Why Choose Twin Screw Extrusion? #
Twin screw extruders, as defined by industry standards, feature two parallel screw propellers—one right-handed and one left-handed. Compared to single-screw machines, twin screw extruders excel in mixing, compounding, and facilitating chemical reactions within polymeric materials. Their continuous operation ensures the production of highly homogeneous and finely structured products, making them ideal for a wide range of end products and consistent quality control. The ability to adjust screw speed also helps maintain performance as components wear over time.
Distinct Advantages of Matila Twin Screw Extruders #
Matila’s segment-type twin screw extruders are engineered for maximum flexibility. The extrusion process is divided into distinct zones—feeding, conveying, mixing, metering, melting, dispersing, kneading, and degassing. Each block can be adjusted independently to meet the specific requirements of the final product, eliminating the need for complete screw replacement.
The screw elements and kneading blocks are custom-designed by Matila, and the configuration can be modified according to customer needs. These machines are suitable for processing a wide range of materials, including HDPE, LDPE, masterbatch, CaCO3, PET, and more. The system accommodates various additives, supporting efficient production and precise end-product quality.
