Consistent Quality
Specially designed co-rotating twin shaft feeders provide a positive material supply to the feedscrew, eliminating dead areas. This prevents any possible stagnation of input material and ensures even mixing and distribution. This consistency of supply to the extruder, and consequently to the extrusion die, guarantees the best possible final product, resulting in less waste.
Completely Customizable
Integrated system controls allow for heating of hopper and barrel, if required. Testing can be carried out in Diamond America’s laboratory using a scalable table top extruder to discover the “best conditions” and parameters for maximum process efficiency. Once production conditions have been optimized for product and throughput requirements, they are fully reproducible for every run, thanks to the accurate process monitoring and control systems on all Diamond America bulk feed extruders.
