About Screw & Barrel Assemblies

Screw and barrel assemblies are precision components used in plastic processing equipment. The rotating screw conveys polymer through the heated barrel, while the screw geometry and barrel design control conveying, melting, mixing, degassing, pressure generation and metering. The correct design depends on polymer type, additives, output requirement, machine configuration and operating conditions.

This catalogue separates the major product families so each product can be specified according to its actual processing purpose.

Single Screw Barrel

02

Single Screw Barrel

Single screw barrels are used with single-screw extruders and injection moulding machines. The screw normally performs feeding, compression/melting, mixing and metering inside a close-clearance barrel.

Typical Applications
  • General-purpose extrusion of PE, PP and other thermoplastics
  • Pipe, profile, sheet, film and pelletizing lines
  • Injection moulding and selected blow-moulding applications
Materials & Construction

Typical construction: nitriding steel such as EN41B / 41CrMoAl7 or equivalent; wear-resistant alloy or bimetallic options can be selected for demanding materials. Exact metallurgy should be matched to the polymer and filler package.

Engineering & Design Considerations

Conventional three-zone, barrier, mixing, decompression or application-specific screw profiles can be supplied. Barrel dimensions, heating/cooling zones, feed section and bore tolerances are machine-specific.

Enquire
Barrier Screw Barrel

03

Barrier Screw Barrel

Barrier screws use a secondary barrier flight in the melting section. The geometry separates solid polymer from molten polymer, helping solids continue melting while melt moves toward the metering channel.

Typical Applications
  • High-output PE/PP extrusion
  • Film, pipe, sheet and profile extrusion
  • Applications where improved melting consistency and reduced unmelt are required
Materials & Construction

Barrier geometry can support higher throughput or improved melt quality, but the design must be optimized for the specific resin and machine.

Engineering & Design Considerations

Typical design considerations include primary and secondary channel depths, barrier clearance, compression ratio, L/D ratio and downstream mixing elements.

Enquire
Twin Screw Barrel – Conical

04

Twin Screw Barrel – Conical

Conical twin screw barrels use two screws whose axes converge. They are widely associated with PVC and profile/pipe extrusion because the conical arrangement provides useful conveying, mixing and pressure-building characteristics.

Typical Applications
  • PVC / UPVC / RPVC pipe extrusion
  • PVC profile extrusion
  • Selected WPC and specialty extrusion
Materials & Construction

Common constructions include nitrided alloy steel and bimetallic or sleeved wear-resistant designs. One supplier lists EN41B and bimetallic constructions for conical twin sets.

Engineering & Design Considerations

Available in machine-specific sizes and center distances. Proper screw/barrel alignment, bore geometry and clearance are essential for service life and processing stability.

Enquire
Twin Screw Barrel – Parallel

05

Twin Screw Barrel – Parallel

Parallel twin screw barrels accommodate two parallel screws and are used where intensive mixing, compounding and high-output processing are required.

Typical Applications
  • Polymer compounding
  • Filled and reinforced compounds
  • Masterbatch and additive dispersion
  • PVC and other extrusion applications
Materials & Construction

Options include nitrided steel, hardened sleeves, HSS sleeves and bimetallic constructions depending on the wear and corrosion environment.

Engineering & Design Considerations

Barrel sections can be configured for conveying, kneading/mixing, melting, venting and pressure build-up. Co-rotating and counter-rotating systems require different screw-element arrangements.

Enquire
Bimetallic Screw Barrel

06

Bimetallic Screw Barrel

Bimetallic barrels use a structural steel outer body with a wear- and/or corrosion-resistant alloy lining. This construction is intended to increase service life under demanding processing conditions.

Typical Applications
  • Abrasive fillers such as glass/mineral-filled polymers
  • Corrosive polymers and additives
  • High-volume production
  • PVC and engineering resin compounding
Materials & Construction

Published manufacturer examples describe HSS-based or tool-steel systems and alloy linings. BR Engineering Works reports bimetallic layer hardness of approximately 55–72 HRC and a 1.5 mm coating thickness for its product.

Engineering & Design Considerations

Bimetallic selection should consider filler loading, polymer chemistry, processing temperature, pressure and expected wear mechanism.

Enquire
Vented / Two-Stage Screw Barrel

07

Vented / Two-Stage Screw Barrel

Vented screws include a decompression or vent section that reduces melt pressure and allows moisture, air or volatile components to be removed through a barrel vent, often under vacuum.

Typical Applications
  • Recycling and reprocessing
  • Moisture-sensitive materials
  • Materials containing volatile components
  • Selected PET, PA and recycled polymer applications
Materials & Construction

The vent zone must be designed so melt does not flood or plug the vent. Vented designs commonly use longer L/D configurations and require correct process conditions.

Engineering & Design Considerations

Important parameters include decompression-zone depth, vent location, downstream conveying capacity, vent-port design and vacuum arrangement.

Enquire
Grooved Feed Screw Barrel

08

Grooved Feed Screw Barrel

Grooved-feed barrels have engineered grooves in the feed section to improve solid conveying by increasing friction between the feedstock and barrel surface.

Typical Applications
  • High-output extrusion
  • Pipe and profile lines
  • PVC, PE, PP and other thermoplastic extrusion
Materials & Construction

Grooved feed sections may use hardened alloy steel, D2 or EN41B sleeves, nitrided surfaces or other wear-resistant constructions.

Engineering & Design Considerations

Groove geometry, depth, pitch and cooling are important because the feed section strongly influences solids conveying and throughput stability.

Enquire
WPC Screw Barrel

09

WPC Screw Barrel

WPC screw barrels are designed for wood-plastic composite processing, where polymer is combined with wood flour/fiber and other additives. The material can be highly abrasive and moisture-sensitive.

Typical Applications
  • Wood-plastic decking and profiles
  • WPC sheets and boards
  • WPC granulation/compounding
Materials & Construction

Wear-resistant metallurgy and suitable surface treatment are important because wood/mineral fillers can accelerate barrel and screw wear.

Engineering & Design Considerations

Design should address feeding, drying/degassing, controlled melting, mixing and pressure generation while limiting excessive shear and thermal degradation.

Enquire
PVC / CPVC Screw Barrel

10

PVC / CPVC Screw Barrel

PVC and CPVC processing requires screw/barrel geometry and metallurgy selected for the material's processing window. Twin conical and parallel systems are common in PVC applications.

Typical Applications
  • Rigid PVC pipe and profile
  • UPVC / RPVC extrusion
  • CPVC specialty extrusion
Materials & Construction

Corrosion and wear resistance are important considerations because PVC formulations may contain additives that affect component life. Bimetallic and hardened options can be selected where appropriate.

Engineering & Design Considerations
