Background Hydraulic screw preloading system

Hydraulic screw preloading system

Auxiliary equipment

Hydraulic preloading gives increased operational reliability

Specifically developed for the ZE BluePower twin-screw extruder series, the hydraulic preloading system ensures reproducible screw installation and preloading. This system subjects the screw shafts only to a defined tensile stress without exerting any torsion load.

Less cleaning required
No melt between the screw part and screw mandril
Reliable preloading of the screw elements
Simple operation
