System Layout
Newly developed engineering plastic materials and their compounding processes mean the kind of materials fed into an extruder are always increasing. In the past, two or more kinds of materials were pre-blended by mixer and supplied to a feeder.
However, due to the emergence of high performance feeders, direct feeding of several kinds of materials is recently becoming common and generally accepted.
