E.E: What are the most innovative products marketed?
TAKIMSAN: The planetary system consists of a hollow barrel, the main spindle (screw), and several satellite spindles (screws) which work harmoniously with each other enabling the best-known mixing and plastification. The very efficient Planetary Extruders on PVC achieved great success in the pellets (granulated raw material) production. The biggest advantage of the Planetary Extruders is to ensure excellent plastification and homogeneous mixing of raw materials thereby eliminating all the eventual problems i.e. degassing during further processing and extrusions. We complete the entire mechanical parts production and electronic assembly of the extruders at our factory where we also manufacture complete planetary gearboxes. The planetary gearboxes produced by our company assure substantial electric power savings and a higher power transfer ratio compared to other traditional gearbox designs
