Micro Lab Twin Screw Extruder

This Micro Lab Twin Screw Extruder is designed for medical, university and research center. The overall structure is compact, small and exquisite, and the body is equipped with small wheels, which can be moved flexibly, and can also be placed on the experimental operating table for operation.

The micro lab twin screw extruder is designed for medical, university and research centres.

The micro compounding extruder’ capacity could be from 0g to 5000g/hr, barrel length could be from 16 to 48 to meet various applications of compounding and reaction extrusion. We can optimize the design according to different materials as well as processes to satisfy different requirements.

The micro lab twin screw extruder applies a split type structure with a modular design which is very easy to clean and observe the whole process of polymer in the barrel.

What’s more, it applies fast open plug to connect the civilian electrical instead of industrial electricity.

With movable cartridge, also can be put on the platform laboratory.

Structure and Composition

The equipment shown in the picture is a CHT16 micro laboratory twin-screw extruder. It is mainly composed of three parts: the extruder, auxiliary machines and the electrical control system.

Watch the video to see the CHT16 high torque lab twin screw extrusion line in action, showing the steady operation of the entire process from material extrusion to water cooling and pelletizing.

 

Mini Twin Screw Extruder

The extruder section mainly consists of the main motor, base, coupling, gearbox, volumetric metering feeder, barrels, screws and strand die. The arrangement of the barrel can be customized according to customers’ requirements. Besides the main feeding barrel, there are usually two open barrels, one for atmospheric exhaust and one for vacuum exhaust. In addition, there are vacuum forced exhaust system and soft water circulation system, they are usually installed in integrated electric cabinet so that the equipment can be moved flexibly.
This kind of extruder applies split type structure with modular design which is very easy to clean and observe the whole process of polymer in the barrel. What’s more, it adopts fast open plug, which can be connected to the civilian electricity instead of industrial electricity, enabling it to be adaptable to various environments.

 

Auxiliary machines

The pelletizing method shown in the figure is water-cooling pelletizing. Thus, the auxiliary machines include water trough, air knife and gantry pelletizer. The air knife is equipped with a conveying roller, which can help smooth out the material strips and prevent them from knotting, thus facilitating the subsequent granulation process.

 

Electrical Control System

The electronic control system consists of the control panel and the integrated cabinet. The control methods are divided into button control and PLC control. The one shown in the figure is PLC control, so the control panel uses a touch screen (from Siemens). The bottom of the electrical cabinet is equipped with machine-specific casters (with locking mechanisms), which facilitate movement, fixation and support.
