Compounding and Pelletizing
The AET's "Advantage Series" line of compounding and pelletizing extruders (see picture below), available in all standard sizes, can be supplied to a maximum L/D ratio of 50:1. The longer units enable multiple vent ports and/or side feed ports to be incorporated. They are supplied with custom designed feed screws incorporating a variety of mixing sections for superior mixing ability. They are also available with vacuum venting, single or twin-screw side feeders to incorporate additives such as wood flour, fiberglass, etc. and screw (crammer) feeder (see photo below) for hard to feed materials like powder, light bulk density, etc. Down stream they can be equipped with screen changers (slide plate or continuous) and pelletizer (under water, water ring, water slide or strand type systems) (see picture below).
