X-COMPOUND Applications

The unique mode of operation of Continuous Kneaders allows for a gentle preparation of demanding compounds. If a compound is temperature sensitive, shear sensitive, or highly filled, Continuous Kneaders are a perfect choice. The unique mixing principle also provides broad processing windows in combination with low wear rates.

X-COMPOUND Technology

Due to the modular design of the complete processing section, it is possible to optimize the setup just for your application. As demanding applications require accurate process monitoring, it is our standard to provide
multiple thermocouples installed in the mixing pins for the accurate measurement of the product temperature.

SPARE PARTS

We support the operation of 3-flight Continuous Kneaders worldwide by providing a full range of spare parts, most of them immediately available from our extensive stock in Hanover, Germany and Kaisten, Switzerland. Our customers appreciate the short lead times and our reliable delivery.

Beside short-term delivery of spare parts, we develop long-term maintenance strategies with our customers, which include tailored spare part packages and consignment stocks at numerous TROESTER locations around the world. This service can also supplemented by various predictive and preventive maintenance measures.
