Barrel Types

Our state-of-the-art twin screw extruder barrels are designed to elevate your production processes with unmatched adaptability and quality. Understanding that each process has unique demands, we offer an extensive selection of barrel types.

Feed Barrels:

Designed for optimal introduction of raw materials.

Side-feed Barrels:

Allows for the addition of materials along the processing section.

Degassing Barrels:

Engineered for the effective removal of gas or moisture during the extrusion process.

Combi Barrels:

Combine several functions within a single barrel unit for efficiency.

Closed Barrels:

Ensures a controlled environment for precise material processing.

With a suitable configuration, materials can be added along the processing section or gas or moisture removed. Normally the barrels are equipped with bored (liquid) heat transfer channels.

Replaceable liners

As the barrel is a particularly valuable and critical part of a twin screw extruder’s configuration, it is, in many cases, equipped with a replaceable liner. Once it’s been detected that predefined wear tolerances have been exceeded, only this liner has to be replaced with a new one. The valuable outer barrel can be re-used as long as the cooling system is not irreversibly plugged by encrustation or corrosion. C.A.PICARD® offers top-quality barrels with or without liner, or just the replacement liner itself.

C.A.PICARD®'s service range also includes the exchange of liners and the conversion of a solid barrel to a variant with liner.

Shafts

Shafts play a decisive role in transferring the torque of the drive to the screw segments and hence to the process. Shaft design options are pretty limited because of geometric restrictions. High torque is essential to ensure economical production and quality of the end product. Therefore, shafts have to deliver maximum mechanical performance.

Shafts made by C.A.PICARD® offer the optimum performance available using modern material technology. You can make use of the full potential of your twin screw extruder when you take it to the limits.
