Hi new here in this forum it's great to have these source of knowledge and friendship
The problem that I have is that a screw tip broke right off the screw on one of my Engel machines we took it apart we inspect the screw tip and we find out that it's a for flute screw tip and angle only have 3 flute screw tips apparently these screwtape was custom-made for the previews owner of the machine now the question is if I put a regular three flute screw tip in the screw is this going to affect my processes for all of the molds that we running on this machine? is it going to be a big change on my outputs screw recovery, Cushing Etc?

A regular screw tip works great with ABS. Just change it.
