Abstract: A screw element which has an axially asymmetrical screw cross-sectional profile which has at least two construction points located within the screw cross-sectional profile is provided. The screw element is suitable for use in an extruder having two drive shafts which rotate in the same direction and at the same speed, in order to process or produce plastic masses as an extrudate. Also, an arrangement of two identical or different screw elements in an extruder having two drive shafts which rotate in the same direction and at the same speed is provided. An extruder which is equipped with two identical or different screw elements and has two drive shafts which rotate in the same direction and at the same speed is provided. Furthermore, the use of the screw element according to the invention for processing or producing plastic masses is provided.

Abstract: A single-grain seeder for introducing seeds into soil, including a singulating member which is suitable for singulating seeds supplied from a storage container and for dispensing the seeds individually, wherein the single-grain seeder has an application unit for applying a dressing agent to a singulated seed, wherein the application unit is arranged with respect to the singulating member in such a manner that the dressing agent is applied to a seed after the seed has been singulated and prior to the seed being dispensed from the singulating member.

Abstract: A process for extruding plastic compositions is provided. The process comprises providing a multi-screw extruder with screw elements and conveying, kneading, mixing, degassing or compounding the plastic compositions in the multi-screw extruder using the screw elements.

Abstract: A production arrangement for performing a chemical reaction with a standard transport container in accordance with DIN ISO 668 for accommodating a plurality of processing units disposed inside the standard transport container for assisting and/or performing a processing basic operation, and a supply network, disposed inside the standard transport container, for supplying the processing units with material and/or power and/or information. Owing to the supply network disposed inside the standard transport container, the availability of material and/or power and/or information can be ensured over a large area of the standard transport container, such that the same standard transport container with the same supply network can be re-used for different configurations of processing units and, in the event of a modification for performing a different chemical reaction, the processing units can simply be interchanged such that different chemical reactions can be performed with little outlay.
