ENTEX Rust & Mitschke GmbH products

ENTEX strainers are deployed to reliably remove impurities from plastics, adhesives and rubber compounds. Interchangeable filter screens make it possible to perform rapid cleaning while reducing production downtimes. The ENTEX design features thin walls between the heating/cooling media and the material in the extruder cylinder. This allows for the precise temperature control necessary to process even sensitive materials like PVC and biopolymers.

An all-round solution: Radial pelletising systems from ENTEX. Various types of technical pellets are frequently required as precursor products for the manufacture of all manner of plastics and recycled materials, as well as for food, animal feed, etc. The technical properties required for subsequent processing – such as diameter, length, weight, surface quality, residual moisture, etc. – are determined during the pelletising process.

ENTEX single-screw extruders are often used in conjunction with ENTEX Planetary Roller Extruders as either an upstream or downstream stage in the process. An example of an upstream use is for feeding recyclates, while examples of downstream deployments include pressure build-up and discharge into moulds. As with ENTEX Planetary Roller Extruders, the tempering takes place via fluid media. Thin walls between the tempering medium and the material in the cylinder enable excellent temperature control. Drawing on a wealth of Planetary Roller expertise, special screw geometries have been developed that are especially well suited to degassing volatile substances.
