Farrel Pomini products

Modular design provides superior compounding, process efficiencies and accelerated return on investment. Farrel first introduced the FCM™, Continuous Mixer in 1963. Continuous Mixing Technology is based on the principle of two counter-rotating, non-intermeshing rotors and a large free volume mixing chamber. The large mixing chamber allows for liberal material circulation and superior distributive mixing, while the specialized rotor geometry facilitates efficient levels of shear and excellent dispersive mixing. Continuous Mixing is a unique technology alternative to conventional compounding technologies and excels when compounding highly filled, temperature-sensitive and abrasive polymers. The FCM™ provides a long machine lifecycle, significant energy, process and maintenance efficiencies, and maximum on-stream time-critical to successful volume-driven compounding.

Flexible configuration with controlled feeding and dispersion. The Hot Feed Extruder is designed to take the material from the FCM™, Farrel Continuous Mixer, and features an oversized hopper opening that ensures efficient feeding. The continuous feed of material permits orientation of these extruders either parallel or at right angles to the axis of the FCM™ rotors.
