Extrusion International 5-2025

78 Extrusion International 5/2025 RECYCLING Ready for the Future of Your Business A t the K 2025, Lindner will be making the most of its exhibi- tion space – spread across Hall 9, Stand B17/19, and the outdoor area CE02 – showcasing trailblazing technologies and new products to process waste plastics. The spotlight will be on rst-class recyclate quali - ty, energy ef ciency, maximum ex - ibility, smart process optimisation along the entire value-added chain, and – a world rst in mechanical re - cycling. Ready for the future of your busi- ness –This is themottounderpinning the groundbreaking technologies and innovations being exhibited by recycling pioneer Lindner at the K 2025, including a revolutionary world rst in mechanical recycling. Visitors will also see the new fourth- generation Micromat, whose smart technology sets new standards in energy ef ciency and material ex - ibility. The joint venture between Lindner Washtech and EREMA is an impressive example of the impact of holistic process optimisation – from bale to pellet – of guaranteed re- cyclate quality, throughput and re - source utilisation. Ready for energy-ef cient versatility – the fourth- generation Micromat For the new Micromat series, Lind- ner has built on the proven strengths of Series 3, adding upgrades that improve both maintenance and pro- ductivity. The core of the new shred- der series is the innovative drive concept that features a remarkable level of ef ciency of above 97 %. Unlike a torque drive, the new con - cept operates without any rare earth elements and has an impressively long lifespan. Another highlight is the exible, con gurable blade sys - tem. This makes it possible to quickly replace pointed knives with step knives – which enables the shredder to exibly adapt to different material require - ments. Ready for smart process control and guaranteed quality Systematically and smartly optimising processes along the entire value-added chain – from shedding, sort- ing and washing to extru- sion – is the key to achieving reliable quality standards and an ef cient use of resources. These are only some of the results of the joint venture between Lindner Washtech and EREMA. “In the past few years we have been work- ing speci cally on optimising process interfaces and look forward to presenting the re- sults at the K 2025 together,” says Georg Krenn, Managing Direc- tor at Lindner Washtech. Topics in- clude integrated plant engineering for a de ned throughput, seamless and automated material ow regu - lation, smart performance monitor- ing and recyclate qualities for use in the cosmetics and food sectors. Ready for a revolution in mechanical recycling From post-consumer plastics to high-quality recyclate that can also beused in sensitive applications such as cosmetics and personal care – as well as being energy ef cient and reliable? That was the key question at the start of the project. At K 2025, Lindner and a well-known partner will present a revolutionary world rst in mechanical recycling. It is an innovative washing process that sets new standards in material pu- rity, rede ning the recyclate quality for the cosmetic and personal care sector. This technology also opens up access to other complex areas of application and the method will be presented for the rst time at Lind - ner’s exhibition stand.
