Continuous screen changer BKG® NorCon™ LK-SWE

double-pistonextrusion

Continuous melt filters from Nordson increase product quality significantly by ensuring a constant process pressure with no line shutdowns bringing maximum efficiency to your extrusion operation. The BKG® NorCon™ LK-SWE is specifically suitable to process high throughputs of polyolefins and a variety of other temperature stable polymers, e.g., ABS, PS, SAN. The BKG® NorCon™ LK-SWE is based on a proven double-piston design with two oval-shaped screen cavities increasing the available filtration area. During screen change, only one of the pistons is moved out of the housing, allowing the other filter cavity to remain in operation for process consistency. It is best suited for processing normal to low contamination levels when your upstream components provide a high inlet pressure. Automated Venting The BKG® NorCon™ LK-SWE can be equipped with an automated melt pressure-controlled venting start feature. This provides reliable, repeatable, and independent of material, throughput, temperature, system pressure, and viscosity changes venting procedure, ensuring a high-quality end-product.
