Celebrating its 85th Anniversary, a German press builder has continually revolutionised the shaping of powdered ceramics, metals, and plastics, using advanced isostatic presses and extruders.
The continuous piston extruder, or Model CPE has overcome the last obstacle when comparing the piston extruder to the screw extruder.
With this machine, production can be continuous in operation, with the additional advantage of: * Low maintenance costs.
* Low wear of piston and piston nose even when pressing abrasive materials.
* Minimal contamination of material through wear of piston and piston nose.
* No structural defects in the product from the press process.
* Problem free pressing of porous materials which are not capable of handling shear stresses.
* No pulsation of the material.
* No back extrusion of the material.
* Very high extrusion pressures.
* Easy cleaning without large amounts of material loss.
* Less moisture required in the pressing medium, therefore reducing the drying time and the deformation of the product.
Loomis has once again achieved a first in the field of engineering for the shaping of ceramics, refractory, metals and plastics.
