Mixer/extruder for viscous pastes and plastic masses

Mixes, Kneads, and Extrudes Continuous Batches

The Extrudomix from Hosokawa Micron is a multifunctional mixer-extruder designed for challenging continuous processing needs in chemical, food, and pharmaceutical industries. Combining high shear mixing, kneading, and extrusion in one compact unit, it efficiently turns solid, liquid, and powder inputs into uniform pastes and plastic masses. Featuring a single horizontal shaft with strategically arranged spiral blade segments, it processes materials continuously, ensuring consistent quality and particle dispersion. With capabilities to handle diverse applications such as producing protein bars, plant-based meats, and battery slurries, the Extrudomix integrates seamlessly into existing production lines. Its throughput varies across models, handling up to 4,550 kilograms per hour, with options for heating or cooling jackets tailored to specific process needs. Energy is conserved through an optimized motor system, lowering operational costs. The equipment offers material flexibility with various rotor sizes, enabling customization to specific production requirements. Additionally, it supports both continuous and batch operations, adapting to different production demands.
