Extrusion Barrel Segment
Extrusion barrel segments are modular open, closed, venting and side-feed barrels for efficient maintenance of compounding lines. With an integrated cooling channel and a choice of C-type or monobloc sleeves, each piece is easily replaceable and the monobloc sleeve offers high strength and wear resistance.

Frequently Asked Questions
A barrel segment is an individual section of a modular extruder barrel. Multiple segments can be assembled to create different processing zones along the extruder.
Modular segments allow the processing configuration to be changed or individual worn sections to be replaced without necessarily replacing the entire barrel.
The segment must match the extruder's screw diameter, center distance, connection dimensions, processing zone, and material requirements.
Common types include open barrels, closed barrels, vented barrels and side feed barrels.
