Continuous manufacturing of amorphous solid dispersions in a twin-screw extruder is well-suited to quality by design processes such as defining design space. The continuous process of hot-melt ...

The extrusion division of the Society of Plastics Engineers and the chapter representing the Eastern New England section are offering a new screw design conference called Topcon. The two-day gathering ...

Wet granulation is a size-enlargement process in which a liquid is used to achieve the agglomeration of solid particles. Agglomeration improves particles' tableting properties by rendering them ...

Pharmaceutical manufacturing practices are advancing towards a future in which continuous manufacturing processes will be the norm. Developing and applying such techniques is therefore an essential ...

A lot of great ideas happen in the middle of the night, and for [Werner] it’s no different. One night he came up with an idea for a new 3D printer extruder, and after a very basic prototype, we’d have ...

Mixing in Single Screw Extruders is a must-have practical guide to the subject of single-screw extrusion. Avoiding mathematical theory, except when absolutely necessary, this authoritative handbook ...

Four models of the TP Series parallel twin-screw extruders come in 93-, 115-, 140-, and 172-mm diameters, with high-torque gearboxes, up to 224-kW motors, and outputs as high as 1800 kg/hr for rigid ...

Atlanta — The plastics materials sector is responding to today's stronger-than-ever "green" momentum by developing bioplastics and beefing up recycled content, both mechanical and chemical. And ...

Extrusion is not only a final forming process for products but is also an intermediate process for many other processes such as injection molding, blowmolding, and blown film. The cost-effective ...
