Single-Screw Extruders reduce product waste and spillage.
Single-screw thermoplastic extruders incorporate Easy Close Hopper Slide to stop flow of materials to extruder screw during set-up, changeover, or shut-down. This ensures that pellets will not flow outside of machine, resulting in cleaner plant, less waste, and safer environment. Positioned between feed throat of extruder and hopper, slide employs auxiliary material channel that directs excess...

Twin Lever Gate facilitates die changing.
Able to be fitted on any size extruder, quick-change twin lever gate features 2 clamshell halves mounted on levers. When opened, levers move clamshell halves out from under barrel so resin being purged out of barrel does not collect in clamshells. Clamshells are self-centering when drawn together for positive seal, and both sides of gate are electrically heated for process stability and minimized...

Extrusion Die suits shear sensitive/low viscosity materials.
Design of Multiflow(TM) Cascade Extrusion Die provides identical shear history for all material processed, regardless of position across die. Distribution of material is accomplished by directing rather than restricting flow at various locations in die. Dies can be produced for strand, strip, round, or flat applications. They are also available for color striping or co-extrusion applications.
