Co-rotating twin-screw extruder

ICMA manufacturing range is inclusive of standard twin-screw corotating extruders and high-torque version to cover a very wide range of plastic compounded products. The extruders, entirely designed and manufactured by ICMA, are supplied with modular structure gear-boxes adaptable to the working conditions of the various versions (low-speed, high-speed, high-torque and high-volume). TECHNICAL FEATURES OF THE EXTRUDERS - Modular design for screw and barrel - Built-in water circuit for barrel cooling - Intermeshing screw geometry - Energy-saving heating system - Updated electronic control devices PERFORMANCE - Highly flexible modular system - Energy saving, low specific-energy consumption - High intake capacity of feed screws - Fast recipe or colour change due to self-wiping geometry - High plasticisation capacity - Calibrated control of melt temperature - High homogenising/distributive extrusion capacity - High dispersive extrusion capacity - Fine-tuning of residence time-shear/elongation stresses parameters balance - High venting efficiency due to the large surfaces and to the system’s modularity Wear-resistant steel and removable liners can be applied according to the type of process.
