Researching screen changers for a 2.5" pvc extrusion line. Our experience in the past with manual changers has not been very good because of leakage and interrupting the process. Does anyone have posative or negative feedback for a continuos screen changer brand?

These guys are worth a look.

Only negative I've heard are sealing with some crystalline polymers and screen roll cost.
