Lab Scale
ICMA's Lab systems are perfectly equipped for use as development units with the same process
engineering features and equipment applied to production scale extrusion lines in order to ensure reliable and safe scale-up. These units are extremely compact and user-friendly.
Modular screws of the co-rotating extruder with several geometries and different barrel designs are combined with a wide range of ancillary equipment to deliver maximum flexibility.

Who should buy
Companies studying new processes and/or upgrading an existing formulation before going into production. Also ideal for producing small batches.
Advantages
The ICMA lab-scale co-rotating extruder can be an important addition to any operation and can help:
- Minimize operational risks of new formulations before going into production
- Minimize time to market and "paycheck" period of new developments
- Minimize risks related to "intellectual property" compared to external development
- Improve ROI by decreasing the risks, costs, and time of new development.
