Fabdecon engineers offers mixtruders. The mixtruder is designed for mixing and extruding almost every type of material that could be encountered in plastics, rubber, food, drugs and chemical industries. The machine is an efficient sigma type mixer with a screw in the bottom for unloading or extruding the mixed material. During the mixing process, the extrusion screw is driven in a reverse motion by a separate motor, this action of the screw pushes the material into the mixing zone and within reach of the blades, thus assuring a thorough blending of all the ingredients, and at the same time, reducing the mixing time as compared with a standard sigma type mixer. For discharging the material, the direction of the screw`s rotation is forwarded and the mixed material is then unloaded through the extension barrel. Extremely tough materials such as filled thermosetting resins and bulk moulding compounds are handled easily with the fabdecon mixtruder along with scores of other materials. The main mixing elements and extruder have different drives and as such both can operate independently. The present capacities range from 25 to 2,000 litres and can be supplied in various moc.
