LCI Corporation products

The Multi Granulator MG-55 is a bench-scale, single screw extruder. The MG-55 is capable of extruding wetted powders into granules ranging from 0.6mm to 8.0mm in diameter.

An LCI agitated thin film evaporator (TFE) or wiped film evaporator (WFE or "wiffe") provides short residence time and open, low pressure drop configuration, allowing continuous, reliable processing of many heat sensitive, viscous, or fouling materials without product degradation.

Short Path Evaporation is a specialized process for gently processing heat sensitive, high boiling products, utilizing an internal condenser and Wiped Film rotor technology.

LCI High Viscosity Processors utilize transported thin film technology to evaporate products in the viscosity range of 50,000 to 15,000,000 cP. By applying transported flow rotor designs, High Viscosity Processors are capable of finishing various polymers, resins, and plastics, concentrating highly viscous food products, initiating and devolatizing various reactions, and processing various other viscous separations. High heat and mass transfer rates, combined with continuous, reliable operation make LCI High Viscosity Processors the perfect evaporation solution.

LCI`s Pelleting technology is based on Amandus Kahl`s Flat Die pellet mills. LCI is the exclusive representative of Amandus Kahl in the United States for Chemical/Industrial applications. The Kahl pellet press (pellet mill) is used in many applications throughout the chemical, plastics, ceramics, beverage, and other industries. Material enters the pellet press by gravity and is pressed by rollers through a flat die plate to form dense uniform cylinders. Product densification is varied by adjusting the compression distance in the die.

The patented Twin Dome Granulator (TDG) Extruder offers high capacity twin screw extrusion through a hemi-spherical die that allows for uniform extrusion pressure and shear

Batch Kneaders are used for mixing powders and liquids to form a homogeneous wet mass, ideal for downstream processes requiring consistent moisture levels.

The Marumerizer™ spheronizer from LCI converts wet pellets into spheres of your desired size, ranging from 0.5mm to 10.0mm in diameter.
