High Temperature & Fluorocarbon Extruders (Including PEEK)
A range of extruders designed specifically for the processing of Fluorocarbons and High Temperature plastics.
Boston Matthews has extensive experience of the processing of Fluorocarbons and High Temperature Polymers such as PEEK.
When processing such polymers which require either very high temperatures or can emit corrosive gasses, specialist extrusion machinery is required. Boston Matthews has designed a range of extruders specifically for the processing of these polymers and incorporate such features to ensure high quality processing and output as well as machine longevity and operator safety.
AC direct-drive technology ensures screw speed holding is always achieved for maximum performance and quality.
Available in a range of sizes 1" (30mm) - 3¾" (80mm)
Designed specifically for processing high temperature polymers, fluorocarbons and engineering polymers (including PEEK)
Manufactured from "specialized" materials to ensure long life when processing at extreme temperatures or abrasive resins.
50 Years Screw Design and Polymer Processing Experience including specialised applications
AC Motor and Vector Drive for precise speed holding
Energy Saving ACCURTROL Temperature Control System
Plugs & Sockets for fast and easy maintenance by the operator
Range of options to meet your exact processing requirements including SMART Control System
Plug & Play Technology enables routine maintenance and replacement of heaters, fans, thermocouples to be carried out by the operator and not a dedicated maintenance engineer.
AC Motor technology with encoder feedback for precision screw speed holding combined with the intelligent "Accutrol” temperature control system ensures complete control over the extrusion operation.
Specialized materials are used to manufacture the screw to ensure non-corrosion and the correct extrusion conditions are meet.
Where required other design features have been incorporated to operate at such high temperatures or abrasive conditions.
All Boston Matthews extruders feature AC and Direct-Drive Technology.
This ensures maximum power transmission and eliminates the need for belts & pulleys (a wear item). This also reduces operational noise and dust levels as well as reducing energy consumption.
Extruders are available with traditional hard wired control or the optional SMART PLC control system. The colour touch-screen control offers many additional features including Recipe Storage; Password Protection and Security Levels; Product Traceability & Data Export; Ethernet Connectivity; Alarm History and much more.
Boston Matthews single screw extruders can be configured to integrate with any existing extrusion line.
