Twin Shaft Feeders

Controlled Feeding for Extrusion or Other Process Equipment

Bonnot developed the Twin Packer concept to enhance ingestion of difficult materials that are prone to bridging in the feed section.

These single screw designs are very versatile and are employed in a wide variety of industries including chemical catalysts, sealants, pet treats and many more. The packer designs can be modified to improve the feed depending on the application. They can also be driven independently with dedicated gear motors, further enhancing process control. The line of Bonnot Twin Packers can be designed with a wide variety of screw geometries, different length-to-diameter ratios, horsepower, RPM ranges and controls to optimize your application.
