Twin-Screw Extruder (Leistritz ZSE 27 MAXX)
The Leistritz ZSE 27 MAXX is a co-rotating twin-screw extruder with a screw diameter of approximately 27 mm and a length-to-diameter ratio around 40 D. It combines a high free volume (OD/ID ratio of 1.66) with elevated specific torque (up to 15 Nm/cm³), enabling efficient compounding processes without compromising throughput or mixing intensity. The extruder's modular design features segmented barrels and screw elements supporting flexible configurations apadted to various processing tasks. Furthermore, the extrusion unit comprises atmospheric and vacuum degassing zones.
