Application fields

Application fields: engineering plastics, bio-based materials, nanocomposites, medical polymers, 3D printing filament, pre-scale-up review

Typical fields include engineering plastics (formulation screening and process-window exploration for PEEK, PI, PPS high-temp systems), bio-based materials (low-thermal-history compounding and degradation evaluation for PLA, PBS, PHA), nanocomposites (high-shear dispersion of CNT, graphene, SiO₂, TiO₂ and masterbatch development), medical polymers (small-batch clean sampling and process validation for PLGA, resorbables, drug carriers), 3D printing filament (compounding and drawing validation of flame-retardant, conductive, magnetic filaments), and pre-scale-up review (traceable process data as a reliable basis for pilot scale-up).

Typical experimental workflow

Typical experimental workflow: micro feeding, melt compounding, data acquisition, modular sampling, performance test

Each run moves from micro feeding (5–15 g batch) through melt compounding (twin-screw shear dispersion) and data acquisition (torque / temperature / pressure) to modular sampling (injection / film / fiber) and performance testing (mechanical / rheology).

Why choose the Extrova™ Micro-conical Extruder

Lower trial costScreen high-value resins, drug carriers or nano-fillers without kilogram-scale consumption.
Fast changeover180° split-open barrel and removable screws for easy cleaning — ideal for multi-formulation small batches.
Scale-up readyTorque, temperature and pressure data map directly to pilot extrusion parameters.
Easy-clean designThe split barrel simplifies cleaning and inspection, preventing batch-to-batch contamination.

Modular output samples

The extruder pairs with modular downstream units to turn each compounded batch directly into test-ready samples:

Injection moldingStandard test bars for mechanical testing.
Cast filmFilm samples for functional film R&D.
SpinningFibers & filaments for fiber formulation work.
PelletizingSmall-batch pellets for downstream processing.

Digital twin system

A digital twin system keeps the physical extruder and its digital model in real-time sync:

Real-time monitoringTorque, temperature, pressure and speed.
Virtual simulationProcess visualization and playback.
Intelligent optimizationFormulation screening and process-window recommendation.
Scale-up predictionData mapping from lab batches to pilot scale.
