The KR-739 micro conical twin-screw compounder is a compact bench-top lab extrusion system tailored for ultra-small batch polymer formulation research. Adopting unique intermeshing conical twin-screw architecture, it supports both co-rotating and counter-rotating operation modes, with minimal material consumption of only 5/10/15 grams per trial cycle, drastically cutting raw material costs for new material screening.
Equipped an integrated circulating reflux channel, the unit precisely controls material residence time inside the barrel to simulate full industrial compounding shear conditions, delivering test data that can be directly scaled up to large twin-screw production lines. It comes with fully modular expansion interfaces, compatible with optional melt spinning, micro cast film and injection molding auxiliary units, forming one-stop lab processing workflows. Widely adopted by university polymer labs, new material R&D centers, automotive material institutes and color masterbatch manufacturers for small-batch mixing, extrusion feasibility verification and rheology characterization.
Core Unique Technical Advantages
Low-Consumption Conical Screw Mixing System
Miniature 5.3/7.4mm dual conical screws made of high-hardness alloy steel (54HRC) achieve full intermeshing uniform shearing. Variable spiral pitch structure effectively avoids high-viscosity polymer backflow and material overflow; built-in recirculation loop enables repeated internal kneading without repeated feeding, greatly improving mixing homogeneity for filled, flame-retardant and composite materials. Only gram-level samples are required for each test, ideal for expensive functional additives and lab trial formulations.
2.Dual Constant Control Modes & Real-Time Rheology Monitoring
Supports two core operation logics: constant rotation speed and constant torque control. The industrial touch HMI synchronously displays real-time screw torque, shear stress, shear rate and barrel multi-zone temperature curves, automatically recording full-process rheology data for subsequent formula performance analysis. Operators freely switch single-cycle kneading, timed circulation and continuous extrusion modes to match diverse test standards.
3.Full Open Barrel Design For Ultra-Fast Cleaning
The barrel assembly can be fully opened 180 degrees after cooling, exposing the complete screw structure without disassembly of complex transmission parts. Operators quickly scrape residual materials with simple tools, eliminating cross-contamination between different formulas; matched water cooling pipeline shortens barrel cooling waiting time between batches and improves daily lab testing throughput.
4.Wide Temperature Range & Corrosion Resistant Structure
Multi-section independent electric heating modules support working temperatures from room temperature up to 350℃, with customized 500℃ high-temperature version for special high-performance polymers. Barrel inner wall treated to 64HRC hardness, resisting strong acid, alkali and abrasion from ceramic, metal powder modified materials, stable long-term operation of corrosive polymer formulas without dimensional deformation.
5.Modular Expandable Multi-Function Workflow
Unified quick-disconnect outlet interface can be matched with supporting auxiliary equipment: micro melt spinning winding unit for fiber preparation, lab cast film stretching unit for thin film forming, small injection mold set for specimen molding. One host realizes compounding, extrusion, spinning and film-making multi-process testing, saving lab equipment investment and countertop space.
6.Compact Desktop Integrated Layout
All-in-one vertical body design with total machine weight only 30kg, standard 220V household power supply without special industrial wiring. Equipped emergency stop button and over-temperature automatic power-off safety interlock, fully meeting the safety operation requirements of university teaching laboratories and enterprise R&D rooms.
Standard Complete Test Operation Workflow
Equipment Preheating & Inspection
Power on the touch control system, set multi-zone barrel temperature according to polymer melting point, wait for temperature stabilization. Open the barrel to check screw cleanliness, confirm no residual material from previous experiments.
Raw Material Feeding & Circulation Setting
Weigh the required gram-level sample and pour into the top feeding hopper, close the barrel locking mechanism. On the touch panel, set screw speed, torque limit and circulation kneading duration, select constant speed or constant torque test mode.
Internal Circulation Kneading Process
Start the drive system; the conical screws convey materials into the reflux channel for cyclic shearing mixing. The host records real-time torque and temperature data automatically, simulating industrial twin-screw compound shear environment.
Continuous Extrusion Molding (Optional)
After reaching preset mixing time, close the circulation channel, switch to continuous extrusion mode. Connect matched auxiliary unit (spinning winding / film casting) to complete fiber, thin film or strip specimen forming.
Data Storage & Curve Export
After finishing testing, stop the screw drive, save the full-process rheology curve and parameter records to local storage, export data via USB for formula comparative analysis and technical report compilation.
Barrel Cleaning & Equipment Shutdown
Cool the barrel to below 80℃, fully open the barrel body to clean screws and inner wall, close heating and power supply after complete cleaning and cooling.
Wide Industrial & Research Application Fields
University & Polymer Research Institutes
New biodegradable material development, carbon fiber/glass fiber reinforced composite formulation screening, functional masterbatch small batch mixing, polymer rheology basic teaching experiments.
