Gneuss

Polymer Technology

With its modular design, Gneuss Extrusion Technology combines the individual Gneuss product elements for
economic, high quality and high performance production processes in the most diverse areas of plastics processing and
their manufacture.

MRS Extruder

The Gneuss MRS Multi Rotation System Extruder offers new possibilities in the venting, devolatilization or decontamination of polymer melts. It allows, for example, the processing of PET without pre-drying. Alternatively, this technology can also be used to introduce gases (for foamed products) or fillers / additives homogenously into the melt.

Typical applications areas are:
• Extrusion, particularly of PET, PA and other hygroscopic polymers like Film / Sheet, Resins, Strapping Tape, Fibre
• Devolatisation and decontamination of polymers
• Food approvals: FDA, EFSA, ANVISA, INVIMA, SENASA

Process and Control Technology

The use of patented measurement and control technology allows Gneuss to simplify extrusion processes while at the same time increasing their reliability

Viscosity Measurement

The Gneuss Online Viscometer VIS allows the permanent, real time monitoring of polymer viscosity. Its rugged design
and measurement accuracy are well proven. The viscosity measurement takes place without material losses. The design
permits easy cleaning, without influencing the process

Filtration Technology

Rotary Filtration System

The patented Gneuss Rotary Filtration Systems enable fully automatic, process and pressure constant polymer melt
filtration. The main characteristic of these Filtration Systems is the Rotary Disc with its ring of screen cavities, located
between two solid steel blocks

Measurement Technology

Measurement Technology

Gneuss Melt Pressure and Temperature Sensors are characterized by their extremely high precision, combined with a
high degree of robustness. Consistent application of latest technology ensures permanent quality control during the
production process.
