Euro Blue II Extruders Built on Quality and Competitive Pricing

Davis-Standard, LLC is pleased to announce the introduction of its new high performance, cost competitive Euro Blue II extruder model. This extruder, available from D-S Brookes Limited, the company’s Extrusion Systems Europe subsidiary based in the United Kingdom, is an upgraded version of the original Euro Blue model introduced in 2004. It offers even higher specifications and processing rates at a reasonable cost with fast delivery. In stock machines can be delivered in as quickly as one week based on location. D-S Brookes sold its first Euro Blue II to a customer in Barton-Le-Clay, UK, within a matter of days after the extruder’s introduction.

An example of this extruder model in its standard form includes a double reduction gearbox with helical carburized gears, an integral high capacity thrust bearing, cast iron feed section, four-zone DS1000 bi-metallic barrel assembly with heated clamp arrangement,
DSBM-T high performance barrier mixing feed screw, AC motor and drives, integrated control cabinet with four barrel and three die zones, digital speed and ammeters. It also comes with a two-year warranty and support from
D-S Brookes’ UK-based technical and aftermarket services. Pricing for a standard Euro Blue II extruder is £23,000 GBP.

This machine, like its predecessor, is engineered for custom profile and tubing applications, as well as basic wire and cable processes. The extruder range currently includes sizes of 50mm, 60mm, 75mm, and 90mm in 24:1 configurations. Should demand dictate, D-S Brookes will look to expand this range of extruder sizes.
