BUSS Kneader series PCS

BUSS Kneader technology for powder coatings

The extended BUSS Kneader series PCS sets benchmarks for profitability, availability and user-friendly handling. Whilst it retains the proven operating principle of the BUSS Kneader the process section in particular has undergone distinct modification.

The Buss Kneader PCS 46 is a versatile, compact small-scale compounding extruder for enhanced R&D work and pilot production campaigns. Its peer, the BUSS Laboratory Kneader PCS 30, is a versatile, compact small-scale compounding extruder for research and development, colour matching and customer sampling.

Typical applications

Especially in the areas of high gloss, clear coatings and thin-film applications, the advantages of the extended PCS Kneader series fully come into their own.

Pilot Plant PCS 46 15R

The Buss Kneader PCS 46 is a versatile, compact small-scale compounding extruder for enhanced R&D work and pilot production campaigns. This economical, user-friendly small-production compounder offers similar process characteristics as production-scale Buss Kneaders, with output rates up to 250 kg/h. Thanks to the modular processing zone, all production process conditions can be precisely emulated. The split barrel design enables not only optimal access to all process parts, but also visual assessment of all individual steps along the processing zone.

Laboratory Kneader PCS 30

The BUSS laboratory Kneader PCS 30 is a versatile, compact smallscale compounding extruder for research and development, colour matching and customer sampling. This economical, user-friendly laboratory compounder offers similar process characteristics as pro- duction scale BUSS Kneaders, with outputs ranging from 300 g samples up to 40 kg/h. Based on its process scale-up capabilities it qualifies as a universal laboratory compounder offering a high grade of efficiency and flexibility.
