Rondol offers an unsurpassed range of machines and ancillary equipment for compounding, compression, extrusion, mixing and moulding. These help the Aeronautics and Space Industry engineer new products to improve design flexibility, meet changing standards, reduce fuel consumption and lower costs. Flexible configurations and systems can also be designed and manufactured to your requirements.
Our Twin Screw Compounders can be reconfigured to a specific Aeronautics Industry application by selecting various kneading, mixing, and shear screw elements, and ancillary equipment options. For example:
• Used in research, development and small-scale production of novel aerospace materials such as liquid crystalline polymer composites.
• Efficient compounding to help optimise materials content, electrical and physical properties, processing methodology and costs.
Rondol PASS (Process Analysis & Simulation Software) for Rondol Twin Screw Compounders enables cost and time savings in method development, procedure optimisation and preparation for scale-up production on larger extruders:
• Easy to use and fast optimisation of mixing efficiency, screw configuration, operating settings and product quality.
Rondol Single Screw Extruders combine high production capabilities, energy efficiency and ease of use with compact size and are well suited to a wide range of polymers and processing applications. For example:
• Fabrication of small thermoplastic components with high strength-to-weight properties.
• Co-extrusion to combine weather resistance on the outside surface with inner core impact resistance and structural performance.
Rondol Compression Moulding Machines extend fabrication possibilities, and provide precision, durability and versatility in density and porosity control, with tooling and options designed to meet customer needs. Applications include:
• Compression moulding of carbon fibre-reinforced polymers and advanced composites.
Rondol Injection Moulding Machines are perfect for laboratory, batch and mass production of small components in a clean room environment. Applications include:
• Moulding small components, including rotors, bearing caps, plugs, valves and pump fittings.
The ruggedly built benchtop, variable speed Two-Roll Mills are used in the Aerospace Industry for mixing and calendaring. Applications include:
• Preparation of materials and resin compositions.
The MiniMix is a versatile, high speed Laboratory Mixer. Stainless bowls are interchangeable and ensure corrosion resistance and productivity.
• Recommended general tool for premixing powders, granules and liquids.
