– New twin-screw extruder ZE–CN for China's mixed-use companies
- Higher productivity and flexibility
Chinaplas Chinaplas will be held in Shanghai from April 24th to 27th, 2018. KraussMaffei Berstorff will present a new generation of high-performance twin-screw extruder ZE-CN in booth T01 in Hall 2H. Compared with the previous ZEPerformance series. Compared to the new series, the production capacity can be increased by 15%, and the flexibility of process engineering applications can be increased by up to 20%. 'Since Chinaplas at 2018 Chinaplas, the new generation of ZE-CN will gradually replace the model series ZE Performance,' Bengt Schmidt, vice president of KraussMaffei Berstorff in China, said, “The value of the ZE-CN model series has been enhanced through innovative technologies to meet the higher productivity requirements of Chinese customers,” continues Schmidt.
ZE-CN offers greater productivity and flexibility
The new ZE-CN series is equipped with a more powerful transmission system and screw threads and mandrels made of special materials to increase the torque density to 12.0 Nm/cm3. Compared to the previous model series, the torque is increased by 15%. The compounder can achieve higher productivity. In addition, barrel modules with 4D and 6D barrels have been expanded to allow precise adjustment of the processing units according to customer requirements. All barrels are equipped with precise temperature control. The customer trusts. Cooling is achieved by the water spray device, heating is done directly by the high power electric heating cartridge. The C-Clamp clamping flange system simplifies the installation and disassembly of the barrel. This will continue to shorten the preparation time when changing the barrel. .
The basic equipment includes a solid base with a temperature control unit and a fixed space for the oil lubrication system. The modern control software can be seamlessly integrated into the digital factory and is ready for Industry 4.0. All the controls are directly displayed on the machine via the control panel. Important extruder information saves time and improves work comfort.
In general, this series of products is of superior quality and stability, simple operation and high reliability. The high production efficiency makes it a safe investment with a short return on investment. It is a specialized solution to the standard tasks of Chinese compounders. The new ZE-CN series in the Chinese market will be produced by the KraussMaffei Group plant in Haiyan, China.
