Segmented Screws and Barrels

Former produces almost all types of barrels used in injection molding or extrusion processes. While the injection barrels must be resistant to high injection pressure, extrusion barrels may require the use of degassing type barrels to take volatiles out and the use of grooved feeding systems for difficult-to-feed materials. Our designs meet these requirements and correct material selection and the proper hardening, coating technics will provide optimum lifetime efficiency. High quality plastic products requires well designed and precisely manufactured screws. Former’s experience in design, engineering capabilities and CNC controlled up- to- date production line provides production of variety of complex screw geometries with the tightest tolerances. Additionally, Former can advise screw designs which would meet your requirements in the highest level. Related to your process conditions, standard nitrided, through hardened or bimetallic material option, whichever best meets your requirements, is advised
