Twin Feed Extrusion Equipment
Diamond America’s range of twin feed packing extrusion equipment provides efficient processing of all materials, even those with the most challenging properties. Extensive industry experience led Diamond America’s Engineers to design and develop innovative twin feed packers.
Counter-rotating feed screws and a novel configuration of feeders, extrusion screws and barrel liners combine to digest almost any product. Built in self-cleaning action prevents material from becoming clogged or dormant at any stage in the system. Durable stainless steel contact components are used throughout the extruder, with the optional addition of a wiper, to further decrease unwanted friction and improve throughput, allowing operation at peak energy efficiency.

Compact & Adapatable
Modular configuration allows easy customization of the Twin Feed Packers to include various extrusion die assemblies for profile or pellet processing, as well as rotary or guillotine cutters.
Operation is flexible, with unlimited choices for different processing options, including using touch screen control. The jacketed barrel with ribbed liner can be heated or cooled and the feed hopper can also be insulated if temperature modification is required.
Faster Processing
Standard Extruder screws on all models have 4:1 Length/Diameter ratio and the equipment bases are 8.5″ and 14″ C/L, respectively, with the option of a Tall Stand of 42″ C/L for the larger model. We can also customize the L/D ratio to meet your specific processing needs.
A quick change die retainer allows for ease of cleaning and maintenance, as well as rapid changeover, reducing downtime and further improving productivity.
