The Xaloy ELCee? injection molding screw is a high performance, single-flighted screw designed for pre-compounded resins. It is considered the best choice for recovery limited injection applications.

The Xaloy? ELCee? Screw can cut retraction time by up to 50%, compared to standard screws, because it melts and delivers the material for each shot faster and more efficiently than general-purpose molding screws. It can also increase yield by reducing part rejects and thermal degradation. It doesn?t overwork the material, and it cuts residence time in the barrel. Cycle time reductions achieved with the screw typically save the equivalent of 5 to 14 cents per pound in resin costs. Even larger savings are achieved in some cases.
