Right: Brabender manufactures the TwinLab series of extruders
disconnected for cleaning or maintenance purpos- es. For calibration or emptying hoppers, the dosing units can be swivelled into side positions without having to be lifted from their racks, side feeders can be moved between positions on guide rails, and integrated supports above the side feeders round off the compact design. The TwinLab series of extruders from Brabender
provides various configurations to process every- thing from liquids to pellets. The most recent model is the electrically heated twin-screw extruder B-TSE-S 30/40, which has a compact design combining the drive and the processing unit making it the smallest compounding system in its category on the market, according to the company. To allow users to gain a deeper understanding
of the materials they are working with, the latest versions are fitted with MetaBridge operating software which offers cross-platform access to measuring results, letting users access recorded data from any device and location providing up-to-the-minute information and eradicating transcription errors. This data can be exported to colleagues and third-party systems via email directly from the extruder.
