Extrusion Gear Pump (EGP) Metering Control

PSI Extrusion Gear Pumps (EGP) enable metering control for polymer and hot melt adhesive extrusion and vessel applications.

The PSI-Polymer Systems Extrusion Gear Pumps (EGP) enable metering control for polymer and hot melt adhesive extrusion and vessel applications. With pumping efficiencies typically 99.5% or better, EGPs deliver a precise volumetric output and take on the pressure building function for the die. Extruder-related die pressure swings are dampened by 20:1 up to 50:1 and the gauge is controlled to nominally ±0.25%. The resulting gains in product consistency and quality assure greater yield, higher profitability, and lower scrap rates. Each full revolution of the tight-tolerance, counter-rotating gears delivers a precise linear volume of output, assuring optimal metering efficiency across the speed range.
