Industrial twin screw extruders for high torque and volume applications
In various industrial production settings, manufacturers often face the challenge of choosing between high torque or high volume when selecting an extrusion system. This is particularly pressing in the plastics, pharmaceutical, and food industries, where efficiency and adaptability are key production factors.

Optimize processing with high torque and volume
The twin screw extruders from Leistritz ZSE MAXX series are designed to tackle the dilemma of choosing between high torque and high volume. This series features a notable high specific torque of up to 15 Nm/cm³ combined with a large volume (OD/ID = 1.66). These extruders include a compact, well-thought-out construction that integrates effective cooling and heating systems and high-quality, energy-efficient drives. The screw geometry can be optimally laid out for each processing task, thanks to a modular barrel system and a variety of screw elements. Leistritz Extruders stand out due to their patently high process engineering relevance, meeting stringent requirements across diverse industrial applications.
