Shredding Technology: Hydraulic Alternative for Thick Edge Trims
In film and plate extrusion, particularly tough edge trims come up every now and then. To condition this material for processing in hopper granulators as efficiently as possible, it must first run through the process step of coarse crushing. Adapted to this, GETECHA supplies a range of powerful foil cutters and choppers
Recycling – Case Study: Recycling of LDPE / LLDPE Film – Guaranteed Quality Through Fine Filtration
Llorens offers its customer an extensive service, from collection, preparation to the reuse of industrial waste. The company has several modern reprocessing and recycling lines and decided to add a Melt Filtration System from Gneuss as a fine filter in order to remove contaminants down to 56 to 100 μm
Recycling – Case Study: „Got It Covered“
Any manufacturing and production process will no doubt produce waste in some form. So does Plastipack, a producer of high-quality plastic swimming pool covers and water storage systems. By the help of a WEIMA two-stage size reduction system, plastic scrap is recycled directly onsite – for a closed loop
Recycling: Keeping Pace with High-quality Recycled Resin
Production of recycled plastic content is far from meeting demand, posing major industry challenges. Embracing the latest technological advancement in flake sorting helps bridge the gap between supply and demand and gives recyclers a competitive edge in efficiency and profitability
