Abstract

In a method for producing sheet film of thermo plastic material the cumulative effect of straight line gauge variation, due usually to small defects in the extrusion die lips, on the appearance of a roll of the film is overcome by introducing a controlled gauge variation over the film in such a manner as to avoid the magnification <PICT:0934773/IV(a)/1> effect. In the apparatus illustrated molten film 5 is discharged downwardly from die lips 3, 4 between hollow chill roll 11, cooled by refrigerated liquid entering hollow shaft 11a and leaving hollow shaft 11b, and water roll 12 in trough 21 provided with weir 22 and overflow cup 23 having discharge connection 24. Nozzle 34 directs a stream of water downwardly against sheet 5 at a pressure of from 1/2 to 10 p.s.i. To produce a gauge variation greater than the average gauge the stream is at least 3 DEG C. below the water bath temperature and is directed 1/4 inch above the water bath level. For a smaller gauge variation the stream is at least 3 DEG C. above the water bath temperature and is directed 1/4 inch below the water bath level. Nozzle 34 is reciprocated by motor 39 driving block 33 reversibly on rods 37, 38 thus generating a sine-wave gauge variation which masks any straight-line gauge variation. Specification 914,100 is referred to.
