food mixer extruders
Whilst Xtrutech specialises its service on Baker Perkins/APV Baker, Thermo Prism, Leistritz and W&P extruders operating in the Pharmaceutical and healthcare industry, we also provide service support for other twin screw machines including screw elements, shafts, barrel sections and liners, gearboxes, etc. Xtrutech’s ability is not just limited to accurately engineered components, but with its team of highly qualified process engineers, they are able to offer machine and process developments to improve existing products or to assist with the introduction of new products.
The range of screw elements includes feed screws, single lead screws, twin start lead screws and mixing paddles, individually or configured in blocks of forwarding and reversing paddles to add longevity. The elements can be supplied suitable for round, hexagonal or splined shafts and Xtrutech can upgrade your existing extruder to take the latest designs and give your machine extended life, higher capacity and lower maintenance costs.
Optimal screw designs have been developed by Xtrutech based on their intimate knowledge and experience of designing, building and running twin screw extruders for the Pharmaceutical, healthcare, food, and chemical industries over many years.
