KLJ Experimental Vacuum Extruder Machine for Clay and Ceramic Material Processing
The Experimental Vacuum Extruder Machine (Models KLJ150 & KLJ250) is engineered for clay extrusion testing, ceramic raw material processing, and small-scale production
Key Features:
- High Output: Processing capacity from 300 kg/h to 800 kg/h.
- Versatile Extrusion: Supports max extrusion dimensions up to 300 mm (W) × 200 mm (H).
- High-Pressure Vacuuming: 2.5 MPa extrusion pressure ensures optimal material density.
- Durable & Reliable: Heavy-duty build with total power up to 20 kW (18.5+1.5 kW) for continuous operation.
The Experimental Vacuum Extruder Machine is designed for clay material extrusion testing, ceramic raw material processing, and small-scale production applications. It provides a practical solution for manufacturers, research facilities, and brick production enterprises that need to test material extrusion performance and evaluate production processes before expanding to full-scale manufacturing.
Available in two models, KLJ150 and KLJ250, this machine offers different extrusion capacities to meet various experimental and processing requirements. With a maximum extrusion pressure of 2.5 MPa, it supports the extrusion of prepared clay and other suitable plastic raw materials into continuous shapes.
The compact structure and different capacity options make the experimental vacuum extruder suitable for laboratory testing, process development, equipment evaluation, and small-batch material production.
Key Features of the Experimental Vacuum Extruder
1. Two Models for Different Processing Requirements
The machine is available in KLJ150 and KLJ250 configurations, allowing users to select the appropriate model according to their material testing requirements and expected output.
-
KLJ150: Suitable for smaller-scale extrusion experiments, with a rated output of 300 kg/h.
-
KLJ250: Offers a higher processing capacity of 800 kg/h, suitable for larger experimental operations and small-scale production.
2. Stable Extrusion Performance
With a maximum extrusion pressure of 2.5 MPa, the equipment is designed to provide the required extrusion force for properly prepared clay and other suitable materials.
The extrusion width and height can accommodate different material forming requirements, depending on the selected model and die configuration.
3. Compact Equipment Structure
Compared with large industrial extrusion systems, the experimental vacuum extruder features a relatively compact machine structure. It can be integrated into material testing areas, pilot production facilities, and existing clay processing workshops.
4. Practical Application in Material Testing
The machine can be used to evaluate raw material plasticity, extrusion behavior, forming conditions, and processing suitability. These tests help manufacturers understand material characteristics and optimize production parameters before investing in larger production equipment.
