Process engineering and powder handling solutions from Three-Tec

Published: 17-May-2018

The specilist developer, producer and distributor of feeding systems and extruders for the pharmaceutical, chemical, food and plastics industries, will be attending ACHEMA from 11 to 15 June 2018

At this year's Achema event, Three-Tec will introduce the following novelties in addition to its innovative and high-quality feeders, extruders and peripherals:

Micro-feeder ZD 5 FB i6000 with integrated load cells

The new gravimetric micro-feeding system with integrated load cells and Siemens weighing electronics, installed in a small, separate control box, is suitable for high-precision and continuous micro-feeding in the range of 0.003 - 0.8 dm3/h.

Hybrid laboratory extruder

Thanks to a void volume of only 1.2 cm3 with 5 mm screw diameter, the parallel twin-screw Mini-Extruder Hybrid has a very low active ingredients consumption. It is therefore ideally suited for extrusion options in resource-saving miniature scale.

Thanks to the universal use of heating and cooling parts, nozzle plates, pressure and temperature sensors, the device offers the flexibility to convert from 5 or 9mm to 9 or 12mm screw diameter in just a few minutes. The range of application is thereby significantly increased compared to conventional extruders.

Production line in high-containment box with 18mm twin screw extruder

The high-containment box with integrated feeding system, 18mm twin screw extruder, conveyor belt and granulator ensures that the process from mixing the powders to the finished granules takes place in a protected and controlled environment. This eliminates the need to set up a complete cleanroom because the drive technology and the scale are in the non-contaminated area and the lead-through is sealed.

Three-Tec also offers machines according to GMP, FDA, and / or ATEX standards upon request.
