thermorex⁶ TR/TB/TP/TO

Booster pump for the polymer industry

Polymer processes require pumps that gently process both high and low viscosity plastic melt through the system.

Specially designed low-compression teeth allow the thermorex®-x⁶ class transfer, booster or metering gear pump to achieve both high pressure and low shear. The plastic melt is conveyed with a constant, precise flow even at high discharge pressures — and this also for low viscosity products like prepolymers, where former pump generations  reached their limits. Additionally, their high efficiency and long service life will enhance the capacity of any given production plant.
