Boston Matthews has over 50 years screw design and manufacturing experience which includes many &#8220;firsts&#8221;. Further supported by 3D Design Software and Polymer Processing Flow Simulation Boston Matthews extruders are fitted with the exact screw(s) to process your polymers within the right conditions for the highest quality at all times.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\tEnergy Efficient Technology\n\t\t\t\t<p>All Boston Matthews extruders feature AC and Direct-Drive Technology. This ensures maximum power transmission and eliminates the need for belts &amp; pulleys (a wear item). This also reduces operational noise and dust levels as well as reducing energy consumption.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\tTotal Control\n\t\t\t\t<p>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 Receipe Storage; Password Protection and Security Levels; Product Traceability &amp; Data Export; Ethernet Connectivity; Alarm History and much more.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\tIntegration With Existing Equipment\n\t\t\t\t<p>Boston Matthews single screw extruders can be configured to integrate with any existing extrusion line.<\/p>\n\t<h3>Technical Specification \/ Brochure<\/h3>\n <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bostonmatthews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Extruders.pdf\" rel=\"noopener\">\n        <p>Extruders<\/p>      \n      <img width=\"232\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bostonmatthews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Extruders-pdf.jpg\" alt=\"\" decoding=\"async\" \/>  \n <\/a>\n\tGot a question?<br \/>\nJust ask\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Single Screw Extruders \/ Jockey Extruders (Piggy Back, Hugger) Designed and developed using over 50 years&#8217;\u00a0plastics processing experience Boston Matthews Jockey Extruders provide the optimum performance and the highest quality at all times.
