Our Goals
We aim to ensure companies have access to the materials and compounds needed to meet their end-use application requirements. Our state-of-the-art facility is designed from the ground up to accommodate the entire process so you get the most out of your investment.
Product Development Trials
The Polymers Technology Center helps industry-leading manufacturers test new products and specialty compounds, research new resin and additive combinations, and optimize production processes.
For trials, we can use laboratory-scale equipment. This provides the user the flexibility to work with small amounts of material. The process can be scaled up to larger production as the material becomes more refined.
Extruder Screw Design
Twin screw extruders are modular in design so the process can be optimized by not only varying the run conditions but also optimizing the screw design, the barrel configuration, and feed locations of the components. Our Charlotte, NC facility is staffed by engineers and technicians who work closely with your team to develop the best screw design for each product you need.
Our experts know how to configure a wide array of screw designs and types specifically for your product. With our wide inventory of screw designs, there are an array of configurations and flexible options available. We can handle a broader range of materials and processes, which makes us the ideal investment for more industries.
