KTE-95D Twin Screw Extruder
KTE-95D: 93 mm, 2×4,800 N·m, 315–500 kW, 1,000–2,000 kg/h — D-class severity at industrial volume for glass fibre and 90% filler. A reference KTE-95D twin screw extruder page from Kerke.

The KTE-95D puts the range's step-change gearbox (2×4,800 N·m) on the 93 mm bore: 1,000–2,000 kg/h with the torque to run glass-fibre and 88–90% filler duty at full line speed. It is the severity flagship below the 135 class.

Parameters
| Model | Dia. (mm) | Speed (rpm) | Motor (kW) | Torque (N·m) | Output (kg/h) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| KTE-95D | 93 | 500–800 | 315–500 | 2×4800 | 1000–2000 |
Reference output measured on the stated material family; subject to a material trial. Motor and torque values are per machine, not per screw shaft.
Where it fits in the range
Above the KTE-95B (same bore, 2×3,000 N·m) and the torque-matched KTE-135B (bigger bore, B class). Below it, the KTE-75D covers the same duties to 1,000 kg/h. At 135 mm the KTE-135D (2×7,800 N·m) is the only step further.
What it runs
Duties: glass-fibre PP/PA/PA66 at 30–40% and 1,000 kg/h+, 90% filler masterbatch with double side feeding, HFFR cable compound in volume, and reactive systems — XLPE, TPU, MAH-grafting — where torque reserve is the process guarantee.

Configuration options
Every KTE ships as a building-block system: screw elements on splined shafts, barrel modules that accept side feeders, liquid injection and vacuum vents, so the geometry is set by the formulation rather than fixed at the factory. Three choices define a KTE-95D quotation: the L/D (32–36 for simple filling, 40–48 with side feed and devolatilization, 52–60 for reactive duties), the wear package (standard 38CrMoAlA or bimetallic liner with PM/HIP elements where CaCO3, talc or glass fibre grind), and the pelletizing head (strand, water ring, air-cooled hot face or underwater — matched to the polymer, not to the model number).
FAQ
Is 2,000 kg/h achievable on a 95D?
The reference band tops at 2,000 kg/h on benign materials; glass-filled and 90% filler duties realistically plan 1,000–1,500. The trial converts the band into a number for your grade.
What power supply does a 95D line need?
315–500 kW main motor plus auxiliaries — we build the switchgear and voltage for the destination country. Most 95D installations run on a dedicated medium-voltage or 400 V/3-phase supply with transformer headroom.
How is wear managed at this severity?
Bimetallic liners and PM/HIP elements as the standard wear package, with element life tracked per tonne. At 90% filler the wear parts are a scheduled cost — the quotation lists them as a line item, not an upgrade.
Where these numbers come from
Parameters come from the Kerke parameter table and product master data sheet, cross-checked against commissioning records for the same model and duty. Where a catalogue value and a trial value disagree, the trial value is the one we quote.

KTE-95D twin screw extruder — the short version
Note on KTE-95D twin screw extruder: what separates one machine from another is torque class, L/D and the wear package matched to your material, not the build standard. Shortlist from the tables, then confirm the choice on a trial with your own powder.
Planning an upgrade this quarter? Send the material and the target output — the configuration comes back within one working day.
Every quotation lists the wear package as a separate line, so its cost is visible from day one.
Questions are answered the same day, in English or Chinese.
