Introducing the Thermo Scientific Process 11 Parallel Twin-Screw Extruder
The Process 11 Parallel Twin-Screw Extruder was created with a user-friendly touch-screen operation that features an integrated feeder control and easily removable product contact parts. The compact monocoque design minimizes the usage of lab space and is ideal for fume hood applications. The screw elements and barrel design scale geometrically across all Thermo Scientific extruders and allow easy process scale-up.
Key Features
he Process 11 Parallel Twin-Screw Extruder Features:
Minimized sample material usage (20 g)
Throughput range 20g/h to 2.5kg/h
Small footprint bench top design that is easily transportable
Segmented screw design with removable top half barrel
Easy-to-operate touch screen with integrated feeder control
Geometrically scalable screw and barrel design across portfolio
Key Benefits
Recommended for: Materials:
Polymers
Additives
Adhesives
Food
Cosmetics
Applications:
Compounding
Masterbatches
Nanocomposites
A small footprint reduces lab space requirements and lower ingredient consumption reduces environmental contamination and operator exposure.

Each
7 x 5 L/D electrical heated (optional water cooled)
Horizontally split barrel (up to 40:1 L/D) is hinged for easy access to the screws; simple screw removal device promotes quick and easy cleaning and configuration changes
Barrel is constructed in segmented modules that can be reconfigured to suit a variety of polymer processes
Replaceable barrel liners can be made from special materials for abrasive or aggressive applications
Barrel segments are available for feeding solids and liquids or for venting
Secondary feeders and vacuum pumps can also be incorporated into the system
Powerful control software is programmed to recognize plug-in ancillaries
Large color touch screen interface incorporates on-screen, real-time trend display
Testing individual and combined influences of additives (stabilizer, lubricant) and functional additives (anti-oxidation, UV-stabilizers, pigments and fillers)
2-in-1 process design – quickly disassemble parts for easy cleaning and process switching from HME to TSG.
Simple continuous process integration – plug-and-play functionality with upstream and downstream process equipment (e.g., feeders, chill rolls, pelletizers, dryers, etc) simplifies production line design.
Less optimization time, cost and effort – extruder process parameters are scaleable to larger Thermo Scientific extruders due to geometric similarity with minimal use of expensive ingredients.
