NEW: parallel twin-screw extruder by Three-Tec GmbH

APPLICATION

Multifunction extrusion of smallest quantities up to production scale in laboratory, test and production applications. Results can be easily scaled up to or scaled down from a commercial size extruder according to customers wishes and actual extruder. This Extruder is used for complex extrusion tasks under difficult conditions such as very high pressure, high torque and step temperature profile

DESIGN

The parallel Twin-Screw Extruders are fitted with easily replaceable barrels and screws that can be configured according to your needs. Various screw segments can be combined to convey, reverse convey, knead and mix the extrudate. The compact and lightweight tabletop design allows using the extruder in different locations or in glove boxes. The temperature of each heating-zone can be controlled separately and is recorded with the torque of the motor by the control system. Records can be transferred to USB or via Ethernet.

CONTROLLER

The Extruder is controlled by Siemens hard- and software. The operating of the machine happens via Siemens HMI Comfort Panel. Central control systems for multiple extrusion or multi-component operations are available. A variety of protocols is available for connection to the plants host system. Simpler models without Siemens HMI and basic PID controller for the heating zones are available.
