Custom Processing Services — multiple manufacturing equipment configurations perform many types of compounding and extruding services, including small- and large-volume capabilities.
Designed to handle various viscosities and solids loading — from light viscosity to very heavy viscous materials — our twin-screw, co-rotating compounding extruder allows us to customize to what you want, and our skilled technicians use multiple configurations to meet your needs. Our feeding systems enable different ingredients to be added to the mixture at the correct process interval, and multiple heating zones customize your complex application.
Twin-Screw Extruding
There are good reasons why Custom Processing Services uses a twin-screw, co-rotating compounding extruders for our tolling services: the latest technologies provide up to 30% greater throughput than competitors, ensuring maximum productivity; extremely energy-efficient operation; a wide range of applications; and great flexibility of the processing system. The extruder provides maximum performance on the smallest product quantities and is scalable for full-scale production.
Compounding is a continuous process with high energy consumption for mixing and dispersing pigments and additives. Our material specialists help you develop and manufacture your custom material. Applications include:
Reinforcement with glass, carbon, and other fiber materials
Degassing of volatile components
Filling with talcum, calcium carbonate, sawdust, carbon, or other problematic fillers
Alloying
Masterbatch addition
Compounding
Reactive extrusion
Chemical reactions such as polymerization, polycondensation, and polyaddition
