The SMB-R static mixer for extrusion service (licensee of Bayer AG, Leverkusen, Germany) contains eight (8) very efficient motionless mixing elements that homogenize the polymer melt as it enters the extruder die.
The SMB-R mixing elements are considered a high performance design where they create a very high degree of mixing in a short length.
The SMB-R mixing elements are virtually indestructible due to their monolithic cast construction where the mixing bars are joined to each other and to the ring wall via a single molten metal pour.
