Continuous Kneader Technology

The Continuous Kneader applies a distinctive mixing principle. The screw oscillates and rotates
at the same time. In combination with kneading teeth, which are mounted in the barrel, excellent compounding results are obtained. Due to the motion of the screw and with respect to the bolts in the barrel every single point of the screw is cleaned, which results in narrow residence time distributions, and excellent self cleaning features. Another positive effect of the special
principle of motion is an ongoing reorientation of the material processed in the machine leading to excellent compounding results in minimum processing lengths even for very demanding tasks.
