Abstract
A multi-shaft preparation unit for plastic melts, having an extruder housing with an enclosed treatment chamber in its interior, and at least one rotor body shaft mounted rotatably in the treatment chamber and a sealing and guiding body with multiple recesses, in each of which a satellite screw is mounted. The multi-shaft preparation unit has a drive unit in which a gearing unit is arranged outside the extruder housing between a drive motor and the treatment chamber and is connected to the drive shaft sections of the rotor body shaft and of the satellite screws which lead out of the treatment chamber of the extruder housing. A separating device for decoupling a flow of fluid and/or heat emanating from the treatment chamber is provided between the extruder housing and the gearing unit, through which the drive shaft ends of the rotor body shaft and of the satellite screws pass.
