New unit to offer replacement parts
Entek Machinery, supplier of co-rotating twin-screw extruders and replacement wear parts, has formed a new operating unit known as Entek Plus to supply replacement wear parts.

The new unit will provide parts for both Entek and non-Entek brand co-rotating twin-screw extruders.  The company has recently invested heavily to ramp up its capacity to manufacture higher quantities of parts and provide faster deliveries. Several new machining centres have been installed at its facility in Lebanon, Oregon, and these will be dedicated to the replacement wear parts business that includes screws and barrels.

Besides replacement parts, Entek Plus will also provide services like replacing worn twin-screw elements and barrels with its own brand of wear parts, installing new Allen Bradley-based control systems, measuring screws and barrels and training employees.
