Twin-screws extrude wood/plastic profiles.


A special metering section, originally developed by B&P Process Equipment in Saginaw Saginaw, city, United States
Saginaw (săg`ĭnô), city (1990 pop. 69,512), seat of Saginaw co., S Mich., on the Saginaw River, 15 mi (24 km) from its mouth on Saginaw Bay (an inlet of Lake Huron); settled 1816, inc. 1857.
, Mich., for corotating twin-screw compounding, is being used for the first time for direct extrusion of wood-composite profiles. The barrel section was introduced by Cincinnati Milacron, Batavia, Ohio Batavia is a village in Clermont County, Ohio, United States. The population was 1,617 at the 2000 census. It is the county seat of Clermont CountyGR6. Geography
Batavia is located at  (39.077332, -84.
, at the Wood Plastics Composites 2007 conference in Seattle last month. It is featured on Milacron's TE Series corotating twin-screw extruders for WPCs, developed with and built for Milacron by B&P.

 into two slightly smaller single screws. This creates two separate single-screw chambers, which build high pressure at low temperature before the die, eliminating the need for a separate gear pump A Gear pump uses the meshing of gears to pump fluid by displacement. They are one of the most common types of pumps for hydraulic fluid power applications. Gear pumps however are also widely used in chemical installations to pump fluid with a certain viscosity.  or single-screw discharge extruder. Tel: (513) 536-3320 * www.milacron.com
