ABSTRACT:
A die clamp assembly for an extruder comprises at least one passage through which product being extruded flows. The die clamp assembly is attached to an extruder and comprises at least one adapter plate that is connectable to the extruder. The die clamp assembly also comprises at least one adapter plate passage that communicates with the passage of the extruder; at least one die body comprising at least one die body passage that communicates with the adapter plate passage; and at least one die plate that comprises at least one die plate passage that communicates with the die body passage and at least one opening so product can be extruded from the at least one opening. A clamp collar assembly connects corresponding peripheral surfaces of the adapter plate to the die body, and comprises a closed position that connects the adapter plate to the die body and an open position that permits separation of the adapter plate and the die body. Further, a pivot assembly pivotally supports the clamp collar assembly for movement in a first direction and a second direction and the die body for movement in the second direction. The die body and the die plate are pivotable away from the adapter plate when the clamp collar assembly has been pivoted to the open position.
