Increase Production Fusion™ II Screw Superior Mixing, High Productivity Improve Product Quality Lower Melt Temperature Lower Drive Motor Load The Nordson XALOY Fusion™ II Screw The Nordson XALOY Fusion™ II screw delivers enhanced chaotic mixing while retaining the productivity benefits of faster plastication and lower melt temperature provided by Which Materials? The Nordson XALOY Fusion™ II screw has already proven to deliver benefits in processing: ABS PP HDPE LDPE LLDPE MDPE PET PLA the original Fusion™ screw. Like the original Fusion™ screw, the Fusion™ II has two barrier zones. The first melts and meters the material forward to a homogenizing transition zone. This zone is followed by a second barrier zone with an undulating root profile providing intensive, chaotic mixing. The key difference between the Fusion™ II screw and earlier models is that primary flights in the second barrier zone have grooves. The new design is covered by U.S. patent no. 7,014,353, and has Which Processes? The Nordson XALOY Fusion™ II screw is available for the following processes: Injection Molding Blown Film Sheet Extrusion Blow Molding Profile Pipe also been applied for international protection throughout the world, in Asia, Europe For other process applications consult us for a screw design recommendation. The grooves in the ights allow materials The Fusion™ II delivers the same productivity benefits in adjacent melt channels to mix together, as the earlier design. In injection molding, extrusion thus enhancing the intensive, chaotic and blow molding, the Fusion™ II can deliver increases mixing action produced by the screw’s in plasticating rate of 15 percent and melt temperature reductions of up to 10ºC compared with standard This further improves the dispersion of color and mixing screws. additives in the melt and enhances melt homogeneity.
