Laboratory Extruders

Output achievements from 0.1 to 100 kg/h

Our Laboratory Extruders are little Allrounders

esde Laboratory Extruders are designed for research, development and teaching.  They are also excellently suited for product development, material samplings and small batch production.  Our customers are research institutions and universities, film manufacturers and chemical companies.  The basic design can be expanded by many variants and economical special constructions to meet the customer’s individual requirements.

Basic Version and Special Equipment

The suitable extruder size is determined by the desired output achievement and the type of plastic material to be extruded.  As a first step the modular and configural construction is adapted to the defined task, where an individual construction is required our engineers will design technical simple and solid operation modes.

 

The core of an esde Laboratory Extruder is the extruder screw.  We rely on the proven design of the barrier screw for separation of solid material and melt.  The barrier screw is either optimized for a special plastic material or is designed for universal use.  The universal barrier screw offers the opportunity to extrude a wide range of materials at different operating points.

Extrusion of High-Temperature Plastics

The focus of many product developments is on high-temperature plastic materials – for example PEEK. 

Their characteristics require special demands on extruders.  With our own extruder design we offer such a special solution – our 25 mm HT-Laboratory Extruder can extrude up to a maximal melt temperature of 420°C.

esde Laboratory Extruders are small, versatile and economical

  • With regard to design and construction they are small versions of our large extruders
  • Space-saving and compact design with the complete electrics integrated in the machine housing
  • Equipped with a quiet direct drive of low maintenance
  • Minor energy demand due to efficient heat utilization – the innovative screw geometry reduces the operation of the heating/cooling system to almost zero
  • Universal barrier screw for a wide range of plastic materials
  • Outputs from 0.1kg/h
  • Reliable processing of many thermoplastic materials, also high-temperature plastic materials
  • Informative operating data collection for a precise scale-up to large extruders
  • Individually adjusted
  • Made in Germany – designed and built in Westphalia

Operating Concept

The operating surface of our Laboratory Extruders has a user-friendly and clear structure.  We use a comfortable Touch-Screen Technology with logical user guidance.  The training effort for the operators is minimal as no programming knowledge is required.

 

The operating elements are positioned on the extruder and if needed on further line components, positioning as desired by the customer.

 

All the relevant processing data can easily be read and adjusted.  The control is upgradable with production data acquisition, an intersection to the Desktop PC and the possibility of remote control by our electrical engineers.
