Description
The JY-TE series modular twin-screw extrusion system integrates precise residence time distribution with high volumetric efficiency. Built to process formulations ranging from abrasive glass-fiber reinforced engineering plastics to shear-sensitive biodegradable resins, the platform accommodates flexible L/D ratios from 32:1 to 60:1.
Extrusion Principle: Co-rotating intermeshing twin-screw
Throughput Capacity: 200 kg/h to 1500 kg/h (model dependent)
Drive Configuration: Split-flow distribution gearbox paired with AC inverter or servo drive
Modular Assembly: Segmented barrel blocks and interchangeable screw elements mounted on high-strength spline shafts
Product Advantages
High-Torque Transmission: Internal distribution gearboxes utilize 20CrMnMo alloy steel, carburized and precision-ground to DIN grade 6 standards, delivering a specific torque rating of T/A³ >= 11.2 for high-viscosity polymer processing.
Wear-Resistant Metallurgy: Screw elements are manufactured from CPM-10V or W6Mo5Cr4V2 powder metallurgy steel, vacuum hardened to HRC 58-62. Barrel liners feature bimetallic wear-resistant alloy or self-lubricating Ni-based alloy suitable for 60% mineral-filled formulations.
Precise Thermal Management: Cast-aluminum heaters combined with closed-loop soft-water cooling channels and proportional solenoid valves maintain barrel temperature control within +/- 1 deg C across independent heating zones.
Modular Process Flexibility: Segmented barrel units allow flexible positioning of side-feeders, liquid injection ports, and multi-stage vacuum degassing zones to adapt to changing polymer chemistry.

Electrical Control System: Siemens S7-1200/1500 PLC with a 15-inch industrial HMI touchscreen; multi-loop PID temperature regulation and hardware safety interlocks.
Drive Protection: Direct coupling via high-rigidity mechanical torque limiter to protect downstream components against unexpected material blockages.
Applications & Verified Performance Case Metrics
Engineering Plastics Compounding: Glass-fiber reinforcement, mineral filling, and flame-retardant modification of PA6, PA66, PC, ABS, PBT, and PP.
Operational Baseline: JY-65B processing 30% glass-fiber reinforced PA6 yields a steady output of 650 kg/h with a specific energy consumption of 0.21 kWh/kg.
Masterbatch Production: High-concentration color masterbatch, carbon black masterbatch, and functional additive masterbatch requiring intensive distributive and dispersive mixing.
Biodegradable Resins: Reactive extrusion and compounding of PLA, PBAT, PHA, and starch-based thermoplastic matrices requiring strict melt temperature control.
Cable Compounds: Halogen-free flame-retardant (HFFR) polyolefin cable materials and cross-linkable polyethylene (XLPE) formulations.
Customization Capabilities
Screw Geometry Customization: Tailored shearing blocks, kneading element angles (0 deg, 30 deg, 45 deg, 60 deg, 90 deg), and distributive mixing elements matched to required shear-rate thresholds.
Feeding & Venting Modules: Integration of volumetric or gravimetric twin-screw side feeders, liquid injection gear pumps, atmospheric venting ports, and multi-stage vacuum degassing pumps with liquid ring traps.
Downstream Pelletizing Integration: Complete pelletizing lines including strand water-bath cooling, air-cooling hot face cutting, underwater pelletizing, and water-ring pelletizing systems.
Manufacturing, Quality Control & Compliance
Machining Tolerances: Barrel bores are precision-honed and ground to a cylindricity tolerance within 0.015 mm. Screw element profiles are machined on 5-axis CNC grinding centers to maintain consistent intermeshing clearances.
Non-Destructive Testing (NDT): Critical drive shafts, gearbox housing castings, and pressure-bearing barrels undergo ultrasonic testing (UT) and magnetic particle inspection (MT) to screen for internal material defects.
Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT): Every assembled extruder undergoes a mandatory 4-hour dry-run test at maximum design speed to verify bearing temperature stability, vibration amplitude (< 2.5 mm/s), and electrical safety interlocks before dispatch (available via live virtual inspection for international clients).
International Standards & Certification: Built in strict accordance with ISO 9001 quality management protocols. All electrical panels and control architectures carry CE certification compliance, meeting EU industrial machinery safety directives.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the typical service life of screw elements and barrels?
A: Service life depends directly on the abrasiveness of the compound. For standard 30% glass-fiber reinforced PA6, nitrided steel elements typically last 4,000 to 6,000 hours, while powder metallurgy elements (CPM-10V) extend operational life to 12,000–18,000 hours under identical conditions.
Q: How is melt temperature managed during high-shear compounding?
A: Melt temperature is controlled through optimized screw flight geometry to minimize viscous dissipation, high-efficiency barrel core-cooling channels, and multi-zone independent barrel temperature regulation.
Q: Can existing extrusion lines be retrofitted with Jiuyi side-feeders or vacuum ports?
A: Yes. Modular barrel sections allow the addition of side-feeders or venting ports to existing lines, provided the overall L/D ratio and drive torque limits accommodate the additional process load.
Q: What technical documentation ships with the equipment?
A: Each machine includes comprehensive English documentation, including mechanical assembly drawings, electrical schematics, PLC address lists, pneumatic diagrams, material test certificates, CE compliance declarations, and operation manuals.
