Flexible configuration with controlled feeding
and dispersion.
The Hot Feed Extruder is designed to take the material from the FCM™, Farrel Continuous Mixer, and features an oversized hopper opening that ensures efficient feeding. The continuous feed of material permits orientation of these extruders either parallel or at right angles to the axis of the FCM™ rotors.
Standard Features Include:
- Connecting chutes between the mixer and the extruder
- Specially designed seals are suitable for nitrogen purging or vacuum application
- Custom adaptation for monitoring of material in-feed
Additional features include:
- A divert door included with chutes for redirecting start-up and shutdown of material flow from the FCM™
- Custom designed screw geometry, including L/D, venting, and mixing
- An optimized pusher for uniform ingestion
