A 15-inch twin screw barrel refers to a specific type of screw barrel used in the process of plastic extrusion, specifically for machines like extruders. Twin screw barrels are crucial in plastic manufacturing processes, including the extrusion of thermoplastics like PVC, HDPE, and others.

Here’s a breakdown of the key aspects of a 15-inch twin screw barrel:

• Co-rotating twin screws: Both screws rotate in the same direction. This is common for applications like PVC processing because it offers better mixing and homogenization.
• Counter-rotating twin screws: The screws rotate in opposite directions. This design is typically used for better shear forces and material movement.

• The "15-inch" refers to the diameter of the twin screws, which in this case is 15 inches (approximately 381 mm). This size would be used in larger, industrial-scale extrusion operations where high throughput is needed.
• The screw diameter impacts the throughput capacity of the extruder and the processing speed. A 15-inch twin screw barrel is suitable for high-volume production and can handle large amounts of material, especially when processing materials like PVC.
