About
Compounders in the commodity and masterbatch markets typically run medium-to-large batch production sizes, and high production rates are particularly critical for them, which they typically run on a 24/7/365 basis. Learn how a newly developed compounder with the highest free volume at 18 Nm/cm3 torque density of any co-rotating twin screw extruder on the market is suited for these and any other torque- or power-limited applications. Other design features of this machine include ease of maintenance, machine health status tracking and an operational friendly interface. This extruder meets the needs of a fast-paced manufacturing environment where management can observe the OEE (overall equipment effectiveness) at a glance.
