Modeling Devolatilization in Single- and Multi-Screw Extruders

Modeling Devolatilization in Single- and Multi-Screw Extruders

Vented single- and multi-screw extruders are widely used to remove undesirable residual volatile components from highly viscous polymer melts. To increase devolatilization efficiency, a thorough understanding of the transport phenomena governing the separation process...

Cost- and time savings with structured analysis methods

Cost- and time savings with structured analysis methods

Structured analysis methods for design processes of complex mechatronic systems are the basis for the improvement of engineering processes. As a “follow up project” of the ACCM research project SyMMDe, such an analysis was applied to the industrial example of the bid...
