DuPont® ELCee™ Screw



As a licensed manufacturer of the DuPont® ELCee™ screw, a single flighted performance-based screw, we are able to offer a solution for rate limited processors using pre-compounded resins. The ELCee screw can cut retraction time by up to 50%, compared to standard screws, because it melts and delivers the material for each shot faster and more efficiently than general-purpose molding screws. It can also increase yield by reducing part rejects and thermal degradation. It doesn’t overwork the material, and it cuts residence time in the barrel. Cycle time reductions achieved with the screw typically save the equivalent of 5 to 14 cents per pound in resin costs. Even larger savings are achieved in some cases.
