Abstract
The present invention relates to a method and a device for cleaning extrusion heads (10) in the extrusion of thermoplastic plastic materials which are ejected or extruded as tubular preform (12) from an extrusion nozzle (14). For removing interfering deposits and cakings (20) on the discharge nozzle (14), according to the present invention the tubular preform (12) is briefly deflected and upset, wherein the deposits (20) adhering in a proximate region of the discharge nozzle (14) are wiped off from the tubular preform (12) and transported away. Advantageously, the tubular preform (12) is during its deflection itself used as cleaning element, wherein the cleaning takes place automatically during the continuous operation of the continuous extrusion without interrupting the production process.
