Forming / Granulation / Extrusion
Extrusion Forming Capabilities
- Our J C Steele vacuum extruder is a highly versatile machine that can mix and form a wide variety of materials suitable for further processing or to sinter
- Plastic Materials
- Clays and clay mixes
- Fine-grained filter cakes with moderate plasticity arising from small particle size
- Non-Plastics with appropriate binders
- Binders may be
- Aqueous or non-aqueous
- Organic or inorganic
- Short List of non-plastic materials that can be processed
- Aluminum oxides and other technical ceramic powders
- Mine waste (tailings)
- Non-oxide minerals and ceramics
- Mineral of all types
- Many others
- Binders may be
- Profile shape extrusions can be produced with the proper die, or the material can be shredded to sizes convenient for handling
- Extrusions may be tailored for high, medium, or low density with vacuum capability.
- Plastic Materials
- IntoCeramics has the knowledge and ability to process your materials for extrusion forming by drying, milling, and pre-mixing as well as complete processing after extrusion including physical material characterization, analytical testing, and thermal processing.
The IntoCeramics extruder is suited for testing of a few pounds but can be configured to produce larger quantities if needed.
