Simple keyed design for basic torque transmission in low-load extrusion systems.

Best suited for:

• Low torque applications

• Legacy extruders

• PVC processing

SK conveying elements provide approximately 15% higher free volume than standard conveying elements and are particularly suitable for low bulk density materials.

Best suited for:

• Feeding zones

• Side feeding

• Low bulk density materials

Reverse kneading elements introduce backflow and pressure build-up, increasing residence time and enhancing mixing intensity.

Best suited for:

• Before venting zones

• Degassing preparation

• High mixing demand sections

Stretching elements, also called S-type elements, improve material exchange and distributive mixing in partially melted zones.

Best suited for:

• Semi-plasticized material zones

• Improved dispersion

• Gentle mixing processes

Cold-Forming high-torque shaft with improved strength and fatigue resistance for demanding extrusion conditions.

Best suited for:

• High torque extrusion systems

• High filler compounding

• Continuous high-load production

SME elements introduce shallow reverse grooves on conveying flights, generating controlled melt backflow and improving distributive mixing.

Best suited for:

• Melt stage mixing

• General distributive mixing

• Applications requiring good self-cleaning
