The extruders from Three-Tec are characterized by a compact design, a high torque and a intuitive operation by means of a touch panel. They are available with various screw diameters from 5 to 100 mm and can process smallest quantities from 1 gram as well as large quantities up to 2 tons.
Our mini extruders, which we have been developing and producing since 2005, are among the most world’s smallest devices. Through the compact and user-friendly construction the total cost per test is significantly lower than for other devices.
Special customer requirements can be realized at short notice thanks to Three-Tec’s flexible approach and extensive know-how.
Highlights of Our Extruders
Screw diameter
Our extruders are available with different screw diameters and L:D ratios (15:1 to 50:1).
Rapid assembly or disassembly capability
Tri-clamp and bayonet connections enable a higher sample throughput.
Easy cleaning
The extruders are designed for easy cleaning and simple cleaning validation.
Temperature gradients
Steep temperature gradients between segments are possible due to cuts in the barrel.
Compact and lightweight
Due to their small size and light weight, the mini extruders are easy to transport.
Low active ingredient requirement
The mini extruders impress with their low active ingredient requirement and enable very small preparations.
Advantages
Multifunction extrusion from small quantities to production scale for research and development as well as production applications. Extrusion results are optimally suited for upscaling or downscaling. The extruders perform complex extrusion tasks under difficult conditions such as high pressure, high torque or steep temperature gradients.
