Global solutions provider at Greenplast 2022

At Green­plast in Milan, Italy, May 3–6, 2022, Hall 14, Booth 31, Maag Group will show inte­grat­ed solu­tions for poly­mer pro­cess­ing in the recy­cling sec­tor, specif­i­cal­ly the ERF high-per­for­mance melt fil­ter from Ettinger.

This high-per­for­mance melt fil­ter is used to fil­ter high­ly con­t­a­m­i­nat­ed poly­mer melts. The fil­ter is self-clean­ing with a rotat­ing per­fo­rat­ed drum through which melt con­tin­u­ous­ly flows from the out­side to the inside. A scraper removes impu­ri­ties remain­ing on the fil­ter sur­face and feeds them to the dis­charge sys­tem. This allows the fil­ter to be used ful­ly auto­mat­i­cal­ly and with­out inter­rup­tion for extend­ed peri­ods of time with­out the need for replace­ment. Advan­tages: Reli­able melt fil­tra­tion, extreme­ly low melt loss­es, good mix­ing for a homo­ge­neous melt.

PEARLO 350 EAC with liquid heated die plate for high throughputs

This under­wa­ter pel­letiz­ing sys­tem is specif­i­cal­ly designed for high through­puts, e.g. pro­duc­tion of 18,000 kg vir­gin poly­mer per hour. The unique knife design, togeth­er with opti­mal water and mate­r­i­al flow con­di­tions in the cut­ting cham­ber, deliv­ers not only ide­al, uni­form cool­ing effects, but also excel­lent pel­let qual­i­ty. Anoth­er inno­va­tion is the knife infeed sys­tem, which allows axi­al move­ment of the cut­ting shaft for pre­cise knife infeed as well as knife grind­ing even dur­ing oper­a­tion. Costs can be reduced through increased line avail­abil­i­ty and longer prod­uct runs.

Innovative strand pelletizing: advantages of the PRIMO Plus Flex

Short­est unguid­ed sec­tion com­bined with increased rotor diam­e­ter deliv­ers not only more torque but also top-qual­i­ty pellets.
Through­puts up to 5,000 kg/h
Prof­itable pro­duc­tion thanks to very high machine avail­abil­i­ty due to wear-resis­tant cut­ting tools
For appli­ca­tions such as pel­letiz­ing of base poly­mers, recy­cling prod­ucts, pro­cess­ing of high­ly filled com­pounds or ETPs into dif­fer­ent pel­let lengths, from micro­pel­lets to LFT, the prod­uct is the first choice for a reli­able dry-cut strand pel­letiz­ing process.

All extrex gear pumps with the new x6 class design have been com­plete­ly redesigned tech­ni­cal­ly and fea­ture redesigned com­po­nents, from the shafts to the bear­ings and seals. The inter­ac­tion between the com­po­nents has also been opti­mized. Spe­cial­ly devel­oped low-com­pres­sion gear tech­nol­o­gy enables very high pres­sures with a low shear gra­di­ent. This enables even high­er prod­uct qual­i­ty and vol­u­met­ric effi­cien­cy, as well as man­u­fac­tur­ing con­sis­ten­cy and reliability.

“Anoth­er brand first is Maag Brain. We are pleased to present this autonomous mon­i­tor­ing sys­tem, which marks anoth­er step towards Indus­try 4.0 and the Inter­net of Things (IoT). The sys­tem is designed to mon­i­tor pumps and ensure their max­i­mum effi­cien­cy dur­ing operation.”
