Co-rotating extruders

Product catalog summary

Overview of Co-rotating Twin Extruders
This document provides a detailed overview of state-of-the-art co-rotating twin extruders, focusing on different classes and their specifications, performance, and applications.

HP Family (High Performance)
The HP family is the latest addition, offering top-of-the-range performance. It includes two classes: HP-v and HP-t. The HP-v class combines boosted specific torque with higher free volume, while the HP-t class focuses on maximizing torque. Both classes are designed for demanding compounding production, processing materials requiring high specific energy with reduced energy consumption. Innovations include energy-efficient technological solutions and a new design.

HT Class
The HT extruders are designed for processes requiring high specific energy. They feature modular design, built-in water cooling, intermeshing screw geometry, and energy-saving systems. The HT class offers high flexibility, energy efficiency, and high plasticization capacity, with speeds from 150 to 750 rpm and sizes ranging from 30 to 140 mm.

V Class
The V class includes standard high- and low-speed co-rotating extruders available in ten sizes, from 40 to 220 mm. These extruders are optimized for specific processes, featuring high-performance barrels and modularity. They offer options for air or water cooling and wear-resistant liners.

HV Class (High Volume)
The HV series is designed for high free volumes in the melting chamber, allowing for high production performance for compounds requiring low specific energy. It features a nominal D/d ratio of 1.8 and specific torque of 10.5 Nm/cm³.

Special Design Extruders
Special extruders are available for reactive or thermo-sensitive compounds, such as XPE and PVC. These include clam-shell barrel, sliding barrel, and cascade design extruders.

Advanced Compounding Systems
These systems are suitable for a variety of applications, including resin compounds, masterbatches, polymeric alloys, techno-polymers, flame retardant resins, TPU, WPC, bio-resins, and cross-linkable polyethylene.

High-Capacity Compounding Systems
These systems are used in petrochemical plants and for PVC production, offering high capacity and flexibility.

Thermoplastic Rubber
Includes TPO, TPV, TPE, and TPU, modified with various resins or polyolefins for enhanced properties.

Advanced Recycling
Recycling systems are available for polyolefin waste, PET bottle flakes, and plastic textile yarn waste, offering solutions for high water or pollution content and a wide range of viscosity/density.

ICMA offers four class of co-rotating extruders within the MCM family. The HT extruders have speeds from 150 to 750 rpm and are available in sizes ranging from 30 to 140 mm. Standard high - and low-speed co-rotating extruders are available in ten different sizes, ranging from 40 Equipped with modified gearboxes and screw shafts, they can transmit up to 40% more torque than conven- to 220 mm. Extruders are normally configured for the specific process, and optimized to fully exploit the engi- tional extruders of the same size and screw speed. The HT line is designed especially for those processes...

HP family (HIGH PERFORMANCE) The HV (HIGH VOLUME) class The latest addition: the HP family, is top of the range in terms of performances. It is available in 2 distinct classes: HP-v that combines a boosted specific torque with a higher free volume available and the HP-t class instead characterized by the highest available torque. The innovation was not limited to the increase in the volume / torque values, but also a series of technological Designed and engineered to satisfy a specific market demand, the HV Series is based on high free volumes in the melting chamber. This concept allows for the...
