{"product_id":"eckbvctsme","title":"ECS-CK Benchtop Vertical Conical Twin-Screw Micro-Extruder, ECKBVCTSME","description":"\u003cp\u003e A Benchtop Vertical Conical Twin-Screw Micro-Extruder represents the ultimate evolution in ultra-low-volume polymer compounding, rheological screening, and nanocomposite formulation. Building directly upon the architecture of standard benchtop conical units, a micro-extruder variant is specifically scaled down for microgram-to-gram scale sample sizes (typically 2 to 5 grams up to 15 grams max), making it an indispensable tool for advanced materials R\u0026amp;D, pharmaceutical hot-melt extrusion (HME), and precious additive blending.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe main technical features of twin-screw micro-extruder are: (1) \u003cstrong\u003eProcessing Batch Volume\u003c\/strong\u003e: Ultra-low capacity, ranging from 2 mL to 15 mL, designed specifically to handle scarce or expensive experimental formulations. (2) \u003cstrong\u003eTapered Intermeshing Screw Geometry\u003c\/strong\u003e: Conical co-rotating or counter-rotating twin screws that step down from a wider feed diameter (e.g., ~15–20 mm) to a narrow discharge tip (~5–8 mm). This geometry maintains high shear rates and intensive distributive\/dispersive mixing even as the material volume compresses. (3)\u003cstrong\u003e Vertical Architecture\u003c\/strong\u003e: Gravity-assisted vertical feed throat and vertical barrel alignment, minimizing laboratory bench footprint and ensuring smooth feeding of fine powders, flakes, or masterbatches. (4) \u003cstrong\u003eTemperature Range\u003c\/strong\u003e: Ambient to 450°C (capable of processing high-performance engineering thermoplastics, fluoropolymers, and specialized biopolymers), governed by multi-zone PID temperature controllers. (5)\u003cstrong\u003e Variable Speed \u0026amp; High Torque\u003c\/strong\u003e: Precision servo drives with robust gearboxes providing adjustable screw speeds from 1 to 250 RPM, delivering high torque output to handle viscous melts under confined clearance conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable width=\"100%\" style=\"height: 201.2px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 35.6px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 17.9856%; height: 35.6px;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003ePart Number\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 81.6547%; height: 35.6px;\"\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eECKBVCTSME (ECK-BVCTSME)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 17.9856%;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003ePower\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 81.6547%;\"\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAC220V±10%, single phase, 50\/60Hz, 1000 W \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 35.6px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 17.9856%; height: 35.6px;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eMain Features\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 81.6547%; height: 35.6px;\"\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConical shape, Twin-screw (S136 Die Steel), changeable thread pitch and diameter \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e          \u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0774\/6591\/1526\/files\/ECKBVCTSME_07_100x100.jpg?v=1792779853\" alt=\"\" style=\"float: none;\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProcessing Material Types: powder, particle, and solvent \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProcessing Material Amount: 5-15 g\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExtrusion Volume: 15 mL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMixing Chamber: Open up to 180° plane \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeating Zone Temperature: \u003cspan\u003eRT-450\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e°C\u003c\/span\u003e (independent control in six zones)\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInert environment in extrusion chamber for air-sensitive polymer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIn-real-time monitoring of temperature (six-independent temperature control zones) and torque \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 17.9856%;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eFunction Integration (\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(255, 42, 0);\"\u003eOptional\u003c\/span\u003e)\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 81.6547%;\"\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe micro-extruder can be integrated with various systems, such as melting spinning unit, tape casting unit, injection unit, and pelletizing unit to accommodate various applications.  \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e        \u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0774\/6591\/1526\/files\/ECKBVCTSME_03_160x160.jpg?v=1792778585\" alt=\"\" style=\"float: none;\"\u003e  \u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0774\/6591\/1526\/files\/ECKBVCTSME_05_160x160.jpg?v=1792779374\" alt=\"\" style=\"float: none;\" width=\"143\" height=\"83\"\u003e    \u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0774\/6591\/1526\/files\/ECKBVCTSME_06_160x160.jpg?v=1792779374\" alt=\"\" style=\"float: none;\" width=\"127\" height=\"93\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 17.9856%;\"\u003e\u003ci\u003eDimension\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 81.6547%;\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eL580 * W360 * H780 mm (glovebox-compatible)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 17.9856%;\"\u003e\u003ci\u003eWeight\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 81.6547%;\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e~60 kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReferences\u003c\/strong\u003e:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/4spepublications.onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/full\/10.1002\/pen.70031\"\u003eK.
