Granulation & Pelletizing Equipment and Systems
Horizontal Pelletizing Extruder
Radial screw extruder for producing cylindrical extrudates through perforated screens
In this horizontal extrusion system, the pre-mixed wet mass is driven by a screw feeder into the extrusion chamber, where it is compressed through a perforated screen to form dense, uniform cylindrical strands of varying lengths. The extruder is composed of a motor, gearbox, transmission assembly, feed hopper, screw feeder, extrusion chamber, perforated plate, screw cap, control system, and a rigid support frame.

Features
- Flexible product sizing
Equipped with multiple interchangeable perforated screens for producing cylindrical extrudates ranging from 0.5mm to 3.0mm in diameter. - Low-shear radial extrusion Compared with single-screw extruders, the radial screw design applies less shear force, minimizing friction and heat generation. This enhances plastic deformation while maintaining the stability of heat-sensitive materials during processing.
- Thermal adaptability The extruder can be equipped with a cooling or heating jacket to meet the specific requirements of different material types.
For powder processing, we also provide a one-stop solution.
Is the equipment suitable for powders or granules used in pharmaceutical, food, or chemical production?
Is the equipment suitable for powders or granules used in pharmaceutical, food, or chemical production?
The powder processing and palletizing equipment is widely used in pharmaceutical, food, and chemical applications. Selection can be made based on material type (e.g. wet, dry, or fragile), flowability, and target throughput. Based on these parameters, a suitable model and configuration are recommended for the intended process.
Can the equipment handle high-temperature, viscous, flammable, explosive, or corrosive materials?
Can the equipment handle high-temperature, viscous, flammable, explosive, or corrosive materials?
Our powder handling equipment can be built using high-temperature-resistant, corrosion-resistant, and explosion-proof designs. Typical options include 316L stainless steel construction, PTFE sealing, explosion-proof motors, and nitrogen inerting systems.
Does the equipment comply with GMP requirements?
Does the equipment comply with GMP requirements?
Our powder processing machines are designed in line with GMP requirements. Product-contact surfaces can be supplied in SS304 or SS316L with polished finishes down to Ra ≤ 0.4 μm, suitable for installation in clean production areas.
Can the production line be customized to match specific output targets and plant layout constraints?
Can the production line be customized to match specific output targets and plant layout constraints?
Complete lines can be tailored, including equipment footprint, capacity range, and inlet/outlet height, to achieve direct integration into existing processes.
Can electrical specifications and control systems match local standards in different countries?
Can electrical specifications and control systems match local standards in different countries?
Voltage and frequency can be supplied according to regional standards (for example 220 V / 380 V / 415 V, 50 Hz / 60 Hz). Control systems can include PLC and HMI with Siemens or Schneider electrical components.
