Cooling conveyor belt for extrudates and granules
In industrial settings where extrudates and granules are produced, managing the product temperature efficiently during post-extrusion processes can be challenging. Achieving that balance is crucial to maintaining product quality and preventing damage
Removes and cools extrudates efficiently
The cooling conveyor belt from Three-Tec provides efficient cooling for extrudates and granules. The conveyor is equipped with actively cooled elements on which the belt rests. It also features air connections in the lid for additional air cooling. Its belt speed is adjustable between 0 and 20 m/min, controlled through an integrated frequency converter or directly via the Three-Tec extruder control system. The belt is made of silicone or PTFE, ensuring durability under various temperature conditions. The system offers a cooling capacity of 1.2 kW with a flow rate of 35 l/min. With a configurable length (2,000 mm), width (300 mm), and adjustable height (600 to 900 mm), the belt can operate continuously at temperatures ranging from -30 to 150 °C and handle short-term temperature spikes from -50 to 180 °C, with a maximum product temperature of 300 °C
