Established in 1883 and headquartered in the United States, CPM has leveraged its decades of experience and know-how to become a global leader in providing solutions for the extrusion and compounding industries.
With locations around the globe including facilities in the U.S., Germany and China – and an innovation lab in Germany, CPM is positioned to be a full lifecycle partner anywhere in the world.
CXE 70HO co-rotating intermeshing twin-screw extruder
CPM specializes in the production of extrusion machinery and equipment for polymer compounding, plastics resin recycling, as well as for rubber and tire sealant production.
CPM’s co-rotating intermeshing twin screw extruders lead the industry in quality and value. The CXE twin screw extruders range in size from 26mm to 177mm, all within the most common 1.55 diameter (Do/Di) geometry, with torque density up to 18 Nm/cm3.
“Given the large number, globally, of 1.55 geometry machines, our offering of the CXE twin screw extruder allows our customers to maintain the same process parameters in their compounding production,” said Sean Doran, CPM Vice President Engineered Materials.
“This saves months of additional lab re-verification when possibly switching to different extruder volume machines, and therefore, saving our customers time and money.”
With the new GXT extruder system, CPM also offers an intermeshing co-rotating extruder line designed with the global market in mind.
“We’re really excited to introduce our GXT to the market,” said Doran. “We’ll be speaking on it more at NPE, so be sure to visit our booth.”
The RingExtruder from CPM excels with shear sensitive materials.
CPM also offers the innovative RingExtruder, which has tremendous advantages for rubber and rPET recycling processes.
This patented 12 screw ring geometry provides a high surface-to-volume ratio which is unmatched by any other multi-screw extruder while also maintaining self-wiping geometry. This feature provides enhanced thermal heat transfer for processing temperature and shear sensitive materials.
With innovation at the forefront, CPM is also further developing the next generation of high output side feeders. The new design will improve bulk density and throughput of powder materials for compounding processing and is planned to be on display at NPE.
The most expensive item for a company is downtime. CPM has a solution. CPM provides customers with a comprehensive assessment of their extruders.
CPM’s audits include full visual inspection, barrel mapping, bore measurements using capacitive sensor technology along with high-resolution imaging and video of the internal barrel bores.
Within the same day, customers are provided triple verified data of the audit, and within three to five days, customers receive a summary report with measurement data and wear analysis along with recommendations on how to proceed.
CPM’s services include a full machine audit with 4K imaging.
CPM’s comprehensive scope also includes machine installation and startup, system operations and maintenance, training and process optimization, parts and supplies.
CPM manufactures parts and supplies for more than 30 OEMs with a focus on durability and precision. The parts are built to match original specification using engineered materials that prolong the equipment's lifespan.
