Barrier Screws
The patented Xaloy® Fusion™ screw allows you to increase production and improve product quality in injection molding and extrusion process applications. Its design is the combination of proven barrier screw technology and a low shear metering section that provides chaotic mixing, reduced melt temperatures and improved throughputs.
How it works - Using our proven Barrier Design Technology
-
The separation of melted polymer from unmelted resin protects the melt from additional shear.
-
Next the homogeneity of these two melt differentials re-combines in a short metering section.
-
Then the final melting is completed by means of second barrier section designed for multi-cycle chaotic mixing.
Diameters available: 1.5" to 10"
