Biopolymers
The use of biopolymers is an emerging trend. New compositions and properties are continuously being developed. Many different processes are used in their production depending on the additives. The feeding of natural fibers is particularly sensitive, and Kubota Brabender Technologie has developed special solutions for dealing with these fibers.
Possible feeder
- FW, DSR, FX, DDSR
Films
Feeders play an essential role in production of film, as it is necessary to feed extruders that can produce films for packaging, windows or coatings. Typically, the material is from pellet stock, but can also be film edge trim or shredder scrap from recycling processes.
Possible feeder
- FX, DS, FW, DDSR
Cable Compounds
Flame-retardant cable-compounds (HFFR) are manufactured through extrusion and kneading processes. This requires precise feeding of fillers, additives and plasticizers.
Possible feeder
- FW, DSR, FDDW
Masterbatch
Kubota Brabender Technologie has the ideal feeders for pigmenting and reinforcing compounds. Pigments, polymers, fibers, and more must be fed during the manufacturing process.
Possible feeder
- FW, DDSR, DSR
Engineering Plastics
Engineering plastics, such as polyamids (PA), polycarbonates (PC), polyethylene terephthalate (PET), PBT, POM, PS or ABS have high strength and durability, and are therefore very much in demand in agriculture or the automotive industry.
Possible feeder
- FW, DVT, DDSR
