ed its product line to include Break Machinery. The Italian company offers a range of
automatic and efficient filtration equip- ment and recently introduced the Duo self-cleaning double filter system. This new design is considered extremely suitable for fine or course filtration, and can filter heavy levels of contaminants with the help of a double screen design which achieves maximum
productivity while guaranteeing high product quality. The Duo offers a constant

pressure operation to maximise line productivity with minimal waste for even the highest contaminated
materials. The new geometry of the scraper disc and the innovative discharge system allows contamination to be removed in a rapid and controlled manner, while the shape of the six-blade rotating scraper disc is said to offer excellent cleaning, even at low rotational speeds, while also preventing filtered contaminants from returning into the melt. The company said the unit is simple to operate and the general design reduces cleaning and replacement times for both the filter and blades. “We are continually looking to find the best equipment solutions to enhance our portfolio we provide to our customers,” said Sandy Guthrie, ADG President. “Taking the best quality machinery and marrying that with our advanced industry knowl- edge allows us to help our customers transform plastic scrap into high-value raw material.”
Boosting efficiency At last year’s Fakuma trade show in Friedrichshafen, Germany, Britas Recycling Solutions, part of the NGA group, presented the CMF-BF, its continuous
piston screen changer with backflush function which the company claims is a “clear leader” on the market. Heiko Henss, Britas CEO, said: “The loss of melt is considerably reduced [and] the process is more efficient and quicker. That means our custom- ers save time and money.” The piston screen changer series includes four filter types, both discontinuous and continuous, which between them cover all customer require- ments. Depending on the required throughputs and different operating modes, customers can choose between the discontinuous version mainly with one piston, and the continuous version with two pistons. By virtue of optimal design of the melt channels,
filters, and breaker plate geometries, deposits and black spots are mostly avoided and the CMF-BF can clean the filters automatically. In an attachment module, there are two backflush pistons which facilitate an automatic backflush procedure. During a filter change, one of the two pistons is moved into a backflush position and the melt inlet of the corresponding filter is interrupted. A small melt flow of the material, which has already been cleaned, is separated and guided backwards through the filter. This procedure is repeated automatically for the second filter. The CMF-BF is available with fluid heating, steam heating, or as a high-temperature version.
