Italy-based Bausano & Figli S.p.A. says its Nextmover line of twin-screw extruders are ready for delivery, equipped with a multidrive system, which it says offers maximum efficiency and longevity of mechanical components.
Bausano, a designer and producer of customized extrusion lines for the transformation of plastic materials, says its patented multidrive transmission is the result of years of research and experimentation.
The system features four shafts, each governed by a motor. “This composition ensures that the torque stress is distributed over four points, in favor of lower stresses on the drive shaft, screws and gears, and higher torque for less power installed on each motor," the company says, adding that the resulting benefits include reduced risk of failure, increased average life of the machine itself and low energy consumption.
“Multidrive makes it possible to decrease the stress suffered by the material during the machining process,” Bausano adds. “With this technology, the superior torque returned allows operation at lower temperatures, achieving gentle gelation.”
In the U.S., Bausano has locations in Houston and in Oswego, Illinois.
“The pivotal pillar of [our] research and development activity is the combination of state-of-the-art technologies and our technical know-how, which can enhance them,” says Giorgio Critelli, U.S. sales director. “Our lines have the ability to ensure significant competitive advantages, in terms of production and energy efficiency.”
Bausano's is used for the extrusion of pipes, granules, profiles and wood plastic composites for a variety of applications. The company points to its Nextmover dual-screw extruder line when referring to itself as an expert in designing and producing extrusion lines for recycling all polyvinyl chloride materials.
