Noztek fusionX Mixing Extruder — main product image

Overview

The Noztek fusionX is the world's only single-screw hot melt mixing extruder capable of delivering true homogeneous mixing for demanding advanced materials—eliminating the need for complex, high-maintenance twin-screw systems while achieving research-grade dispersion previously considered impossible in a single-screw design.

Hardcore reasons to invest in the fusionX:

Create composites that don't exist yet: Patented staged shear system with up to three interchangeable hardened stainless steel blending blades (1mm–10mm sizes, graduated configuration) enables precise dispersive mixing at the molecular level. This unlocks homogeneous nano-composites, carbon nanotube blends, metal-filled polymers, bio-polymers, and pharmaceutical formulations that traditional extruders cannot reliably process—allowing your lab to pioneer breakthrough materials for peer-reviewed publications and next-gen applications.

Superior homogeneity without twin-screw drawbacks: Achieves consistent, degradation-free blending via optimised mixing, compression, and shearing in one compact screw (280mm bespoke stainless steel with 3.3mm channel depth). Avoids hot spots, channelling, and variability that plague conventional single-screw setups, delivering reproducible results essential for grant-funded R&D and regulatory compliance.

Uncompromising torque and power for exotic materials: 17.5 Nm high-torque motor at 50 RPM handles viscous, abrasive, and temperature-sensitive composites effortlessly—ensuring stable extrusion even with challenging nano or pharmaceutical blends where consistency is non-negotiable.

Precision thermal control to protect sensitive formulations: Dual heating (1000W ceramic in copper housing + 485W Watlow nozzle band) with three independent thermocouples and zoned adjustments prevents overheating and material degradation, critical for bio-materials and pharma compounds.

Sterile, contamination-free lab compliance: Full stainless steel material path (barrel, screw, nozzles) with split-barrel design enables rapid disassembly, thorough cleaning, and zero cross-contamination—meeting the strict purity demands of pharmaceutical giants and biomedical research.

Data-driven research acceleration: Intuitive touchscreen for real-time parameter setup and oversight, plus seamless USB laptop integration for live monitoring, comprehensive logging, and exportable graphs/charts. Capture every run's torque, speed, temperature, and flow data for analysis, troubleshooting, reporting, and publications—transforming experiments into publishable, repeatable science.

The fusionX delivers unmatched capability in a research-optimised package—empowering universities, pharma companies, and institutions to develop tomorrow's impossible materials today, with one screw and zero compromises.

Customisable Blending Blades

Interchangeable hardened stainless steel blades in various sizes (1mm to 10mm) allow tailored shear rates for optimal homogeneous mixing of nano-composites, pharmaceuticals, and bio-polymers.

Advanced Dual-Heating System

Featuring a 1000W ceramic heater and 485W nozzle band heater with three independent thermocouples, it provides precise temperature control to prevent degradation in sensitive materials.

Intuitive Touchscreen Interface

The custom touchscreen enables easy setup, real-time monitoring, and adjustment of extrusion parameters, streamlining oversight for accurate and repeatable lab results.

Seamless Laptop Data Integration

USB connectivity allows live monitoring and export of all critical run data, including graphs and charts, for in-depth analysis and research documentation.

Sterile Stainless Steel Construction

Full stainless steel barrel, screw, and nozzles with a split design ensure contamination-free processing and easy cleaning, ideal for sterile lab environments.

Mixing & Performance

Unmatched Homogeneous Mixing

The fusionX's patented single-screw design integrates mixing, compression, and shearing for superior material homogeneity, surpassing traditional systems. With staggered blending blades, it handles nano-composites and pharmaceuticals effortlessly, eliminating inconsistencies like hot spots or channelling. This precision enables researchers to develop complex formulations reliably, making previously impossible materials achievable in a compact setup.

High-Torque Performance for Demanding Materials

Equipped with a 17.5 Nm torque motor at 50 RPM, the extruder powers through viscous and abrasive composites without compromise. Its controlled speed ensures consistent extrusion quality, ideal for carbon nanotubes, metal-filled polymers, and bio-materials. This robust capability supports small-batch R&D, allowing seamless processing of exotic substances in university and pharmaceutical labs.

Precision Thermal Management

Dual heaters—a 1000W ceramic unit and 485W nozzle band—paired with three thermocouples deliver exact temperature zoning. This prevents overheating and degradation in sensitive polymers, ensuring stable conditions throughout runs. Researchers benefit from adjustable settings via touchscreen, optimising for diverse experiments while maintaining material integrity and reproducibility.

Control & Versatility

User-Friendly Controls and Monitoring

The intuitive touchscreen interface simplifies setup and oversight, with independent motor speed and heater controls. Real-time data capture integrates with laptops for exporting logs, graphs, and charts. This empowers data-driven refinements, perfect for grant reporting and publications, reducing errors and enhancing efficiency in fast-paced research environments.

Sterile and Durable Build

Full stainless steel construction along the material path, including a split barrel for quick cleaning, upholds sterile lab standards and minimises contamination. Hardened blades and nozzles withstand abrasive use, while the desktop footprint fits seamlessly into workspaces. Accessories like multiple blade sets and nozzles ensure immediate versatility and longevity.

Scalable Research Versatility

Customisable blade configurations and multi-pass compatibility with the Noztek Pelletiser allow tailored processing for varied objectives. From initial blending to deep integration, it supports iterative experiments in nanomaterials and composites. This adaptability, combined with comprehensive data logging, accelerates innovation for institutions worldwide, fostering breakthrough discoveries with minimal downtime.
