MAS 24 and 55 laboratory extruders
for material tests

Material sampling and recipe development on a small scale

The MAS 24 and MAS 55 lab­o­ra­to­ry extrud­ers enable the pro­cess­ing of all ther­mo­plas­tics in very small quan­ti­ties. The inno­v­a­tive lab­o­ra­to­ry equip­ment from MAS acts as an ide­al com­pound­ing sys­tem for for­mu­la­tion devel­op­ment, mate­r­i­al sam­pling, incom­ing mate­r­i­al inspec­tion and basic sci­en­tif­ic research. With the MAS 24, the small­est extrud­er in the MAS series, and the larg­er MAS 55 vari­ant, the mate­r­i­al input and the influx of addi­tives are delib­er­ate­ly kept to a min­i­mum with­out com­pro­mis­ing on qual­i­ty. Dis­cov­er the advan­tages of a MAS lab­o­ra­to­ry extrud­er for your­self!

How the laboratory
extruder works

Our MAS 24 lab­o­ra­to­ry extrud­er, with a diam­e­ter of 24 mm at the pro­cess­ing unit, works like a con­ven­tion­al twin-screw extrud­er, but in a com­pact frame. This small­est extrud­er in the series has only a small mate­r­i­al input and an out­put of 15–30 kg — ide­al for test runs and recipe devel­op­ment with­out large amounts of mate­r­i­al. For larg­er quan­ti­ties of mate­r­i­al and fur­ther test runs, the MAS 55 lab­o­ra­to­ry extrud­er with a diam­e­ter of 55 mm on the pro­cess­ing unit is ide­al.

Thanks to the extreme­ly large feed open­ing, the con­i­cal­ly co-rotat­ing twin screw enables the pro­cess­ing of all grind­ing mate­ri­als, but also lighter recy­cling frac­tions such as flakes — a size sim­i­lar to pro­duc­tion plants (< 15 mm). The addi­tives are also added via the large feed open­ing. With the option­al­ly avail­able side feed open­ing for a melt­ing extrud­er, a twin com­pound sys­tem can also be imple­ment­ed on a lab­o­ra­to­ry scale.

How to use the laboratory extruder

The com­pact pro­cess­ing unit and the low through­put make the lab­o­ra­to­ry extrud­er the per­fect test­ing and sam­pling tool. In our tech­ni­cal cen­ter, MAS Aus­tria tests with a MAS 24 lab­o­ra­to­ry extrud­er as well as a MAS 55 for fur­ther tests and larg­er mate­r­i­al quan­ti­ties, allow­ing plas­tic qual­i­ties and addi­tive inflows to be eval­u­at­ed under real­is­tic pro­duc­tion con­di­tions.

All lab­o­ra­to­ry extrud­ers are char­ac­ter­ized by high speed and high qual­i­ty. Set­tings for the devel­op­ment of for­mu­la­tions can be made quick­ly and eas­i­ly, with low mate­r­i­al costs: anoth­er plus point for very expen­sive plas­tics and addi­tives. By ana­lyz­ing the mate­r­i­al input and flow, it is also pos­si­ble to deter­mine whether and how cer­tain plas­tics can be fed into the recy­cling and upcy­cling process, and the MAS 24 and MAS 55 lab­o­ra­to­ry extrud­ers are ide­al­ly suit­ed as pro­duc­tion sys­tems for very expen­sive plas­tics in very small quan­ti­ties.
