Flow analysis and shear rate comparison of counter-rotating and co-rotating intermeshing twin-screw extruders for filament extrusion of polypropylene-based biocomposites

This study investigates and compares the performance of counter-rotating and co-rotating intermeshing twin-screw designs in filament extruder machines. The research sought to determine whether the counter-rotating intermeshing design with its opposite flow direction offers advantages over the co-ro...
