Advantages and applications of twin-screw extruder

Advantage：

1. Intuitively understand the wear of wearing parts

Due to the convenience of opening, the degree of wear of the threaded element barrel lining can be found at any time, so that effective maintenance or replacement can be carried out. It will not be found when there is a problem with the extrusion product, causing unnecessary waste,

2. Reduce production costs

When making masterbatches, it is often necessary to change the color, if it is necessary to change the product, the open processing area can be opened in a few minutes, and the mixing process can also be analyzed by observing the melt profile on the entire screw. At present, when the ordinary twin-screw extruder changes the color, it needs to use a large number of cleaning materials for cleaning, which is time consuming, electricity wasting, and waste raw materials. The split twin screw extruder can solve this problem, when changing the color, it takes only a few minutes to quickly open the boot cylinder, manual cleaning, so that you can use no or less cleaning materials, saving costs.

3. Improve labor efficiency

When the equipment is repaired, the ordinary twin-screw extruder often has to remove the heating and cooling system first, and then withdraw the screw as a whole. The split twin screw is not needed, just loosen a few bolts, turn the worm gear box handle device to lift the upper half of the cylinder can open the whole cylinder, and then maintenance. This not only shortens the maintenance time, but also reduces the labor intensity.

4.High torque, high speed

At present, the development trend of twin-screw extruders in the world is to develop in the direction of high torque, high speed and low energy consumption, and the effect of high speed is high productivity. Split twin screw extruder belongs to this category, its speed can be up to 500 RPM. Therefore, it has a unique advantage in processing high-viscosity and heat-sensitive materials.

5.A wide range of applications

Wide range of applications, can be applied to a variety of materials processing.

6. High output, high quality, high efficiency

With other advantages of ordinary twin-screw extruder, it can achieve high output, high quality and high efficiency.

Apply：

1. Production of plastic products: twin-screw extruder is suitable for manufacturing various plastic products, such as plastic pipes, plastic sheets, plastic films, etc. It can produce plastic products of different specifications and shapes to meet market demand by adjusting the operating parameters of the extruder.

2. Plastic modification processing: the twin-screw extruder can mix and melt the modifier and plastic raw materials, so that the modifier is evenly dispersed in the plastic and improves the performance of the plastic. This modification method is suitable for many plastics, such as polymers, engineering plastics, etc., which can improve the mechanical properties, heat resistance, corrosion resistance and other characteristics of plastics.

3. Rubber processing: Twin screw extruder can also be used for rubber processing. Rubber is a highly elastic material that usually needs to be heated and extruded to form the desired shape. The twin-screw extruder can efficiently melt the rubber material column and extrude it into the required rubber products through the mold, such as rubber tubes and rubber sheets.

4. Food processing: Twin screw extruders also have important applications in the food processing industry. It can be used to make various shapes of food, such as noodles, cookies, candy and so on. The twin screw extruder can melt the food raw materials and extrude them into the desired shape through the mold, which has the characteristics of high efficiency and fast, and is suitable for large-scale food production.

5. Medical device manufacturing: Twin screw extruders are also widely used in the field of medical device manufacturing. It can be used to make medical pipes, syringes, infusion sets and other medical instruments. Twin-screw extruders can produce high-quality medical device products with high precision and high controllability to meet the requirements of the medical industry for product quality and safety.

With the continuous progress of technology, twin-screw extruders will play an important role in more fields, bringing more possibilities to all walks of life.
