Market Value Of Used Twin-Screw Extruders

The market value of used twin-screw extruders is not fixed but is determined by a combination of factors, including brand, model, condition, the degree of wear on core components, and market supply and demand. Generally, equipment from leading international brands (such as Koberlon and Lister) retains its value better, with a premium of up to 15% or more; The machine's bore size (e.g., 65-mm machines) and actual years of use directly impact pricing. A well-maintained, near-new machine may fetch 50%–60% of the price of a new unit, while older or severely worn equipment may retain only residual value. Furthermore, equipment sold as part of a complete production line, professionally refurbished, and backed by a warranty holds significantly higher value than components sold separately. Meanwhile, the cost-effectiveness of domestically exported equipment has secured it a competitive position in the global market. Consequently, assessing its market value requires consideration of the actual operating environment, current transaction conditions, and the buyer's evaluation of performance versus risk.
