Introduction
Are you a Mechanical Engineering student with a passion for innovation? Read on and discover how you can make a difference at VMI!
At VMI, we use extruders to produce rubber components. One of the critical components of the extruder is the extruder head, where a die is placed to shape the rubber mixture into the desired form. Removing the die from the extruder head is a time-consuming process, as the head must be opened. Our goal is to develop a quick-change mechanism that can remove the die from the front of the head without opening the complete head.
