Extrusion Asia Edition 1-2021

45 Extrusion Asia Edition 1/2021 tically, without disruptions over long periods and without hav- ing to replace the screen. The advantages: ultra-low melt losses and good mixing and homogenizing of the melt. Another highlight in the MAAG Group booth is the PEARLO ® underwater pelletizing system for the highly efficient and flex- ible production of spherical pellets with throughputs of up to 36,000 kg/h. Compact and modularly structured, it requires on- ly a very small footprint. Electronically controlled EAC technolo- gy guarantees precise pressure of the pelletizing knives during operation, thereby enabling long runtimes free of interruptions with consistently high pellet quality. In the same equipment segment, MAAG Group shows a BAOLI ® -3 third-generation dry-cut pelletizer for processing hard and soft materials. The key components of these pelletizers are manufactured in Germany, and all versions meet the require- ments of applicable safety standards in Germany. Maag has more than 60 years’ experience in pelletizers and has already installed around 800 BAOLI pelletizers in China. As with previ- ➠ MAAG Group www.maag.com ous BAOLI generations, the automated cutting chamber locking system enables fast handling while supporting operator safety. From its extensive range of gear pumps, MAAG Group will be presenting the extrex ® gear pump in x6 class design at China- plas. As with all x6 versions, MAAG Group has completely re- engineered and redesigned the components, from the shafts through to the bearings and seals, and optimized the interac- tion of the components. Specially developed gear teeth with low compression allow very high pressures to be achieved with low shear rates. The result is a further increase in achievable product quality, volumetric efficiency, as well as production consistency and safety. www.smart-extrusion.com Germany Austria and Switzerland Italy Eastern Europe Benelux countries Scandinavia Other Asia Russia South America North America Other Europe 34 600 + average monthly visits Geographic distribution of Smart_Extrusion readers, % The only website collecting information about smart technologies of extrusion 19 8,5 7,8 9,3 1,1 0,8 1 2,2 2 17,9 11,6 18,9
