One, scorch
1, the phenomenon of scorching
(1) The temperature reflects ultra-high, or the temperature of the control of the instrument fails, causing the plastic ultra-high temperature and scorch.
(2) The rubber exit of the nose has large smoke, strong irritating odors, and buzz.
(3) Particulate scorch appears on the plastic surface.
Wire and Cable
(4) There is a continuous air hole at the glue joint.
 
2, the cause of scorching
(1) Ultra-high temperature control causes plastic scorch.
(2) The screw is used for a long time without cleaning, and the burned material accumulates and is extruded with the plastic.
(3) The heating time is too long. The long-term heating of the plastic accumulation will cause the plastic to deteriorate and scorch.
(4) The parking time is too long, there is no cleaning head and screw, causing the plastic to decompose scorch.
(5) Change the mold or change color several times, causing the plastic to decompose scorch.
(6) The head gland is not compacted, and the plastic decomposes during aging.
(7) The instrument that controls the temperature malfunctions, resulting in scorching after the ultra-high temperature.
3, eliminate the method of scorching
(1) Check if the heating system is normal.
(2) Clean the screw or machine head regularly and thoroughly clean it.
(3) According to the requirements of the heating process, the heating time should not be too long. If there is a problem with the heating system, it should be promptly found by relevant personnel.
(4) Change the mold or color change promptly and cleanly to prevent variegated color or plastic scorching.
(5) After adjusting the mold, the mold cover should be pressed tightly to prevent the glue from entering.
(6) Found scorch should immediately clean the head and screw.
Second, poor plasticization
1, the phenomenon of poor plasticization
(1) There is a fur-like phenomenon on the surface of the plastic layer.
(2) The temperature control is low, the meter pointer reflects the low temperature, and the actual measurement temperature is also low.
(3) The surface of the plastic is black, and there are tiny cracks or small particles that are not plasticized.
(4) The plastic joints are not well stitched and there is a clear mark.
Wire and Cable
2. Causes of poor plasticization

三、
1, the phenomenon of defects
(1) The crucible produced during the plasticization process of the resin has small crystal spots and small particles on the surface of the plastic layer and is distributed around the surface of the plastic layer.
(2) The crucible produced by scorching has a burnt substance on the surface of the plastic layer, which is particularly reflected on the surface of the glue joint.
(3) impurities, there are impurities on the plastic surface, there are impurities in the sliced ​​crucible.
(4) Plastic crucibles resulting from poor plasticization. After slicing, it was found that the crucible was cooked.
2, the cause of defects
(1) Since the temperature control is low, the plastic has not been plasticized and is extruded from the nose.
(2) The plastics are of poor quality and are difficult to plasticize. These are not fully plasticized and are squeezed out.
(3) Some impurities are added to the hopper when charging, causing impurities.
(4) Ultra-high temperature control causes scorching, resulting in scorching.
(5) The molded lid is not compacted, aged and deteriorated after entering the gel, and scorching occurs.
3, the method to eliminate defects
(1) The defects caused by the plastic itself should be raised appropriately.
(2) Check the plastics strictly for impurities during feeding. Do not add other debris to the hopper when adding materials. Clean up the nose immediately after the impurities are found, and run the plastic inside the screw.
(3) It is found that if the temperature is excessively high, the temperature should be reduced appropriately. If the effect is not good, the head and the screw must be cleaned immediately to eliminate the scorch.
(4) Resin crucibles and poorly plasticized crucibles should be used, and the temperature must be increased or the speed of the screw and pulling should be reduced.
 
Fourth, the positive and negative plastic layer
1, the phenomenon of excessive production
(1) The speed of the screw and traction is unstable, and the current meter or voltmeter oscillates sideways, thus affecting the outer diameter of the cable and causing a deviation of the plastic layer.
(2) There is a problem with the quality of semi-finished products, such as loose wrapping of steel tape or plastic tape, uneven unevenness or defects in plastic layers such as wraps, edges, and pits.
(3) The ultra-high temperature control results in a reduction in the amount of extrusion, a sudden decrease in the outer diameter of the cable, and a thinning of the plastic layer to form a negative difference.
2, the cause of the poor
(1) The core or cable core is not round, but also has a serpentine shape, and the outer diameter changes too much.
(2) Semi-manufactured products have quality problems, such as: bad steel joints, loose steel belts, curling of steel belts, loose plastic tapes, excessive joints, scattered flowers, etc.
(3) When the operation is performed, the matching of the cores is too large, which may result in inverted plastics and plastic cores.
(4) When the mold is adjusted, the mold-adjusting screws are not tightened, resulting in a reversed buckle phenomenon that deviates the plastic layer.
(5) The screw or traction speed is unstable, causing an overshoot.
(6) The feeding port or the filter is partly blocked, resulting in a decrease in the amount of glue and a negative difference.
3, the method to exclude the poor
(1) Regularly measure the outer diameter of the cable and check the thickness of the plastic layer, and find that the outer diameter changes or the plastic layer is not uniform and should be adjusted immediately.
(2) The matching mold should be suitable. After adjusting the mold, tighten the mold adjusting screw and press the cover tightly.
(3) Pay attention to the current and voltmeter of the screw and traction and find it unstable.
(4) Do not add the material or other debris into the hopper. If this condition is found, remove it immediately.
 
Fifth, the cable diameter uneven and bamboo shape
1, the phenomenon of uneven thickness and bamboo shape
(1) The uneven diameter of the outer diameter of the cable due to unstable screw or traction.
(2) As the traction suddenly becomes unstable, the plastic forming the cable is bamboo-shaped.
(3) The mold matching is small, and the outer diameter of the semi-finished product changes greatly, resulting in uneven thickness of the plastic layer of the cable.
2. Causes of uneven thickness and bamboo shape
(1) The speed of the retractable line or traction is not uniform.
(2) The outer diameter of the semi-finished product varies greatly, and the mold is not properly selected.
(3) The screw speed is unstable, the main motor rotates unevenly, and the belt is too loose or slipping.
3, the method to exclude uneven thickness and bamboo shape
(1) Check the speed of the screw, traction, and take-up and release line regularly.
(2) The matching of molds should be suitable to prevent the phenomenon of inverted glue.
(3) Regularly check the operation of machinery and electrical appliances, find problems and immediately find fitters and electricians to repair.

Six, poor glue joints
1, bad glue joint phenomenon
(1) On the outside of the surface of the plastic layer, the plastic is not well-merged, there is a trace of hair and severe cracks.
(2) The plastic layer of the plastic layer is not well plasticized, and there are tiny particles that smash, and when it is severe, it is torn open by hand.
(3) The controlled temperature is low, especially the control temperature of the head is low.
2. Reasons for bad glue joints
(1) Low control temperature and poor plasticization.
(2) The head is used for a long time, causing serious wear and tear.
(3) The temperature control of the head failed, resulting in low temperature, making the plastic lamination glue not good.
3, eliminate the bad method of glue seam
(1) Appropriately increase the control temperature, especially the control temperature of the head.
(2) The outside of the nose is insulated by heat preservation devices.
(3) Add two layers of filters to increase the pressure and increase the degree of plasticization of the plastic.
(4) Properly reduce the speed of helicoidal traction and prolong the plastic plastification time to achieve the purpose of plastic splicing.
