TSE 30
Haisi
Nanjing Haisi Extrusion Equipment Co., Ltd. proudly presents the TSE-30 lab-scale twin-screw extruder. This highly versatile testing machine is engineered for universities, research institutes, and corporate R&D departments. Equipped with a precision side feeder and a reliable water strand pelletizing system, this compact compounding line provides exceptional flexibility for testing and developing an incredibly wide range of polymer formulations.
TSE-30 Twin Screw Host: Features a modular clamshell or standard barrel design with interchangeable screw elements, allowing researchers to adjust the shear rate and mixing efficiency according to different testing requirements.
Precision Side Feeder: A crucial addition for advanced R&D. The side feeder allows for the flexible introduction of various powder fillers, glass fibers, or heat-sensitive additives downstream, preventing material degradation and expanding your testing capabilities.
Water Strand Pelletizing System: The industry standard for reliable lab testing. It includes a cooling water bath, an air knife for efficient drying, and a precision lab-scale pelletizer to produce clean, uniform granules ready for further material property analysis.
Ultimate Versatility: Designed as a universal testing platform, this line can process almost any type of thermoplastic compounding task, from basic color matching to complex engineering plastic modifications.
High Formulation Flexibility: The combination of the twin-screw main feed and the dedicated side feeder means you can experiment with unlimited recipe variations and filler ratios in a single compact setup.
Cost-Effective R&D: Optimized for low-throughput testing, significantly reducing the waste of expensive raw materials, special additives, and energy during the trial-and-error phase of new product development.
Easy Cleaning & Maintenance: The system is engineered for quick changeovers, allowing operators to clean the screw elements and barrel rapidly between different material batches to prevent cross-contamination.
Thanks to its flexible configuration, the TSE-30 is suitable for testing:
General color matching and masterbatch R&D
Various inorganic filler compounding (Talc, CaCO3, etc.)
Engineering plastics blending and modification
Glass fiber or carbon fiber reinforcement tests
Recycled polymer upcycling trials
New additive formulation and dispersion testing
A: Water strand pelletizing is the most versatile and user-friendly method for R&D environments. It allows lab technicians to visually monitor the melt strength, cooling rate, and strand stability in real time. The equipment is straightforward to operate, highly reliable, and easily handles a massive variety of standard thermoplastics used in material testing.
A: The side feeder is critical for developing advanced composite materials. Instead of feeding abrasive fillers (like calcium carbonate) or fragile reinforcements (like glass fiber) into the main hopper, the side feeder introduces them directly into the melted polymer downstream. This replicates professional industrial setups, reduces early screw wear, and strictly prevents glass fibers from being crushed during the initial melting phase.
A: Yes. In a laboratory or teaching setting, you often need to run multiple different batches in a single day. The water strand pelletizing line is incredibly easy to string up and clean. Combined with the modular screw design of the TSE-30, operators can quickly purge the system, dismantle screw elements for manual cleaning, and prepare for the next formulation with minimal downtime and zero cross-contamination.
A: Absolutely. The TSE-30 is engineered with the exact same geometric L/D ratios and thermodynamic principles as high-capacity industrial twin-screw extruders. The dispersion quality, torque readings, and temperature profiles you achieve with this lab machine can be directly and accurately scaled up to commercial manufacturing lines.
A: This configuration is highly adaptable. With the aggressive mixing of the twin-screw extruder, the targeted addition from the side feeder, and the reliable cooling of the water strand bath, it effortlessly processes color masterbatches, filler masterbatches, glass fiber reinforced engineering plastics, and various polymer blends.
