37 TRADE SHOW PREVIEW PETplanet Insider Vol. 22 No. 09/21 Herbold Meckesheim - hall A6 booth 6312 Plastics recycling solutions The key for the ef fi ciency of the Her- bold Meckesheim granulators is the rotor design and the special construction design of the granulators in addition to the cutting geometry and the real double cross cut- ting action. Herbold can offer a multitude of rotor geometries, customised according to the individual application. The entire anti-wear coating of the housings and the exchangeable wear parts of special rotors have scrupulously been thought out and guarantee a long service life of the machines, easy to maintain. Washing technology The demand for high-per- formance and ef fi cient recycling plants is currently extremely high. Projects covering invest- ments of up to €12 million keep surging and high-end product qualities are in focus. The use of hydrocyclones in separation technology and the hot wash have been important compo- nents of the Herbold plant solu- tions and vital criteria of Herbold technology for years. Herbold has almost doubled its turnover business in the last 2 years. For the following applications in particular Herbold is able to offer tried-and-tested solutions:  Post-industrial post- consumer fi lm  Post-consumer rigid plastics  PET bottles  PET trays  Big-bags and other mono fi laments  Bottle crates and pulper residues The hot wash of fi lm has now become an essential compo- nent in a multitude of orders to yield the high qualities of post- consumer materials currently required. In the PET realm, plant technology continues to be set on ef fi ciency and product output. We can also showcase ef fi cient solutions for PET trays and due to a gentle treatment, only few fi nes loss in this brittle material flow. Herbold technology can also be used as a preliminary processing step for chemical recycling. Dry cleansing solu- tions, wash lines as well as Her- bold agglomerators tailor the input material for the chemical procedure solution. “We are committed to an expert and compre- hensive consultation with our customers,“ highlights Achim Ebel, Division Manager for Washing Lines – „A ready-made washing line does not exist at Herbold – in coopera- tion with our customers, it is an individual process to devise a solution that corre- sponds exactly to the application.” www.herbold.com INDUSTRY- LEADING SOLUTIONS FOR SUSTAINABLE APPLICATIONS Mold-Masters’ industry-leading Co-injection Multi-Layer BarrierTechnology offers proven processing capabilities for your sustainable applications.
