A compounding extruder connected to the impregnation die functions as a melt pump feeding molten thermoplastic polymer into the process.
Instead of simply coating fiber tows with polymer – inside PlastiComp’s impregnation die individual filaments in the fiber tows are spread apart so each is encapsulated with thermoplastic polymer.
This fiber to polymer bond is key to obtaining optimum performance and having a true composite material.
