Newex Project – Research Issues and Other Activities

European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under the Marie Skłodowska-Curie grant agreement No 734205

The main research goal of the NEWEX Project is the construction and testing of the new innovative extruder. By the application of a New concept of vital parts: innovative active grooved feed section (IAGFS), original rotational barrel segment (ORBS) and special screw (SS) a completely new breakthrough technology of extrusion and plasticizing systems will be achieved. It will ensure manufacturing the products of improved properties and will enable the processing of materials that couldn’t be processed so far, as well as food materials, cosmetics and pharmaceuticals. In parallel to the main RTD activities the NEWEX project is aiming at industry-academia cooperation and transfer of knowledge between organizations from central-eastern and Western Europe.

Investigation and development of a new generation of machines for the processing of composite and nanocomposites materials
