The region runs large mixed plastics-rubber operations \u2014 rubber masterbatch, reclaimed and devulcanised feedstocks, cable compounds and high-filler compounds for the tyre supply chain \u2014 and the questions at booth T139 came from engineers who know their abrasion numbers by heart. That is a good match for a builder who machines its own liners: the wear package is quoted by material, sized for the duty, and the parts source is the same factory that ground the screws.<\/p>\n<p>AP-RubberPlas closes the 2026 exhibition season for Kerke. The full show list \u2014 eleven exhibitions across China, the Gulf, Southeast Asia and T\u00fcrkiye \u2014 is on <a href=\"\/company\/news\/\">the news page<\/a>, and the trial bench in Nanjing runs all year.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"sec\" id=\"s4\">The questions we answered<\/h2>\n<div class=\"tw\"><table><caption><b>Table 1.<\/b> The four questions that came back at booth T139, and the short answers.<\/caption>\n<thead><tr><th>Question<\/th><th>Answer on the stand<\/th><\/tr><\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr><td>Triple screw for rubber masterbatch \u2014 why?<\/td><td>Dispersion per barrel metre: more split-and-fold events, lower residence spread, at lower specific energy than a longer twin screw.<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td>Abrasive reclaimed rubber \u2014 liner life?<\/td><td>Bimetallic liners with PM elements in the duty zones; the wear package is a quotation line item, not a hidden upgrade.<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td>Can the downstream be integrated with our bagging line?<\/td><td>Yes \u2014 turnkey scope covers feeding to bagging, with the interface tested at the works before shipment.<\/td><\/tr>\n<tr><td>Trial with our rubber compound?<\/td><td>Send 25\u201350 kg; the lab bench runs it in 3\u20137 days with pellets, video and the parameter sheet.<\/td><\/tr>\n<\/tbody><\/table><\/div>\n\n<h2 class=\"sec\" id=\"s5\">Visit the works instead<\/h2>\n<p>Every machine Kerke sells is built and run in one place: screw elements, shafts and barrels are machined in our Nanjing works, gearboxes are assembled and run in for 24 hours, and every line is tested <strong>with material<\/strong> before it ships.
