guides pivotally connected to respective setback bars. The setback bars can be adjusted and locked in place with respect to the blowing housing and the lips can be adjusted and locked in place relative to the lip guides independently of the swinging action.
