Extrusion International 5-2017

49 Extrusion International 5/2017 Maag today is formed by for successful and experienced com- panies: Maag Pump Systems, Automatik Plastics Machinery, Gala Industries and Reduction Engineering Systems have joined forces to help customers in plastics processing better than ever before. At the upcoming Fakuma, Maag will show system solu- tions from a single source. The highlight of the Maag booth will be the new PEARLO ® Un- derwater Pelletizer: Designed to process spherical pellets for rawmaterials, compounds,masterbatches, engineeringplastics, wood and nature filler-filled polymer composites, thermoplas- tics elastomers, hot-melt adhesives and gum bases at capacities that can reach 36,000 kg an hour. Other Maag products that will be on display at Fakuma 2017 include: The new x6 class Gear Pump offers improved volumetric effi- ciency and pressure capabilities that allow it to be operated at reduced rpms, shear rates and temperatures, resulting in re- duced residence time and energy consumption with improved production rates, polymer quality and pump life cycle. CSC Series Screen Changers feature a double-piston design that allows tailor-made adjustment of the filtration unit per the us- er’s specific process requirements while allowing the use of five different filter-cavity shapes within the same screen-changer housing: circular, oval, arched, leaf-disc and candle. Successfully applied by hundreds of customers, the provenWSG dry-cut strand pelletizing system with PRIMO E pelletizers pro- duces the highest quality of cylindrical pellets or microgranular compounds particularly suitable for further processing. Variable system configurations allow for optimal matching with your specific production requirements and also provide the utmost flexibility in terms of product changeover. The mill stand of a REX basicPLUS pulverizer, consisting of a mill chamber with patented disposable disc, drive, feeder and control, demonstrates the advantages ofMaags pulverizing sys- tems that are available for multiple materials and throughput ranges. “Our systems are designed to be a one-stop solution for its users as all of the components are produced by Maag companies. All of theMaag brands are focused on delivering exceptional value to their customers through a blend of product leadership and customer service,” saidAlaaddinAydin, VP/GMMaagGermany.
