Silage Film for Bale Wrap
Newly developed formulations from SML make it possible to manufacture high-quality silage film on its cast stretch fi lm lines. Compared with the manufacturing of blown silage fi lm, this new approach offers some key advantages
Next Generation Lines of Twin-screw Extruders Introduced in the U.S. and Canada
Bausano announced the introduction of its next generation lines of twin-screw plastic extruders in the U.S. and Canadian markets. The two renewed product lines are best suited for several types of extrusion, pipes, granules, wood plastic composites (WPC), profiles and materials used in the medical industry
Investment in Austrian Recycling Technology
The Pan Era Group is progressing on one of its most ambitious growth steps so far, which is the establishment of yet another plastic recycling plant in Cikande, Indonesian. It is at this new location that Pan Era Group relies on Austrian recycling competence and has ordered an ES-compound extrusion line with an output of 1000 kg PE per hour from MAS
Reliable, Trouble-Free Melt Filtration as a Decisive Factor for the Economical Use of Reclaim in Plastics Processing
If inhouse waste and heavily contaminated postconsumer waste are added to the production process, foreign particles are introduced into the melt fl ow. These have to be fi ltered out effi ciently. Several filtration systems require a production interruption when changing screens. With the Gneuss Rotary Technology, the conditions in the melt fl ow are permanently constant
Raffi a Producer Now Recycles in One Step
Post-industrial recycling of PP raffi a, woven sacks, tapes, non-woven/woven could be challenging at times for some producers. It’s diffi cult to process in one single step due to size and strength of the material waste. Polystar’s Repro-One recycling machine provides solutions to many problems
BOPP and BOPE Inline Coating – Perfect Barrier, Improved Recyclability
The inline coating technology offers decisive advantages for BOPP and BOPE applications. Brückner’s newly developed technology is installed between the machine film orientation (MDO) and the transverse film orientation (TDO) process
