Single-Screw Extruder Gear Units

Our single-screw extruder gear units are used in a wide range of extrusion applications — be it for films, sheets or recycled material, but also in the food industry and animal feed production. The outstanding versatility of these gear units means they can be integrated into the extruder in various configurations: vertical or horizontal, Z or U configuration, motor above or below. It is even possible to provide for removing the screw from the rear if desired.

Eisenbeiss single-screw extruder gear units are precisely tailored to individual customer requirements and guarantee maximum efficiency and reliability.

Advantages

Gearbox lubrication system

The carefully designed gearbox lubrication system ensures maximum efficiency and maxi-mum safety in all operating conditions. This is achieved with controlled oil flowrates for each tooth intermesh and bearing.

Life cycle costs

The forced-feed lubrication keeps life cycle costs (total cost of ownership) to a minimum, which makes long-term operation particularly economical.

Reliability

Our single-screw extruder gears are known for their long service life and robustness, even in tough working conditions. They guarantee reliable operation over long periods of time.

Applications

Recycling

Mechanical or chemical recycling of plastics

Food Industry

Production of animal feed (for dogs, cats and other pets), in fish farming and in the production of foodstuffs such as cereals, meat substitutes and pasta.
