Adhesives

The challenges of adhesive extrusion

Everything is perfectly coordinated: more and more adhesive manufacturers are turning to the principles embodied by the ENTEX Planetary Roller Extruder (PRE). Thanks to their modularity, these Planetary Roller Extruders can perform all the process steps required for adhesive production and incorporate the batch processes that are still commonly used into a continuous process.

  • PSA (solvent-free)

    When it comes to successfully producing and compounding PSA, there are a number of decisive factors: the targeted meltability of different formulation components, the precise control of reactions, an extruded material of equal homogeneity and viscosity, effective cooling of the adhesive mass and high degassing quality to optimise subsequent processing.

  • Hot-melt (solvent-free)

    When it comes to successfully producing and compounding hot-melt adhesives, there are a number of decisive factors: the targeted meltability of different formulation components, extremely short compounding times of just a few minutes, an extruded material of equal homogeneity, a low-shear and material-friendly compounding process, and effective cooling over a…

Is the investment worth your while?

It certainly is. Due to the fact that the viscosity of adhesives is greatly reduced when they are melted, blisters can form very quickly during processing. As a result of its high degassing performance and good temperature properties, our extruder delivers blister-free results even at high throughputs.

High throughput

Depending on recipes the TP-WE 150 Planetary Roller Extruder can process more than 1,500 kg in just one hour.

Improved product quality

High degassing performance ensures the blister-free extrusion of adhesives.

Simplified process changes

The modular extruder can be adapted for new processes.

A secure investment

We can ensure that your extruder enjoys a long service life with excellent product support.
