HAAKE extruders

Extensive product range from small laboratory instruments to pilot-class systemsThree steel quality options, depending on the intended applications: normal, hygiene and pharma grade.Automatic feeder systemsAnalysers can be connected to extruders, including fibre-optic FT-IR and FT-NIREasy to clean after use

The extensive product selection starts at the gram scale and extends to pilot and production grade systems. The identical 40 L/D geometry of all extruders allows for easy scaling, from the first tests to production.

MiniCTW

When compounding expensive or small scale materials such as nano-composites or engineered polymers, you need a fast, dependable, cost efficient method to obtain tangible results. Priced right, the HAAKE Mini CTW Micro-Conical Twin Screw Compounder is the answer: HAAKE MiniCTW Micro-Conical Twin Screw Compounder for industrial research and development needs a sample amount of 5g or 7cm3 only. Nobody can afford to waste expensive raw materials when developing new products. In addition, it helps to shorten time-to-market and cut development costs to gain a distinct competitive advantage. Therefore, quick and early assessments of a new material are key. The micro-conical twin screw compounder Thermo Scientific HAAKE MiniCTW allows extruding as little as five grams of material and thereby helps to accelerate the conception of the final product.

PolyLab OS

This measuring mixer and extruder system supports you in process modelling activities such as: compounding polymers with additives to reduce flammability, viscosity, etc.;

scale-up extrusion processes by using different L/D ratios to extrapolate to your master process line, simulating master processes using only as little as 50g of material to optimize extrusion or mixing in respect to temperature and shear profile or extrusion of strands, profiles or films in combination with rheological or optical measurements.

Consequently, you can optimize your process parameters, create test specimens or perform quality control on incoming and outgoing goods with regard to viscosity, dispersion or plasticising behaviour.

The drive unit of the HAAKE PolyLab OS system comprises all elements of a torque rheometer that are needed to drive the measuring system (precise speed controller) and to monitor the torque (accurate torque sensor) needed to process the test material.

Modularity

System architecture based on an open industry standard for flexible connection of different sensors and systems

Ease of operation

Fast and simple connection of measuring accessories without changing application and operating software

Remote controller

Operate the system from a distance and observe the entire test from a different location

Return on investment (ROI)

Time-saving instrument usage and meaningful results relative to the application increase product quality and reduce development time

Compatibility

The system features lab mixers as well as single and twin-screw (conical and parallel) extruders to provide most comprehensive data to our customers.

PolyLab QC

Confidently meet all your quality control demands. The HAAKE PolyLab QC Modular Torque Rheometer can be connected to an interchangeable mixer: a single-screw extruder or conical twin-screw extruder.

State-of-the-art hardware and software

You can choose from a bench or floor model of the HAAKE PolyLab QC Modular Torque Rheometer. With an optional rack on the floor model, the instrument can be moved or even stored if needed.

Based on the system’s backward compatibility, even existing measuring mixers and extruders can be connected to it. These devices are automatically recognized by the plug and play Thermo Scientific™ HAAKE™ PolySoft™ Software.

This same software also identifies individual limits of the measuring systems, such as torque, speed and temperature and sets alarm values to minimise errors.
