The POTeTAL OF eXTRUO

Performance youcan depend on

What extrusion systems can do today would have

been unimaginable only a ew years ago. And the

trends towards ever more dierentiated appli-

cations and new and more cost-efcient processes

are gaining momentum. They are driven by the

need to produce ever better products and to keep

a tight grip on manuacturing costs. The building

industry is just one sector where pioneering

innovations have revolutionized the market in

recent years. With a wealth o new products and

international patents, KraussMaei Berstor has

been at the cutting edge o new development.

In this climate o rapid change, KraussMaei

Berstors extrusion division, with our highly

qualifed and experienced sta, is a orce to be

reckoned with. In close cooperation with our

customers, we develop practical and innovative

machines and processes that set standards in the

industry. They give our customers the reliable

processes and the perormance bonus they need

or a stronger competitive edge in their globalised

markets. And your success is our success!

Single-screw extrudersfrom 250 mm to 800 mm screwdiameter

KraussMaei Berstor builds single-screw extruders

or mixing, degassing and compounding. The KE

800 extruder with a screw diameter o 800 mm is the

worlds largest single-screw extruder. In LDPE syn-

thesis or melt pellet conversion, throughput rates o

up to 74tonnes per hour are achieved. One key step

in compounding is the degassing o hydrocarbons

and other volatile matter rom the melt. This reduces

the need or post-treatment o the pellets in silos and

protects the environment.
