43 TRADE SHOW REVIEW PETplanet Insider Vol. 22 No. 10/21 www.petpla.net Recycling line - RecoStar dynamic Starlinger showed its latest recycling technology for the processing of fi lms, fi bres, and washed post-consumer waste from materials such as PE, PP, PET / PES, PA, PLA, PS and PPS. Ecological, economical, energy-saving These are the three keywords, Starlinger uses to describe the new RecoStar dynamic recycling line. The machine concept is characterised by a energyeffi cient production process as well as a high grade of automation, which accounts for reliable and constant production, higher output, and wider range of applications says Starlinger. The RecoStar dynamic will be the fi rst of the Starlinger recycling lines to carry the “rEco” stamp. By using exclusively motors with the best effi ciency ratings, energy consumption and CO2 emissions are reduced signifi cantly. Features such as energy recovery systems in various process steps as well as infrared heating further slim down the energy costs for machine operation. Designed for recycling plastic scrap from industrial and post-consumer applications, the new recycl ing l ines are especially suited for processing hygroscopic, wet and/or preground and foamed materials. The Smart feeder prepares the material prior to extrusion through performing simultaneously the following:  Shrink & cut  Mix & homogenise  Active feed & control  Rotate & friction  Temperature & dry The dynamic automation package regulates that the system is running at the best operating point. Consequently, higher output is achieved with lower energy consumption, and higher levels of humidity can be processed. The produced highquality regranulate is suitable for a wide range of end use applications. The RecoStar dynamic series is available in six sizes and covers an output range of 150-2,600 kg/h. Technical Data  Output: 150-2,600 kg/h (depends on extruder dimensions and the material to be processed)  Energy consumption: 0.2-0.35kWh/kg  Diameter Smart feeder: 900-2,050mm  Smart feeder drive power: 37-400kW  Extruder screw diameter (L/D): 65(24;40)-215(24;40)mm  Extruder AC drive: 45-560 kW www.starlinger.com
