The stand-alone TSE 20/40 extruder is a self-contained twin-screw extrusion system. The unit is equipped with a 5.2kW inverter drive. The advantage of the integrated motor is that it allows the system to reach a higher rotary speed (maximum 600 rpm) than a twin screw extruder powered by
a drive-unit.
Brabender says: “The design and persuasive features make the TSE 20/40 extruder a perfect solution for laboratory applications.”
The unit utilises the latest technology in CAN Field-Bus data communication. The stand-alone extruder is part of a new generation of compounding systems that offers a high degree of operating reliability for the compounding of various polymers.
The processing unit is a clamshell design with segmented screws. The modular screw design enables the operator to optimise the compounding application by utilising various kneading, mixing and shear elements of the screws.
The segmented screw elements are inter-changeable and can be realigned to adapt to a specific application.
The stand-alone extruder TSE 20/40 is ideal for the following tasks: incorporation of solid or liquid additives and pigments into polymers; filling, reinforcing, alloying and modification of thermoplastics and elastomers; regeneration of polymers; degassing of volatile matter with or with-out vacuum; and continuous reaction of polymers and other materials.
