If the heaters are on continuously, there is not enough heat being produced from shear.
To increase shear heating, increase the screw rpm and back pressure.
Increasing the back pressure increases shear heating of the material.

No matter how many times you expose TPEs to sufficient heat they will become soft and re-harden when cool.
Once a thermoset material is cured with heat it forms a permanent shape that cannot be reheated and reformed.
