user-friendliness facilitates monitoring and control of the extruder.
• Automatic operation
– Downtime prevented thanks to permanent monitoring
and, if necessary, correction of process-related
factors.
– Production rejects minimized through the automated
start-up and shutdown of the extrusion process.
• Product recipes
– Uniform quality ensured through the use of
product recipes.
• Pre-tempering
– Barrels are pre-heated or cooled to minimize
waiting times at start of production.
• Remote maintenance
– Remote access by Bühler (optional).
Improved efficiency through:
Easy control of the extruder using a touch screen panel on the machine
