Extrusion 3-2018

52 kompakt Extrusion 3/2018 ➠ Maag Pump Systems AG www.maag.com production. Electronically controlled EAC technology guarantees precise feed of the pelletizing knives during operation, thereby ensuring long runtimes free of interruptions with consistently high pel- let quality. extrex ® x6 class Gear Pump: This new and unique melt pump design delivers the needed volumetric efficiency at the highest counter pressures and with the lowest amount of shear stress. This re- sults in a reliable and gentle transfer, boosting and metering for a wide range of thermoplastic polymers, with no ad- verse effects on pro- duct quality. EBG Belt Conveyor Pelletizing System: The belt conveyor pelletiz- ing system EBG is spe- cifically designed for the compounding of water-sensitive or highly filled (>60%) or fragile products. One of its advantages is the easy handling for start up and line cleaning because of lightweight design and mesh belt quick exchange. It is perfect- ly dedicated for pro- n Maag announced that it will be exhibi- ting at the upcoming PLAST Milan . Maag will be showcasing a variety of its market-leading products and processes for the plastics industry, including: PEARLO ® Underwater Pelletizer: The high-performance underwater pelletiz- ing system from Maag for making sphe- rical pellets. It combines technologies from Gala and Automatik for efficient and flexible use in challenging applicati- ons with throughput of up to 36,000 kg/h. Compact and modularly designed, it requires only a very small footprint in Products and Processes for the Plastics Industry duction of brittle highly filled com- pounds because of reduced stretching and stress on strands and active convey- ing from extrusion die to pelletizer in- take. The belt system prevents strand breakages by continuous take up with- out any strand deflection. Claudio Bonafede, General Manager: “We are happy to show our recently de- veloped and advanced pelletizers for the plastic processing industry during Plast Milan. In addition to our Maag products, in hall 15, booth C32, Ettlinger who re- cently joined the Maag family, will be dis- playing performance-enhanced melt fil- ter type ERF350, introduced to the mar- ket at the end of 2017. It reliably filters plastic melts with impurities such as pa- per, aluminium, wood and elastomers or plastics that do not melt. Impurity levels as high as 18% can be removed with ex- tremely low melt losses. Designed for high efficiency, it achieves a maximum throughput of 3800 kg/h, depending on the type of melt and degree of impurities as well as the selected filtration rating. It is suitable for all commonly used Polyole- fins and polystyrenes as well as a large number of engineered plastics such as styrene copolymers, TPE and TPU.” Plast Milan: Hall 13, booth B31 Produktion ist etablierter Standard bei der Verpackungsherstellung“, hält Andreas Dirnberger, Business Develop- ment Manager für den Bereich Inhouse Recycling bei der EREMA Group, fest. „Einfache Bedienung, ein hoher Auto- matisierungsgrad, hohe Maschinenver- fügbarkeit und vor allem stabile Rezy- klatqualität sind ausschlaggebende Kri- terien bei einer Kaufentscheidung.“ Am EREMA Messestand werden im Live-Be- n Von 29. Mai bis 1. Juni können sich Besucher der Plast Milan von der Recy- clingqualität der INTAREMA ® 1108 T selbst überzeugen. Am EREMA Messe- stand werden Ausschussrollen aus der PE Verpackungsfolien-Herstellung live zu Qualitätsrezyklaten verarbeitet.
