Extrusion

Extrusion is widely used for about half of all plastics product manufacturing. Mostly by using single screw extruders, plastics products are manufactured. Most of these products contain a very wide range of additives, mainly in the form of masterbatches. These range from visible colours to the invisible traces of anti-block and slip additives. There are also continuing pressures to improve overall efficiencies and these require increased mixing performance in many cases.
