In most polymer processes, the quality of the final part is greatly dependent on the melting, flow and mixing of the polymer. The optimization of the equipment and manufacturing process, as done today, is time consuming and expensive. It is often necessary to build complex flow visualization equipment, i. e., model extruders with transparent barrels, to qualify the flow during processes.
