Product Overview

Parallel twin screw barrels are commonly used in plastic compounding, pelletizing, plastic recycling extrusion, masterbatch production and filled material processing. Compared with general extrusion applications, these working conditions often involve higher mixing demand, material friction, filler content and wear requirements.

Nanhaiya manufactures custom parallel twin screw barrels according to machine model, drawings, samples or measured dimensions. The screw barrel design can be reviewed based on processed material, screw diameter, L/D ratio, output requirement, wear condition, filler content and extrusion application.

Our engineering team can review extruder information, screw barrel photos, drawings, samples or measured dimensions to support quotation and technical evaluation. Whether the application involves plastic compounding, pelletizing, recycling extrusion or filled materials, the final screw and barrel design should be matched to the equipment, material formulation and working conditions.

Suitable Applications

This product is commonly used for the following applications, depending on material, machine model and processing conditions. Explore related applications on our Screw Barrel Applications page.

Common Processing Issues

1

High wear from filled materials: Fillers such as calcium carbonate, glass fiber, mineral powder or recycled material impurities may increase screw and barrel wear.

2

Unstable pelletizing output: Output fluctuation may be related to screw barrel wear, feeding condition, material formulation, temperature control or screw design mismatch.

3

Poor mixing or dispersion: Uneven mixing, color dispersion problems or unstable compound quality may require screw barrel and screw element review.

4

Pressure instability: Barrel wear, screw clearance, material condition or machine settings can affect extrusion pressure stability.

5

Specification confirmation: When original drawings are unavailable, machine information, photos, samples and measured dimensions can support specification review and manufacturing confirmation.

Material Options

Nanhaiya manufactures parallel twin screw barrel components from the following materials:

38CrMoAlA Nitrided Steel (Standard)

The commonly used material for parallel twin screw barrels. After heat treatment, the core hardness reaches HB260-320. Nitriding treatment achieves a surface hardness of HV950-1000 with a nitriding depth of 0.50-0.7mm and nitriding brittleness of ≤ grade 2. Suitable for general-purpose extrusion of PVC, PP, PE and ABS, depending on processed material and working conditions.

Hot Processed Steel

Special steel options for screw components requiring high hot hardness: 1.2344, H13, W360 and SKD61. Can be designed for applications involving high processing temperatures, depending on processed material and working conditions.

Cold Processed Steel

Tool steel grades for components requiring high wear resistance: 1.2379, K340, D2, DC53, SKD11 and W110. Can be used for screw elements and barrel components in abrasive processing applications, depending on filler content and working conditions.

High-Speed Steel (HSS)

Grades available: 1.3343, 1.3243, SKH51 and SKH55. Can be designed for demanding wear applications, depending on processed material and screw design.

HIP Powder HSS

Advanced powder metallurgy grades: CPM9V, SK739, SK726, SK742 and GH113. Can be designed for highly abrasive and corrosive applications, depending on filler type, loading and working conditions.

Bimetallic Parallel Twin Screw Barrel (Optional)

For higher wear-resistance requirements, a bimetallic parallel twin screw barrel with alloy layer is available. Bimetal depth is 1.0-2.0mm with bimetal hardness of HRC56-65. The barrel alloy layer can use centrifugal casting alloy inner bore and shrinkage fit technology. Alloy barrel options can be discussed according to processed material, filler content and working conditions.

Final material selection should be confirmed depending on processed material, filler content, screw design, extruder model and working conditions.

Surface Treatment Options

Nitriding Treatment (Standard)

The standard surface treatment for Nanhaiya parallel twin screw barrels. Gas nitriding produces a surface hardness of HV950-1000 with a nitriding depth of 0.50-0.7mm and nitriding brittleness of ≤ grade 2. Surface roughness achieves Ra0.4. Suitable for general-purpose extrusion of PVC, PP, PE and other common thermoplastics.

Hard Chrome Plating

Electroplated chromium layer with a hardness of ≥950HV and thickness of 0.05-0.10mm. Chrome plating provides corrosion resistance and a smooth surface for material flow. Can be used for processing corrosive polymers, depending on processed material and working conditions.

PTA Alloy Welding

The screw flight top can use PTA (Plasma Transferred Arc) alloy welding. Alloy types include cobalt-base, nickel-base and iron-base alloys. PTA alloy welding can be designed for abrasive and corrosive applications, depending on filler type, loading and working conditions.

Stellite Plasma Alloy Welding

Stellite plasma alloy welding can be applied to screw flight surfaces for enhanced wear and corrosion resistance. Cobalt-base Stellite alloy provides high hardness and oxidation resistance. Can be designed for glass-fiber-filled and highly abrasive compounds, depending on processed material and working conditions.

Centrifugal Casting Alloy Barrel

For barrel inner surfaces, a centrifugal casting alloy inner bore with shrinkage fit technology can be applied. This produces a bimetallic barrel with alloy depth of 1.0-2.0mm and hardness of HRC56-65. The centrifugal casting process ensures uniform alloy distribution. Alloy barrel options can be discussed according to processed material, filler content and working conditions.

Final surface treatment selection should be confirmed depending on processed material, filler content, screw design, extruder model and working conditions. For more details, see our alloy spray welding service page.
