Some Applications Examples

XimeX reproduces the full equipment and analyses the whole process

Ex : Modeling of a complete twin screw extruder

Ex : Modeling of a complete Buss kneader

Ex : Modeling of a complete batch mixer

Results : Material Behaviour and its evolution during the process : temperature, pressure, shear rate...

A whole twin screw designed with XimeX

XimeX underlines a key element of the process

Ex : Impact of the staggering angle of kneading disks on the pressure

Ex : Balance of complex dies

Ex : Improvement of Residence Time Distribution according to screw elements

Ex : To avoid dead areas in a Batch mixer

Results : analysis focused on a specific element : pressure , temperature, Residence Time Distribution evolution; mixing efficiency of a specific screw element... regarding to the process functionning

Pressure fields in kneading disks

Observe Particles properties during the process

Ex : Carbon particles dispersion in PE matrix during extrusion processes

Ex : Particles diameter evolution

Results : Quantification on the particles properties : size, shape, dissemination time, lengthening...

Particles dissemination in a twin screw

XimeX reproduces the processes that have the most complex behaviours. The most specific are adapted on demand.

Ex : Modeling of Buss kneader taking into account the translation/rotation movement of the screw

Ex : Modeling of a Kenics Mixer and particles Analysis

Results : analysis of the material behaviour and dispersive/distributive Mixing efficiency
