For smaller quantities (10-20 pounds
per hour), a new 21mm twin-screw extruder by Twin Screw Extruders, Inc. has been
added to the Extrusion Lab and is available for immediate use. Like the 45 mm,
it is equipped with segmented screws that can be quickly reconfigured to meet
your specific needs. Its “clamshell” design makes screw changes and
cleanouts quick and easy, adding to its versatility. It can also be set up with
gravimetric feeders.
