Efficient™ barrier extrusion screw

Efficient™ barrier extrusion screw

The Xaloy Efficient™ barrier screw design was one of the first patented screw designs in the history of plasticizing screw technology. Over the years, design methods and techniques have been refined to the point where this has become the most customizable barrier design in the Xaloy screw offering. The Xaloy Efficient™ barrier screw typically provides up to 20% more output than conventional screw designs, while offering better control over melt temperature and homogeneity.

Applications
  • Polyolefin medium output, low melting temperature processes
  • ABS medium output processes
  • Increases melting efficiency by not prematurely breaking up the solid bed.
  • Improves the homogeneity of the melt due to moderate shear due to barrier shear.
  • Increases melting speed and throughput thanks to “Efficient™” management of solid-state bed geometry
  • Improves melt temperature control through lower shear stresses after melting
