Advantage Of Co-rotating Inter Meshing Screw Extruder And Extrusion Principle

Advantage of Co-rotating inter meshing screw extruder And Extrusion Principle

-both screw and barrels are modular and can be widely adjusted.

-Residence time and shear can be adjusted according to the product

-very narrow residence time distribution

-due to the intermeshing the product is continiously transferred from one screw to the other

-one screw is cleaning the other therefore the machine has a very good self cleanig effect.

-mixing happens in the crosssection and within special mixing elements (kneading blocks etc.)

-due to the co-rotating, the occuring forces balance themselves, high screw speeds are possible

Working Principle:

-good axial mixing

-low feeding efficency and low pressure build up capability

-axial open system

◆ Good product conveying capability. Separate feeders are required. The output rate is independant of the screw speed. Therefore fix speed or variable speed drive is possible.
