Abstract: A device for producing blown films, including an extrusion device generating a tubular film and a flattening device, associated with the tubular film, having two flattening elements, arranged on diametrically opposite zones of the tubular film and adjustable in relation to each other at an acute angle, for transforming a cross-section of the tubular film, which is first circular, then oval, to a double-layer film web. This invention has lateral guide elements for the areas of the tubular film that are not affected by the flattening elements and are arranged between the flattening elements and are associated with the tubular film and the lateral guide elements have an adjustable contour.

The device further includes a pair of draw-off rolls, mounted downstream of the flattening device, for drawing off the film web. This invention has guide blades that are interposed between the flattening elements and enclose the edge fold which is formed when the tubular film is flattened.

Abstract: A guide element for a tubular film which is produced by blown film extrusion. The guide element includes a support structure having guides secured to the support structure and acting upon the circumference of the tubular film. The support structure includes a plurality of support limbs that are articulated to each other and that are received so as to be adjustable relative to each other by adjusting drives. At least one guide for the tubular film is secured to each support limb.
