High Performance Plasticating Barrels
High Performance Plasticating Barrels
Technical Specifications at a Glance
Detailed technical specifications for our high performance plasticating barrels engineered for precision and durability.
Why High Performance Plasticating Barrels?
Md Plastics offers high performance barrel construction options for corrosion and abrasion wear process environments. Upon application review our technical sales staff carefully selects the optimum barrel bore compatible with the feed screw, resin and application process.
Barrel options are available for injection molding, extrusion, blow molding, LSR, 3-D print and rubber machinery groups. Our size capabilities range in size from 14MM (0.551 IN) to 250MM (9.84 IN) ID bore size with a maximum length of 6604 mm (260IN).
A bimetallic cylinder commonly referred to as a barrel consists of two different metals bonded together. The ID liner is a metallic alloy designed to form a hard abrasion and corrosion wear resistant liner. The outer backing steel material is constructed of high strength steel alloys. Liners are bound into the ID through centrifugal casting, sintering and interference fit methods. When required Injection barrels are fitted with high-pressure sleeves at the discharge end.
Engineered for Maximum Performance
Our plasticating barrels deliver superior durability, efficiency, and precision for all your injection molding and extrusion needs.
Bimetallic Construction
Two different metals bonded together create an inseparable liner with uniform coverage down the entire length of the cylinder bore for maximum durability.
Precision Honing
Close tolerance fit precision honing ensures optimal performance with your screw and process material for maximum efficiency in energy transfer.
Wear Resistance
Hard abrasion and corrosion wear resistant liner maximizes life, performance and compatibility in demanding processing environments.
High Strength
Outer backing made from high strength steel alloys provides maximum strength and pressure rating for enhanced process control and safety.
Enhanced Efficiency
Superior design improves processor competitiveness through maximum efficiency in energy transfer and better process control capabilities.
Cost Effective
Reasonably priced solution that maximizes performance and extends equipment life while providing excellent return on investment.
