ADVANTAGESOVERCONVENTIONALPLATFORMS
01
02
03
Up to 25%* more production capacity due
to increased volume and torqueability.
The High free volume leads to higher
throughput.
Improved process efficiency and quality*
due to patented special elements with
‘fractional-lobe’ geometry, that allow for
higher conveying capacity, uniform shear,
and extensional flow.
Reduced energy dissipation* due to a
narrower, sharper residence time
distribution
04
05
06
Better control* over kneading, stirring and
shear to give manufacturers the capability
to work with low-bulk density and shearsensitive materials
Improved conveying efficiency, greater
ROI and minimised downtime* due to
self-wiping elements that prevent
stagnation and degradation.
Controlled processing with higher
required mean shear, reduction in total
shear as well as controlled residence time
