The eagle mixing screw

The Eagle mixing screw is a no shear, distributive and dispersive mixing screw that provides the processor with outstanding color mixing and melt quality - all without increasing melt temperature, burning or degradation while running at very high RPM. The Eagle can be designed for most resins. This patented technology improves production rates while reducing color concentrate levels.

The Eagle® is used with custom-designed single flighted screws and also with barrier designs for special applications

Centrifugal induction casting

Reiloy manufactures all of its bimetallic barrels on centrifugal induction casting lines with integrated process control, also developed in-house. The results: 100% stress-free bimetallic barrel blanks. This eliminates the need for work-intensive operations like straightening or stress-relief baking during the mechanical processes further down the road.

powder atomization

Reiloy produces its own Hard Metal Alloy Powder using a gas atomizer at our Troisdorf Germany location. In our research and development, we cooperate closely with machine builders, raw material producers, as well as universities and colleges.
