50:1 L/D RECIRCULATOR COMPOUNDER



 
Standard Features:
  • Patent Pending Mixer Element that uses elongational mixing similar to the mixing flow that is so effective in twin screw extruders.
  • Screw channels depths of a typical 1" horizontal extruder for great feeding. 
  • Quick changing, 3 L/D water cooled feed sections to adapt to different materials.
Special Features Shown In This Picture:  
  • 50:1 L/D 5/8 inch Compounder
  • Pressure Readout to assure that elongational flow exists.
  • 6 zones of temperature control.
  • (2) Starve feeders.
  • Rod die and water trough.

Exciting tests were recently documented in apaper, "Compounding in Randcastle's Single Screw Extruder."  The results are dramatic.   Compounding of a TPO compared the new BT mixing element to a conventional UC mixer.  The 'gold standard' UC mixer wasn't even in the same class as the BT mixer.  Another test showed that wood flour could actually be compounded in the 25 to 40% range on a single screw extruder!  Both successful tests are normally compounded on twin screw extruders.
