DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a method for controlling an extruder, and more particularly to a method for manufacturing a thermoplastic polymer sheet having a uniform thickness by controlling the rotational speed of a screw in an extruder.

Generally, thermoplastic polymer sheets are manufactured by extruding a thermoplastic polymer in a molten state, casting it onto the surface of a casting drum that is being forcedly cooled, solidifying it by cooling, and then peeling it off from the casting drum.

Conventionally, the method of correcting this thickness unevenness is to detect the thickness of the cast thermoplastic polymer sheet using a thickness gauge, calculate the pressure setting signal from the deviation between the actual thickness value and the target value, and This pressure setting signal and the discharge pressure signal obtained by detecting the discharge pressure of the extruder are input to the pressure controller, a reference rotation speed setting signal is calculated from the deviation, and this signal is input to the speed control device. There is a known method for controlling the rotational speed of an extruder screw (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 49-23858).
. If the rotation speed of the screw is controlled to be kept constant, the discharge pressure will fluctuate greatly, causing thickness unevenness in a relatively small range (small period fluctuation).

Furthermore, when the discharge pressure is kept constant, the rotational speed of the screw fluctuates greatly, but thickness unevenness does not occur within a relatively small range. On the other hand, large period fluctuations occur (large period fluctuations). The above control method detects both discharge pressure and thickness and performs cascade control from these.
Small period fluctuations and large period fluctuations are eliminated, and a thermoplastic polymer sheet having a substantially uniform thickness can be obtained.

The control method of the present invention calculates the discharge amount from the thickness measured with a thickness gauge, calculates a reference rotation speed setting signal from the deviation between this discharge amount and a target value, and adjusts the discharge pressure measured by a pressure detector. A correction rotation speed setting signal is calculated by inputting the correction rotation speed setting signal into a meter, and the rotation speed of the screw is controlled by a signal obtained by adding this correction rotation speed setting signal and the reference rotation speed setting signal.

A screw (not shown) of an extruder 11 is rotated by the motor 10. As the screw rotates, the thermoplastic polymer is discharged in a molten state and sent to the filter 12. The thermoplastic polymer that has passed through the filter 12 is cast from a molding die 13 onto a casting drum 14. Since this casting drum 14 is forcedly cooled, the cast thermoplastic polymer solidifies into a sheet. The thermoplastic polymer sheet sent by the casting drum 14 is peeled off by a peeling roller 15 and wound up in a subsequent process. A thickness gage 16 is disposed behind the peeling roller 15, and the thickness is sampled in the lateral direction and its integral value is measured.

The rotation speed of the casting drum 14 is measured by a speed meter 17. The thickness signals (integral values) from these thickness gauges and the rotational speed signal from the speedometer 17 are sent to the calculation device 1.
The signal is sent to a multiplication circuit No. 8 and multiplied to calculate a discharge amount signal. Note that instead of the discharge amount, only the thickness signal can be input to the calculation device 18 to perform the calculation described later. In the calculation device 18, the discharge amount signal obtained from the thickness signal and the rotation speed signal is compared with the target value of the discharge amount, and a reference rotation speed setting signal is calculated from the deviation.

On the other hand, the discharge pressure of the extruder 10 is measured by a pressure detector 19, and its signal is sent to a pressure regulator 20.

Of these signals, the standard rotational speed setting signal accounts for about 90% of the total, and the remaining 10% is the correction rotational speed setting signal. The rotation speed of the motor 11 is controlled by this added rotation speed signal.

Further, the rotational speed of the motor 11 is detected by a speedometer 21 and sent to a speed control device 21, which automatically controls the rotational speed of the motor 11. Therefore, in the present invention, a corrected rotation speed setting signal obtained by converting the amount of variation in discharge pressure into a rotation speed signal is added to a reference rotation speed setting signal calculated from a discharge amount signal necessary to obtain a predetermined thickness. The rotation speed of the extruder is controlled by

Therefore, fluctuations in the discharge pressure are reduced by the corrected rotational speed setting signal, and fluctuations in the discharge amount are reduced by the reference rotational speed setting signal. Therefore, the former eliminates small-period fluctuations, and the latter eliminates large-period fluctuations, and a thermoplastic polymer sheet without uneven thickness can be obtained. According to the present invention having the above configuration, since cascade control is not performed, the response is quick, and even if fluctuations occur, they can be attenuated quickly, and stable and reliable control can be performed.
