First prototype built<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n
- \n
- As part of a Masters degree, the first twin-screw extruder was built in a small facility on the NWU campus<\/span><\/li>\n
- \n
- Expanded site<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n
- A new raw material building of 500 m2 was built to house the raw materials used in the R&D Extrusion centre. This building was equipped with grain cleaning equipment, storage silos, milling and mixing equipment
- Raw materials building<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n
- Manufacturing space expanded<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n
- Moved to new facilities<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n
- Everything learnt over the past ten years was used to design and build CFAM\u2019s new TX series twin-screw extruders. The New TX80 extruder distinguished itself as a market leader and earned a reputation of Built in Africa for Africa\n
