Automated recovery line separates ABS and metal
The Hansgrohe Group has commissioned a fully automated recycling line for processing metallized scrap parts from injection moulding production at its Offenburg plant. It was developed in close cooperation with the high-voltage experts from Impulstec and the mill manufacturer Getecha. An almost seamless raw material cycle can now be realized.

Packaging and sealing systems (www.polyformnext.de)
Circulation solutions for bottles and canisters
As a manufacturer of granulators for shredding production residues and waste, Getecha is well established in plastics and recycling technology. However, the company now also equips its customers with system solutions that cover other stages in the life cycle of polymer products. An illustrative example of this is the realization of packaging and capping systems for blow-moulded bottles and canisters.

Exhibitor comments on Fakuma 2023 (www.polyformnext.de)
Eva Rosenberger, Getecha
Fakuma 2023 will take place in Friedrichshafen from October 17 to 21. KUNSTSTOFF MAGAZIN asked the exhibitors: What expectations do you have of Fakuma and what trends and developments do you see in the plastics industry?

Material shredding for the cycle
In addition to the implementation of highly automated material circulation systems for the plastics processing industry, high-performance granulators are Getecha's core competence. The plastic parts manufacturer Lechner decided to purchase two standard granulators from the Roto-Schneider line.

Guillotine for pre-shredding
With the GH 300 HYD, Getecha presents a new guillotine for pre-shredding tasks where continuous cutting is not possible or where electrically operated guillotines reach their limits.

From extrusion to shredding
High-strength rigid foam materials are an important material technology component for the realization of modern lightweight constructions for aircraft and automobile construction or in medical technology. Their production is based, among other things, on the processing of high-quality plastic granules from extruded semi-finished copolymers.

Efficient use of processing residues
At K, Getecha will be providing information on how processing waste from injection molding, extrusion, thermoforming and blow molding technology can be efficiently shredded and reused in a resource-saving manner.

Recovery of extrusion waste (www.polyformnext.de)
From regrind to recyclable material
Everywhere in the plastics industry, waste and residues from production are reused as recyclable materials. A manufacturer of drive belts was able to organize the recycling of plastic granulate from the edge trims of its extrusion lines using standardized granulators from Getecha.

High-quality recycled materials (www.polyformnext.de)
Individual variety with a high degree of automation
Individual complete solutions for the production-related shredding and recycling of plastic waste must take into account the specific characteristics of the respective processing methods. Some of these customer-oriented granulators for shredding processing waste from injection molding and blow molding technology will be presented at K2019.

What remains of the capsule
During the process of thermoforming espresso cups from multi-layer plastic films, rejects are produced. With process-integrated system solutions comprising extraction and shredding technology, Getecha ensures that this waste is directly removed and recycled.

Foils from three rolls and stacks of plates
Two years ago, packaging manufacturer Pro-Pac built a new hall at its Vechta site with the aim of centralizing its shredding technology. The focus: complete solutions from Getecha.

It all comes down to sensitivity
Getecha supplies fully automatic solutions for capping canisters. When canisters are mechanically sealed with screw caps, accuracy and flexibility are as important as "sensitivity".

Recycling technology adapted (www.polyformnext.de)
Shredding made to measure
Customized and application-specific granulators enable more efficient size-reduction solutions for a variety of applications Examples from the injection moulding and blow moulding sectors, among others, will be presented at Fakuma.

Cutting mills between compact design and performance
A space-saving clean room grinder and a robustly designed compact grinder are designed to make the processing of plastics more efficient.

Central shredding (www.polyformnext.de)
Flexible grinder with options
Thanks to several feed options, a grinder on display at Fakuma will be able to take on a wide range of size reduction tasks and, depending on the boundary conditions, replace several grinders.

Greater efficiency without dancers
Hopper granulators, which can also be used in extrusion, promise some flexibility in use. This also applies to some other granulator features that were presented at K 2016.

Central and large granulators for blow molding (www.polyformnext.de)
Throughput is not the only thing that counts
The nominal, theoretically possible throughput rate is only one indicator of the performance of the size reduction technology. Particularly when used in blow molding technology, other boundary conditions play a role in the selection of central and large granulators.

"Complex, but not uncharted territory"
In addition to a high-performance large-scale mill, complex recycling processes require various other technologies in order to be able to operate processing lines efficiently.
