TC 92/96 Conical Twin Screw extruders for WPC applications

Just try to find a wood-fiber composite extruder as powerful as a Cincinnati Milacron.
The wood-fiber industry is full of the promise of processing profits. Cincinnati Milacron, with its vast knowledge and experience in the production of profiles with solid board dimensions or highly engineered net shape hollow profiles, helped pioneer this exciting industry.
Along with our experience, we offer our time-tested machine design technology. Our complete line of large conical and parallel twin screw extruders has the highest output rates in the industry - up to 3,000 lbs/hr and higher.
Cincinnati Milacron’s expertise in counter-rotating twin screw extruders gives our wood-fiber plastic composite systems vital advantages:
- Large surface area in the feed zone for more efficient feeding of fluffy, highly filled (up to 70%), small particle size formulations.
- Low shear rate to minimize breakdown of the wood-fiber.
- Positive pumping characteristics, ensuring uniform material residence time.
- Energy efficient.
- Natural compression (conical - large volume to small volume) for effective wetting out of the wood-fiber in the polymer system.
- Highly efficient with HDPE, PVC or PP powders.
- One-step extrusion. Second stage is not required to pump fused material through a die.
***Only Cincinnati Milacron has the exacting screw geometries critical to achieving a homogenous melt and for effectively and efficiently removing the moisture in the final product.
Massive counter-rotating twin screws provide effective wetting out of a large amount of wood-fiber in a small amount of plastic.
We were innovative at the onset of the wood-fiber market and are going strong. Larger volume extruders, ever-increasing throughput rates, enhanced screw geometries and preheater/crammer feed systems...look to us for latest breakthroughs in the wood-fiber plastic composite systems industry.
