• The Trico-Ram system includes three independently speed-controlled pistons capable of extruding products at speeds ranging from 0.00005 to 40 mm/sec.
• Each of the three barrels has a 200 ml reservoir, allowing for batch extrusion processes.
• Independent piston drive control enables different volume rates in each barrel.
• Temperature control is available from +30°C to +250°C.
• The extrusion process is monitored and controlled using three extrusion pressure transducers, three product temperature sensors, and triple piston force control up to 40 kN.
• The design is approved for clean room conditions according to class A standards.

• The Ram-Extruder is based on the capillary rheometer platform, a proven testing instrument in the polymer industry.
• It offers high precision temperature control, ensuring stable conditions within the reservoir.
• The heating process in the reservoir is gentle, avoiding unwanted shear heating that can occur in continuous extruders.
• The linear speed-driven ram ensures a constant and stable diameter of the extrudate, unlike the pulsating flow in screw-driven extruders.
• The batch process minimizes material loss and product waste.
• High-cost products can be processed with less than 100 ml per extrusion cycle.
