5. Functional coupling of screw and cylinder in the single-screw extruder

The optimal operation of any type of extrusion screw occurs when the screw is combined with a cylinder having special innovative characteristics adapted to those of the screw.

The new design and construction concept works optimally by adopting the solutions associated with energy-saving extrusion and the adaptive temperature control system. It allows an increase in productivity of around 15% compared to an extruder of the same size designed according to traditional concepts.

The functional coupling between screw and cylinder can be carried out in various ways, depending on the type of material to be extruded.

The cylinder designed with special features is able to provide advantages in terms of productivity, even in combination with a traditional screw.
