The present invention relates to a screw-type
dewatering extruder that simultaneously applies a screw
dewatering method and an
extrusion method. A feeding zone, primary and secondary
dewatering zones by compression, a
tertiary dewatering zone by vacuum, and a high-pressure
extrusion zone are integrally formed. A pellet forming unit is configured to be rotatable on the rear side of a cylinder. Therefore, the dewatering ability can be greatly increased, and a separate extruder is not required at the rear end, unlike the existing dewatering device, so equipment and costs for a downstream
drying process can be significantly reduced. A material that has undergone the dewatering and
extrusion processes can be produced quickly and easily into
pellets of a
cut size. In addition, when a lead screw is rotated in the forward direction,
powder moves from the front to the rear direction of the cylinder, at this time, a reverse
spiral blade serves to prevent the movement of the
powder, and as a result, the dewatering effect of the
powder can be further increased. In addition, by rapidly
pelletizing the powder by spraying cooling air to the powder extruded through a die hole in a cooling air injection unit,
mass production is possible. The screw-type dewatering extruder comprises a cylinder, a lead screw, a lead screw driving unit, and a pellet forming unit.
