Kneader

Definition and principle: A kneader is a device that mixes, plasticizes or reacts high-viscosity materials (such as rubber, plastic, silicone, adhesives, etc.) through shearing, extrusion and folding. Its core structure is a pair of asymmetric rotors (such as Z-shaped or Sigma-shaped blades) that repeatedly knead the materials in a closed or open cavity.

Classification by structural form: single-axis kneader, double-axis kneader, vacuum kneader

Classification by use: rubber kneader, plastic kneader, chemical kneader, food/pharmaceutical kneader

By working mode: intermittent kneader, continuous kneader

Classification by application: rubber industry, plastic processing, chemical industry, food and medicine, new energy materials
