RX-120 Micro Extruder
RX-120 With Optional mount

This equipment has been designed for extruding small quantities of hot polymers, for the purpose of making small strands or fibres. The equipment is capable of high pressures and very fine and precise flow rates. Operated by a touch screen, the machine can be run via speed based extrusion or run via selected constant pressure extrusion.

The Extruder can extrude on any angle from the vertical plane to the horizontal plane.

A handy machine for research and fibre making of materials in the laboratory!

For more information, see specifications chart in Product Details.

Features

Key Features:

  • Full PID temperature control – Ambient to 300C
  • Constant speed or constant pressure extrusion control
    (Plunger Speed Rates, Variable; 0.03 mm/min to 100mm/min)
  • Touchscreen operating panel
  • High-resolution control allows accurate control of micro extruding and operating pressures up to 1000 Bar to be developed.
  • With Syringe/Plunger sizes from 4mm to 12mm diameter meaning you can process materials batch volumes from as little as 0.1cc to 10cc.

The extruder comes complete with:

  • Digital touch screen controls
