start-ups, while a very wide range of materials can be processed without any freezing at the die-plate. Econ describes the EUP50 as a compact, mobile and


fully integrated unit that is particularly suited to small batch production with frequent material and colour changes. For, example it can be used to produce masterbatch with specifi c carrier resins in relatively low quantities. Cleaning is both quick and effi cient; the integrated centrifugal dryer can be cleaned out in a few minutes, claims the company. The EUP50 and the larger EUP150 model are now


offered with an optional PLC controller, which costs around 10-15% extra compared to a conventional control system. In addition, Econ has added continuous band water fi ltration as an option for all of its underwa- ter models. The system continuously fi lters out fi nes and contaminants in the circulating process water, eliminating the need to clean the tank at every product change.


With the addition of the latest model, Econ’s EUP


underwater pelletizers are now offered in seven standard sizes covering throughputs from 2 to 6,500 kg/hour.  www.econ.eu


Gala has developed its Heat Flux die-plate to allow its underwater pelletizing systems to


handle temperature-sensitive materials more effi ciently. The special die-plate is designed so that it insulates the heated body of the die-plate from the process water contacting the die face. It has demonstrated energy cost savings of up to 70%, as well as increased production


Econ’s EUP50 underwater pelletizer is designed for

>>The advance into a new performance dimension of compounding technology. The new ZSK Mc18


twin screw extruder of Coperion, formerly Werner & Pfl eiderer, is the most pro- ductive high performance ZSK of all time. With a specifi c torque of 18 Nm/cm3


it stands for


considerable throughput increases with improved product quality and the widest processing window on the market – to provide you with a unique technology advantage. That’s what we mean when we say “confi dence through partnership”. >>www.coperion.com
