Will you also present innovations in this area
at the K plastics trade fair in October?
Vogel
: I will not give too much information away at this time.
Yes, we will come with some innovations for the K in Düssel-
dorf. They will significantly simplify and improve the integration
of our Rotary Cutter granulators in the production lines of our
customers.
Concerning the details.... well, trade fair visitors are welcome to
take a look for themselves at our booth A21 in hall 9.
Are there policy developments that give reason to concern
to you and Getecha management?
Vogel
: Yes, but they are not new and concern nearly all branches
of the industrial landscape. We are latently always concerned
about forces that object to the use of plastics categorically with-
out realising the many different ways how these materials sim-
plify our lives today. Campaigns levelled against the plastics
industry with slogans such as "plastic bags in the ocean" com-
Quiet and efficient: Getecha will introduce new sound-insulated
hopper granulators such as the RS 45090 shown here at the K
trade fair
These two examples demonstrate the current extent of automation competencies of the
plant engineering company Getecha. At the left, a fixture for the automated bonding of
foam pads and at the right a complex gripper for a pick&place application
pletely miss the point! The question here
is much more: "Who dumped the bag in
the ocean?" Such wild types of disposal
need to be stopped for good. Everything
must focus on recycling all resources into
production circulation.
