EXHIBITION PREVIEW | K2025 – MACHINERY
Right: Maag’s new Pearlo CS compact pelletising system
The Maag Group says it will unveil a host of innovative technologies centred around integrated system solutions in pelletising, extrusion, filtration, and recycling, as well as measurement and control. Among the exhibits will be the new Pearlo CS compact pelletising system which comes in two sizes each featuring a tangential cutting chamber and optimised cutter design. Elsewhere, the next generation NG-USG underwa- ter strand pelletising system enables greater throughput and superior pellet quality whilst boast- ing additional sensors to boost process stability, and the semi-automated EBG dust-reducing dry cut strand pelletising system offers flexible process control with reduced strand breaks, low moisture content, and minimised dust formation. The company will also show the Extrex6

pump for rigid PVC processing said to deliver unprecedented levels of process safety, product quality, and resource efficiency, alongside BRF & ERF double-stage melt filtration. As the BRF coarse melt filter enhances downstream equipment protection and ensures stable operation, the ERF fine filter guarantees exceptional pellet quality with minimal material loss. Combined, these filters offer a powerful combination for efficient, low-cost recycling solutions. �

MEAF Machines will launch its new Xtender technology at K2025 for use in the production of recycled PET film and sheet. This polymer melt co-processing technology, with exceptional mixing
34 COMPOUNDING WORLD | September 2025
and degassing properties, was developed by MEAF in collaboration with an Italian partner and increases the IV value of rPET using a patent- ed liquid state polycon- densation process. The Xtender technology can be retrofitted on both single-screw and twin screw extruders, where it is located directly downstream of the
extruder.
MEAF says the Xtender technology was developed with its core manufacturing values in mind, providing a cost-effective solution that can be modularly integrated into new and existing extrusion lines for both recycling as well as film and sheet production. �

Promix Solutions will be presenting various solutions for mixing, foaming and cooling with the focus on raw material savings with Microcell Technology and real-time monitoring and process control with the Visco-P inline viscometer. In extrusion, material accounts for 80 % of the CO2 footprint. Microcell Technology creates a microcel- lular foam structure in the polymer by adding environmentally friendly atmospheric gases. This reduces the product weight by 20-50%, resulting in significant material savings. Promix Microcell Technology is mainly used for films, sheets, foam
