TRANSMISSION EFFICIENCY OF PLASTIC FILMS<br />
Slit-dies for flat film are wide in comparison with the diameter <strong>of</strong> the extruder head<br />
and this means that the flow path to the extreme edges <strong>of</strong> the die is longer than to<br />
the centre. Flow compensation is usually obtained by a manifold die a cross-section<br />
<strong>of</strong> which is shown in Figure.<br />
