Melting and conveying: Impressive technology

Our drum melting systems consist of a hydraulic heating plunger and a screw conveyor pump. The heating plunger ensures that the material is heated evenly, while the temperature-controlled feed pump conveys it in a controlled manner. Sensors monitor the entire process to ensure constant conditions.

This is how the process works step by step

  1. Heating the material: The hydraulic heating plunger heats the material evenly and prevents overheating.

  2. Temperature monitoring: Sensors regulate the temperature and ensure a stable consistency.

  3. Material conveying: The screw conveyor pump transports the molten material at high pressure and low shear forces.

  4. Air-free processing: The system prevents air inclusions and ensures consistent quality.

  5. Delivery to production: The material is continuously delivered to the downstream processing unit.

Why our drum melters are convincing

Stable production without fluctuations

The precise temperature control and uniform material feed prevent interruptions and ensure consistent quality.

High melting and conveying capacity

With up to 225 kg/h, the system ensures reliable and continuous processing, which reduces downtime.

Gentle material handling

The screw feed pump reduces mechanical stress and preserves the material properties of butyl, bitumen and other viscous materials.

Efficient heat management

The cast-in heating elements make targeted use of energy, enabling a fast heat-up time and lower energy consumption.

Versatile application options

The system can be adapted to different material properties and enables the processing of different viscosities.

Easy integration into production lines

Thanks to its compact design and standardized interfaces, the system can be seamlessly integrated into existing production lines.

Areas of application for our drum melters

Our drum melters are specially designed for processing thermoplastic products based on synthetic rubber (polyisobutylene, butyl) and bitumen. They enable precise heating and uniform conveying of these materials and are used in various industrial sectors:

​
