Abstract: An extrusion die is part of a hollow profile extruder. The extrusion die has a die housing. An extrusion annulus is inwardly defined by a mandrel and outwardly defined by a die ring. The mandrel is held and supported by a housing-side mandrel support. The mandrel support is mounted by a tilt joint tiltably relative to the tool ring by two degrees of freedom. Depending on the tilted position of the mandrel support, a distribution of a width of the extrusion annulus can be adjusted. A centering device serves to set the tilted position of the mandrel support. The result is an extrusion die, which ensures manageable adjustment of a wall width of a hollow profile in mass production.

Abstract: A medical fluid container of a flexible plastic material is produced as follows: at first, a plastic compound is produced from a heterogeneous mixture of a first, lower-viscosity raw polymer component having a first melt viscosity and a second, higher-viscosity raw polymer component having a second melt viscosity which is greater than the first melt viscosity. Then the plastic compound is extruded. The extrudate is confectioned. Finally, the confectioned extrudate is sealed to form the finished fluid container. A film tubing may serve as intermediate product for the medical container. The medical container or the film tubing thus produced has surface structures with a typical average size of 15 to 200 ?m. The production method requires little effort while fulfilling demanding requirements with respect to the stability of the produced fluid container.
