Extrusion is a versatile and widely applied processing technology, but its success depends heavily on the design of the screw profile. In twin screw extrusion, the screw profile is not a single component—it is a functional system composed of multiple screw elements assembled on the screw shaft.
Each screw element performs a specific role, and the sequence and combination of these elements are determined by:
Material flow behavior
Processing temperature
Shear rate requirements
Extruder geometry and operating conditions
Because different materials exhibit fundamentally different rheological properties, there is no universal or 'gold standard' screw design that works for all applications.
| Item | Description |
|---|---|
| Screw Type | Modular twin screw elements |
| Design Basis | Material behavior and process conditions |
| Assembly Method | Axial assembly on screw shaft |
| Element Functions | Conveying, mixing, shearing, residence control |
| Applicable Industries | Rubber, plastics, metals, food, feed |
| Materials | Tool steel, PM-HIP alloys, corrosion-resistant alloys |
| Customization | Available based on application |
| Manufacturer | ZHITIAN |

The design of a screw profile is a balance between engineering principles and practical processing experience. Factors such as material viscosity, thermal sensitivity, and shear tolerance must be considered simultaneously.
By selecting and arranging different functional screw elements, engineers can:
Control material conveying behavior
Adjust residence time and pressure buildup
Regulate shear intensity and mixing efficiency
Adapt the screw profile to specific extrusion goals
ZHITIAN applies long-term application experience and process-oriented design logic to develop screw element configurations tailored to real production conditions rather than theoretical assumptions.
Application-specific twin screw screw elements are widely used in:
Rubber and elastomer processing
Plastic compounding and modification
Metal powder extrusion
Food and feed extrusion
Chemical and reactive extrusion processes
They are suitable for both pilot-scale development and continuous industrial production.
Process-driven design: Screw configurations based on material and process needs
High adaptability: Suitable for diverse extrusion applications
Modular flexibility: Easy adjustment and optimization of screw profiles
Stable processing: Improved consistency and product quality
Engineering-backed solutions: Design combines theory with real-world experience
Screw elements should be selected based on material properties, temperature sensitivity, shear requirements, and extruder geometry.
No. Each material behaves differently, making application-specific screw configuration essential.
Material temperature, shear rate, flow behavior, and machine geometry all play critical roles.
Rubber, plastics, food, feed, chemical, and metal extrusion industries benefit significantly from tailored screw designs.
