COMPOUNDING
Download this section (728 KB)
Higher torque now on high volume ZSK
The latest ZSK series twin screw compounder from Coperion has improved further on the ZSK MEGAvolume. The ZSK MEGAcompounder machines are co-rotating, closely intermeshing twin screw extruders. The MEGAvolume was introduced as a complementary design with uprated screws giving a higher outer/inner diameter ratio, and therefore a greater volume for applications calling for a high processing volume. The new MEGAvolume PLUS machine retains the high screw volume design, but Coperion has increased the specific torque from 8·7 to 11·3 Nm/cm³, equalling the performance of the MEGAcompounder.
Fine mesh straining increased to 6 tonnes/hour
A new gear extruder from Uth takes the capacity of its roll ex in-line fine mesh straining machines up to 6,000 kg/h. Previously the largest machine could handle 3,500 kg/hr.
High-throughout screening slashes the cost and lead time for compound development
A complete system for producing compound samples and injection moulding test specimens has been developed by Engel to cut out the dead time between the individual steps in the conventional process. It has channelled the concept of 'high-throughput screening' from the pharmaceutical industry and while the production and testing of moulding compounds using its HTS system is limited to 250 variations per day at the most, Engel says this represents 10 to 50 times the capacity of conventional batch compounding with subsequent specimen production and testing.

Wittmann now has its own gravimetric blenders
Wittmann has added gravimetric blenders to its materials handling equipment products through the purchase of a Canadian-built range: Wittmann Canada has bought the M-Tek blending and materials handling product line from Mould-Tek.
Bulk handling equipment also gets rid of dust and lumps
A new Flexicon (Europe) IBC unloading system eliminates the need for a separate conditioner by loosening bulk solid material that has solidified during storage and shipment, allowing it to discharge through a bag spout. Also new from Flexicon and adding a conditioning function to handling is a batch weighing system which eliminates dust and de-lumps agglomerated material before gravimetric feeding into a rigid bin.
