Barrier screws are specialized extrusion screws designed to enhance mixing, melting, and conveying of plastics during the extrusion process. They feature a unique design with a barrier flight that creates a barrier between the solids conveyed in the screw and the melt pool. This design helps to improve melt homogeneity, increase throughput, and reduce melt temperature variations, resulting in higher-quality extruded products.
Barrier Screw
Benefits
Enhanced Mixing and Melting Efficiency
Barrier screws facilitate thorough mixing of additives and colorants into the polymer melt, ensuring uniform distribution and improved material properties. This results in consistent product quality and reduced scrap rates.
Improved Melt Homogeneity
The barrier flight design creates a barrier between the solid particles and the melt pool, promoting better dispersion and homogenization of materials. This helps to eliminate melt variations and achieve uniform product characteristics.
Increased Throughput and Efficiency
By optimizing melt conveying and reducing shear heating, barrier screws enhance extrusion throughput while minimizing energy consumption. This leads to higher production efficiency and lower operational costs over time.
Temperature and Pressure Control
Barrier screws enable precise control over melt temperature and pressure profiles throughout the extrusion process. This capability is crucial for achieving consistent product dimensions, surface finish, and mechanical properties.
