2. Core Processing Technology of Engineering Plastics: Twin-Screw Extrusion Technology
Engineering plastics processing mainly includes extrusion, moldeo tumen inyección, moldeo tumen soplado, molding and other methods, among which twin-screw extrusion technology is the core technology for the production of engineering plastic compounds (such as modified engineering plastics, reinforced engineering plastics) and semi-finished products (bey le tuberías, le'o'ob, fibers). Compared with single-screw extrusion technology, twin-screw extrusion technology has the advantages of strong shearing force, good mixing effect, kaambalil yo'osal u temperatura jach jaaj, short residence time and strong adaptability to raw materials, which can effectively solve the processing difficulties of engineering plastics (such as sensitivity to overheating and hydrolytic degradation, poor mixing effect, low processing efficiency) and ensure the quality of engineering plastic products.

2.1.2 High Requirements on Mixing and Dispersing Effect
In engineering plastics processing, it is often necessary to add modifiers (such as glass fiber, láaj jo'ochiko'obe' carbono, talco, retardantes u k'áak', compatibilizadores) to improve the performance of the product (such as reinforcing, toughening, retardador u k'áak'). jéel bix, adding glass fiber to PA can improve its strength and dimensional stability; adding flame retardants to PBT can improve its flame retardancy. The uniform mixing and dispersion of modifiers in the engineering plastic matrix is crucial to the performance of the final product. If the mixing and dispersing effect is poor, the modifiers will agglomerate, resulting in uneven performance of the product, and even reduce the mechanical properties of the product.
This requires the extrusion equipment to have strong shearing force and mixing capacity. Twin-screw extruders adopt intermeshing co-rotating or counter-rotating twin-screw structure, and the relative movement between the screws can generate strong shear force and kneading force, which can fully break the agglomerates of modifiers, make the modifiers uniformly dispersed in the engineering plastic matrix, and ensure the mixing and dispersing effect. Beyxan, the modular design of the twin-screw can freely combine different screw elements (such as conveying elements, xa'ak'tik elementos, shearing elements) according to the type of engineering plastic and modifier, further improving the mixing and dispersing effect.
2.1.3 High Requirements on Wear Resistance of Equipment
In the processing of reinforced engineering plastics (such as glass fiber reinforced PA, carbon fiber reinforced PPS), the added glass fiber, carbon fiber and other modifiers have high hardness, which will cause serious wear to the screw and barrel of the extruder during the extrusion process. If the screw and barrel have poor wear resistance, they will be worn quickly, resulting in reduced shearing force and mixing capacity of the extruder, affecting the product quality and reducing the service life of the equipment.
This requires the screw and barrel of the extruder to be made of high-quality wear-resistant materials and processed by advanced manufacturing technology. Our HTS series extruders adopt imported wear-resistant alloy steel for the screw and barrel, and undergo bimetallic composite treatment or laser cladding treatment, which greatly improves the wear resistance and corrosion resistance of the screw and barrel, and can adapt to the processing of reinforced engineering plastics with high hardness modifiers.
2.1.4 High Requirements on Processing Fluidity and Pressure Control
Some engineering plastics (such as PPS, PEEK) have high viscosity and poor processing fluidity, which require the extruder to have strong conveying capacity and pressure control capacity to ensure the smooth progress of extrusion. If the conveying capacity is insufficient or the pressure control is unstable, it will cause uneven extrusion speed, unstable product size, and even equipment blockage.
Twin-screw extruders have strong conveying capacity and stable pressure control capacity. The intermeshing of the twin screws can generate strong pumping force, which can effectively convey high-viscosity engineering plastic materials; ti' le k'iino' je'el xano' k'iin, the extruder is equipped with a high-precision pressure sensor, which can monitor the extrusion pressure in real time and adjust the screw speed and feeding speed automatically to ensure the stability of the extrusion pressure and the smooth progress of processing.

Le principio meyaj específico yéetel le flujo tuukula' le le je'ela':
2.2.1 Raw Material Pretreatment
Raw material pretreatment is the foundation of engineering plastics extrusion processing, which directly affects the processing effect and product quality. The raw materials of engineering plastics mainly include engineering plastic resin (bey PA, PC, POM), modifiers (such as glass fiber, láaj jo'ochiko'obe' carbono, talco, retardantes u k'áak'), compatibilizadores, lubricants and other additives. The pretreatment steps are as follows:
- Drying Treatment: Ya'ab plásticos ti' ingeniería (bey PA, PBT, PPS) yaan ka'anal absorción ja', and the moisture in the raw materials will cause hydrolytic degradation during high-temperature processing, resulting in product defects (such as bubbles, cracks, reduced mechanical properties). Beytuno, the raw materials must be dried before processing. The drying temperature and time are determined according to the type of engineering plastic: jéel bix, PA6 is dried at 80-100℃ for 4-6 oora'ob, PA66 is dried at 100-120℃ for 6-8 oora'ob, PBT is dried at 120-140℃ for 2-4 oora'ob, PPS is dried at 150-160℃ for 3-5 oora'ob. The moisture content of the dried raw materials should be controlled below 0.1%-0.2%.
- Premixing Treatment: According to the formula ratio, the dried engineering plastic resin, modifiers and additives are put into a high-speed mixer for premixing. The purpose of premixing is to make the modifiers and additives uniformly adhere to the surface of the resin particles, improve the mixing effect during extrusion, and avoid local agglomeration of modifiers. The mixing speed is generally 800-1200 rpm, and the mixing time is 5-10 minuto'ob. For some modifiers with poor compatibility (such as glass fiber and PA), a compatibilizer should be added during premixing to improve the compatibility between the modifier and the resin.
- Crushing and Sieving: For engineering plastic resins with large particle size or modifiers with uneven particle size (such as glass fiber), crushing and sieving treatment should be carried out to ensure the uniformity of raw materials and avoid affecting the mixing and dispersing effect during extrusion. The particle size of the crushed raw materials should be controlled at 20-40 malla.
2.2.2 Feeding and Conveying
The premixed raw materials are sent to the feeding hopper of the twin-screw extruder through a screw feeder or a belt feeder. The feeding device of the extruder is usually equipped with a frequency conversion speed regulation function, which can adjust the feeding speed according to the screw speed and extrusion speed to ensure that the materials enter the extrusion cavity stably and uniformly, avoiding material accumulation or insufficient feeding. The feeding hopper is also equipped with a drying device to prevent the raw materials from absorbing moisture again during feeding.
2.2.3 U derretimiento, Mixing and Shearing
The materials entering the extrusion cavity of the twin-screw extruder are pushed forward continuously by the rotating screws. The extrusion cavity is composed of a screw and a barrel, yéetel u volumen le cavidad extrusión jujump'íitil disminuye a lo largo de le dirección le bak'pach. When the screws rotate, the materials are gradually compressed under the action of the screws and the barrel, yéetel le presión ti' le cavidad extrusión jujump'íitil aumenta (generally 5-15MPa).
Te' k'iino' je'el xano' k'iin, the materials are subjected to strong shear force and friction force generated by the relative movement between the screws and the barrel, bey xan ichil le vuelos tornillo. The shear force and friction force can fully break the agglomerates of modifiers, make the modifiers uniformly dispersed in the melted engineering plastic resin, and promote the fusion and compatibility between the modifier and the resin. The friction force can also generate a certain amount of heat, which is combined with the external heating of the barrel (electric heating or steam heating) to make the engineering plastic resin gradually melt and plasticize.
The barrel of the extruder is usually divided into 4-6 temperature control sections (jaatsil u tséenta'al, melting section, mixing section, homogenizing section, die head section), and the temperature of each section is precisely controlled according to the type of engineering plastic. jéel bix, when processing PA66+GF30 (glass fiber reinforced PA66), the temperature of the feeding section is 120-140℃, the melting section is 250-260℃, the mixing section is 260-270℃, the homogenizing section is 250-260℃, and the die head section is 240-250℃. The precise temperature control can ensure that the resin is fully melted without thermal decomposition, and the modifiers are uniformly dispersed.
2.2.4 Extrusion and Shaping
The fully melted, mixed and dispersed material is pushed to the die head of the extruder by the screws. The die head is designed according to the shape of the final product: for the production of engineering plastic compounds (gránulos), the die head is equipped with multiple circular die holes (the number and size of die holes are determined according to the particle size of the granules); for the production of pipes, le'o'ob, fibers, the die head is designed into corresponding shapes (such as circular die for pipes, flat die for sheets).
The material is extruded from the die head at a high speed to form continuous semi-finished products (such as strips for granules, tubos, le'o'ob). The temperature of the die head is slightly lower than that of the homogenizing section, which can prevent the material from decomposing due to excessive temperature and ensure the shaping effect of the semi-finished products. The extrusion speed is controlled according to the type of engineering plastic and the shape of the product, generally ranging from 0.5-5m/min.
2.2.5 Cooling and Solidification
The extruded semi-finished products are sent to a cooling device for rapid cooling and solidification. The cooling method is determined according to the shape of the product: for strips (granule production), water tank cooling is usually used, and the cooling water temperature is controlled at 20-30℃, yéetel u k'iinil enfriamiento jach 2-5 minuto'ob; for pipes and sheets, air cooling or water spray cooling is used, and the cooling speed should be controlled to avoid product deformation due to uneven cooling. Rapid cooling can make the semi-finished products solidify quickly, maintain the shape and size of the products, and improve the mechanical properties of the products.
2.2.6 Cutting and Post-Processing
After cooling and solidification, the semi-finished products are processed into the final product through cutting or other post-processing steps. For the production of engineering plastic compounds (gránulos), the cooled strips are sent to a granulator for cutting, and the granulator is equipped with a rotary knife, which can cut the strips into granular products with uniform size (the particle size is generally 2-5mm, which can be adjusted according to customer needs). For the production of pipes and sheets, the cooled semi-finished products are cut into the required length through a cutting machine; for the production of fibers, the cooled filaments are drawn and wound to form fiber products.
Beyxan, the final product also needs to undergo post-processing steps such as screening, inspection and packaging. The screening step is to remove unqualified products (such as too large, too small or agglomerated particles); the inspection step is to detect the performance (such as mechanical strength, resistencia ti' le ooxoj, dimensional accuracy) of the product to ensure that it meets the customer’s requirements; the packaging step is to package the qualified product in a sealed and moisture-proof manner to prevent the product from absorbing moisture and affecting the quality.
2.3 Key Factors Affecting Engineering Plastics Twin-Screw Extrusion Effect
The effect of twin-screw extrusion directly affects the quality and performance of engineering plastic products. There are many factors affecting the extrusion effect, mainly including raw material characteristics, formula ratio, premixing effect, extrusion parameters and die head structure. Mastering these key factors and making scientific adjustments can ensure the stability of the extrusion effect and the consistency of product quality.
2.3.1 Raw Material Characteristics
The type, particle size, moisture content and purity of raw materials have a great impact on the extrusion effect. jéel bix, the particle size of engineering plastic resin and modifiers should be uniform; if the particle size is uneven, it will lead to uneven melting and mixing of materials. The moisture content of raw materials must be strictly controlled below 0.1%-0.2%; if the moisture content is too high, it will cause hydrolytic degradation of the material and bubbles in the product. The purity of raw materials is also very important; impurities in raw materials (such as metals, stones, polbóo) will not only affect the product quality, but also wear the screw and barrel of the extruder, and even cause equipment blockage.
2.3.2 Formula Ratio
The formula ratio of engineering plastic compounds (the ratio of resin, modifiers and additives) is the key to determining the performance of the product. The type and dosage of modifiers should be determined according to the performance requirements of the product. jéel bix, ku ts'áabal 20%-40% of glass fiber to PA can significantly improve its strength and dimensional stability, but excessive glass fiber will reduce the toughness and processing fluidity of the product. The type and dosage of additives also need to be reasonably matched: compatibilizers can improve the compatibility between modifiers and resin, and the dosage is generally 0.5%-2%; lubricants can reduce the friction between materials and equipment, ma'alo'obkíinsiko'ob u fluidez le procesamiento, and the dosage is generally 0.3%-1%; antioxidants can prevent the material from thermal oxidation degradation during processing, and the dosage is generally 0.1%-0.5%.
2.3.3 Efecto u premezcla
Le premezcla jach u k'oja'ano'obo' le procesamiento extrusión. The uniformity of premixing directly affects the mixing and dispersing effect of modifiers during extrusion. Wa le premezcla ma' jach igual, the modifiers cannot be uniformly adhered to the surface of the resin, resulting in local agglomeration of modifiers, uneven mixing of materials during extrusion, and reduced product performance. To ensure the premixing effect, it is necessary to control the mixing speed, mixing time and mixing temperature: the mixing speed is 800-1200 rpm, the mixing time is 5-10 minuto'ob, and the mixing temperature is controlled at 40-60℃ (appropriate temperature can improve the adhesion of additives and promote uniform mixing).
2.3.4 Parámetros u extrusión
Extrusion parameters are the most important factors affecting the extrusion effect, chuunil laat'a'an incluyendo velocidad le tornillo, temperatura u extrusión yéetel presión u extrusión.

The extrusion pressure should be adjusted according to the type of engineering plastic and the shape of the product: for high-viscosity materials and products with small die holes, a higher extrusion pressure is needed.
2.3.5 Ba'ax u pool le kíimilo'
The die head structure mainly includes the shape, size and number of die holes, which directly affects the shaping effect and quality of the product. For the production of engineering plastic compounds (gránulos), the die head should be equipped with multiple uniform die holes, and the size of the die holes should be matched with the particle size of the product; for the production of pipes and sheets, the die head should be designed according to the shape and size of the product, and the flow channel of the die head should be smooth to avoid material accumulation and local overheating. The die head should also be equipped with a temperature control device to ensure the uniform temperature of the die head and the stable shaping of the product.
3. Our HTS Series Extruders: Professional Solutions for Engineering Plastics Processing
Ts'o'ok u xáantal k táakpajal ti' le investigación, development and production of high-performance twin-screw extruders, and have accumulated rich experience in the field of engineering plastics processing. According to the processing characteristics of engineering plastics (sensitivity to overheating and hydrolytic degradation, high requirements on mixing and dispersing effect, high viscosity) and application needs, we have developed the HTS series twin-screw extruders specially for engineering plastics processing. Our HTS series extruders adopt high-torque gearboxes, with a specific torque of 14Nm/cm³ and a maximum speed of up to 1000rpm, which can obtain higher output, shorter residence time, better dispersibility and more precise temperature control, perfectly adapting to the processing needs of various engineering plastics.
3.1 Core Advantages of HTS Series Extruders for Engineering Plastics Processing
3.1.1 High Torque and High Speed, Ka'anal eficiencia ti' le producción
Engineering plastics have high viscosity and poor processing fluidity, which require the extruder to have strong torque and conveying capacity. Our HTS series extruders adopt high-torque gearboxes independently developed and manufactured by us (HTS PLUS series and HTS SUPER series) or imported from leading European manufacturers (HTS BASIC series), with a specific torque of 14Nm/cm³, which is much higher than that of ordinary twin-screw extruders (general torque is 8-12Nm/cm³). The high torque design ensures that the extruder can stably convey high-viscosity engineering plastic materials, avoid material accumulation and equipment blockage, and improve the stability of the extrusion process.
Te' k'iino' je'el xano' k'iin, the HTS series extruders have a high speed design, with a maximum speed of up to 1000rpm. The high speed can generate strong shear force and mixing force, which can fully break the agglomerates of modifiers, make the modifiers uniformly dispersed in the resin matrix, and improve the mixing and dispersing effect. Beyxan, the high speed design also greatly improves the production efficiency: ti' comparación yéetel le extrusoras ordinarias, the production efficiency of HTS series extruders can be increased by 30%-50%, which can meet the large-scale production needs of engineering plastics enterprises.
3.1.2 Short Residence Time, Effectively Avoiding Thermal Degradation
As engineering plastics are sensitive to overheating and hydrolytic degradation, the residence time of materials in the extruder is crucial. Our HTS series extruders adopt an optimized screw structure and barrel design, with a short residence time of only 1-3 minuto'ob, which is much shorter than that of ordinary twin-screw extruders (5-10 minuto'ob) and single-screw extruders (10-15 minuto'ob). The short residence time can effectively reduce the contact time between the material and high temperature, avoid thermal decomposition and hydrolytic degradation of the material, and ensure the mechanical properties and heat resistance of the product.

Beyxan, the barrel of the HTS series extruders adopts a double-layer jacket design, which can realize rapid heating and cooling, and improve the response speed of temperature control. The die head is also equipped with an independent temperature control device, which ensures the uniform temperature of the die head and the stable shaping of the product.
3.1.4 Excellent Mixing and Dispersing Effect
The HTS series extruders adopt an intermeshing co-rotating twin-screw structure, with a reasonable screw pitch, lead and compression ratio design. The intermeshing and rotating of the twin screws can generate strong shear force and kneading force, which can fully break the agglomerates of modifiers (such as glass fiber, láaj jo'ochiko'obe' carbono, talco), make the modifiers uniformly dispersed in the engineering plastic resin matrix, and ensure the mixing and dispersing effect. The mixing uniformity of the HTS series extruders can reach more than 95%, which is much higher than that of ordinary twin-screw extruders (85%-90%).
The screw of the HTS series extruders adopts a modular design, and different types of screw elements (such as conveying elements, xa'ak'tik elementos, shearing elements) can be freely combined according to the type of engineering plastic and modifier. jéel bix, when processing reinforced engineering plastics with glass fiber, more shearing elements can be configured to enhance the shearing effect and ensure the uniform dispersion of glass fiber; when processing engineering plastics with high viscosity (such as PPS), more mixing elements can be configured to improve the mixing effect and ensure the uniform viscosity of the material.
3.1.5 High Wear Resistance, Long Service Life
In the processing of reinforced engineering plastics (such as glass fiber reinforced PA, carbon fiber reinforced PPS), the added modifiers have high hardness, which will cause serious wear to the screw and barrel of the extruder. Our HTS series extruders adopt high-quality wear-resistant materials and advanced manufacturing technology to ensure the wear resistance of the core components.
The screw and barrel of the HTS series extruders are made of imported wear-resistant alloy steel (such as 38CrMoAlA), and undergo bimetallic composite treatment or laser cladding treatment. The surface hardness of the screw and barrel can reach ≥65 HRC (HTS BASIC series) and ≥70 HRC (HTS PLUS series and HTS SUPER series), which has extremely strong wear resistance and corrosion resistance, and can effectively resist the wear caused by high-hardness modifiers. This greatly extends the service life of the screw and barrel: the service life of the screw and barrel of the HTS series extruders is 2-3 times that of ordinary extruders, reducing the frequency of component replacement and the maintenance cost of the equipment.
Beyxan, we also provide professional wear detection services for the screw and barrel. Our technical team will regularly detect the wear degree of the screw and barrel for customers, issue a detailed wear report, and put forward targeted replacement and maintenance suggestions, ensuring that customers only replace components when necessary, avoiding unnecessary waste.
3.1.6 Wide Application Range, Strong Flexibility
The HTS series extruders have a wide application range, which can adapt to the processing needs of various engineering plastics, including general engineering plastics (PA, PC, POM, BA'ALCHE, PBT) and special engineering plastics (PPS, PEEK, PSU, PES). The extruders can also adapt to the processing of various modified engineering plastics, such as reinforced engineering plastics (glass fiber reinforced, carbon fiber reinforced), toughened engineering plastics, flame-retardant engineering plastics, antistatic engineering plastics, etc.
The modular design of the HTS series extruders (toorniyo, barril, kíimil pool, etc.) makes the replacement of components more convenient and quick. When customers need to adjust the product type (such as switching from PA processing to PPS processing) or modify the formula, they only need to replace the corresponding components, without replacing the entire equipment, which reduces the cost of equipment transformation and improves the flexibility and adaptability of the equipment. Beyxan, the HTS series extruders can also be matched with different auxiliary equipment (such as high-speed mixers, dryers, coolers, granulators, screening machines, packaging machines) to form a complete automatic production line, realizing continuous production from raw material pretreatment to product packaging.
3.1.7 Intelligent Control, Easy Operation and Maintenance

Le je'ela' yaan Jayp'éel sugerencias selección específicas:
3.3.1 Determine the Extruder Series According to the Type of Engineering Plastics
Different types of engineering plastics have different processing requirements, which determine the selection of extruder series. For general engineering plastics (PA6, PA66, POM, BA'ALCHE, PBT) with low modification degree (filling amount ≤30%), the HTS BASIC series is sufficient to meet the processing needs. Its medium torque and flexible configuration can balance processing effect and cost, which is very suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises that just start to engage in engineering plastics processing or focus on general-purpose products. For high-modified engineering plastics (cantidad u llenado 30%-50%, such as glass fiber reinforced PA, carbon fiber reinforced PBT) and special engineering plastics with moderate processing difficulty (such as PPS), the HTS PLUS series is the preferred choice. Its high torque of 14Nm/cm³ and excellent mixing and dispersing capacity can effectively solve the problem of uneven dispersion of high-content modifiers, and its wear-resistant screw and barrel can adapt to the wear of hard modifiers, ensuring stable production. For high-end special engineering plastics (PEEK, PI, PSU, PES) and high-performance modified engineering plastics (filling amount ≥50%, such as carbon fiber reinforced PEEK), the HTS SUPER series must be selected. Its ultra-high torque, maximum 1000rpm speed and fully optimized key structure can cope with the high viscosity, high temperature resistance and strict processing requirements of high-end materials, avoid thermal decomposition and material degradation, and ensure the high performance of the final product.
3.3.2 Determine the Screw Diameter and Production Capacity According to the Processing Scale
The screw diameter of the twin-screw extruder directly determines the production capacity, and enterprises need to select the appropriate screw diameter according to their own production scale and order demand. For small-scale production (100kg/h – 500kg/h), such as small-batch customization, product research and development or small orders, the HTS BASIC series with screw diameter of 30mm – 65mm is suitable; for medium-scale production (500kg/h – 2000kg/h), such as mass production of general modified engineering plastics, the HTS PLUS series with screw diameter of 65mm – 110mm can meet the demand; for large-scale production (1000kg/h – 3000kg/h), such as large-scale production of high-end special engineering plastics or large orders from downstream enterprises, the HTS SUPER series with screw diameter of 80mm – 130mm is the best choice. It should be noted that when selecting, enterprises should not blindly pursue large production capacity. They should also consider the fluctuation of order quantity. If the order quantity is unstable, they can choose equipment with adjustable speed and flexible production capacity (such as HTS BASIC series with frequency conversion speed regulation function) to avoid waste of equipment resources and energy.
3.3.3 Consider the Modification Demand and Mixing Effect
If the enterprise’s main products are modified engineering plastics, the mixing and dispersing effect of the extruder is the key factor to be considered.
