Pellet extrusion is under increasing pressure to reduce energy use and material waste while maintaining consistent pellet quality.

A new research paper introduces a compact screw-based pellet extruder for high content feedstocks, and it could materially shift costs and throughput for polymer, metal and ceramic additive ...

This transparent view of a parallel twin-screw extruder illustrates the structure of the basic hardware that accomplishes compounding and end product extrusion in one step without subjecting the ...

A ZSE-50 mm HSEI twin-screw extruder. Segmented screw elements on high-torque splined shafts. An HSEI process section with modular barrels and screws.An example of a co-rotating, intermeshing HSEI ...

Multiple grades of plastic waste filled with contaminants are fed into extruders in the recycling process. The diaphragm of the pressure transducer may be worn out by these contaminants in just a few ...

Polymer extrusion transforms materials, optimizing properties through real-time Raman spectroscopy and PCA for enhanced ...
