The new compounding extruder
installed in the LFT development plant
at Bensheim with its co-rotating,
26 mm diameter twin screws is
designed for throughputs of up to
150 kg/h. Installed upstream of the
extruder is a SOMOS® Gramix S
gravimetric dosing system for
accurately dosing and mixing
of up to nine components.
The ILLIG IC operating concept also
supports the aspects relevant for
large-volume production very effec-
tively. Besides modules used for
general process optimization, e.g. the
self adaptive start-up (sas-up) during
material or mold change, mainly IC
modules are employed which ensure
high productivity and reliability of a
production line and at the same time
help to minimize operation costs.
