PLATEX by Takımsan
Planetary Roller Extruder Engineered in Türkiye Since 1995
ISO 9001:2015 & CE certified. Academically validated. Trusted in 40+ countries. Seven models covering lab scale through full production — at 30–50% lower investment than European alternatives.
Why Choose PLATEX by Takımsan
The planetary advantage — precise temperature control, high filler capacity and self-cleaning geometry — at substantially lower capital cost.
-
Gentle, Low-Temperature Processing
Planet rollers generate minimal shear heat. The melt film stays 0.1–1 mm thin throughout — ideal for heat-sensitive PVC, TPU, bioplastics and masterbatch.
-
Self-Cleaning Geometry
Continuous self-wiping action between rollers, spindle and barrel. No material build-up, rapid colour changeover, lower downtime between batches.
-
High Filler Loading to 80%
Handles calcium carbonate, talc and flame retardants at weight fractions that overload twin-screw systems.
-
Lower Energy Consumption
Rolling contact mechanics generate significantly less friction heat than twin-screw intermeshing. Lower processing temperatures reduce cooling load and cut specific energy consumption per kilogram processed — a measurable saving at production scale.
-
Academically Validated
Cited by Formela and Eyigöz as one of two manufacturers globally producing lab-scale planetary roller extruders. Independent academic recognition of the engineering.
-
30–50% Lower Investment
Same planetary roller technology as European systems — manufactured in Türkiye with documented quality control. Comparable performance at substantially lower capital expenditure.

Applications
Heat-sensitive materials, high filler loadings and demanding compounds. PLATEX by Takımsan supports seven application families.
Soft PVC Compounding
Cable compounds, hose and flexible profile at low melt temperature. Uniform plasticiser dispersion, rapid colour changes.
Learn more Rigid PVCRigid PVC Compounding
Window profiles, pipe and cladding without degradation risk. Precise temperature control at every roller contact.
Learn more BioplasticBioplastic Compounding
Low-shear processing for PLA, PHA and PBAT. Precise temperature control prevents thermal degradation of heat-sensitive bio-based polymers.
