EXHIBITION PREVIEW | K2022 MACHINERY
Above: Hellweg’s Smart Control system
capacity of up to 6 t/h. These include: the new Erema 406 laser filter, with 50% larger screening area; innovations in the plasticising unit, for high through- put and low specific energy consumption; and the PredictOn app, which can anticipate and eliminate imminent malfunctions based on continuous measurement of machine data. The increased screen area of the 406 laser filter helps to ensure lower pressure and temperature at the same throughput rate. The Quattro version of the LF 406 laser filter can filter up to 9,000 kg/hr of melt. Chemarema is a new series developed for mechanical material processing as part of the chemical recycling process. Chemarema features extrusion technology that can be adapted to the application requirements and is designed precisely for downstream chemical processes. In the outdoor area of K2022, Erema will have
live recycling demonstrations – where different waste streams will be processed – in co-operation with partners. The company’s in-house recycling segment – Pure Loop and Plasmac – will also present a range of machinery at the show. �

Gneuss will show its latest machinery innovations with a complete Omni recycling machine featuring a new 3C rotary feeder, an MRSjump 70 extruder, a
fully-automatic melt filtration system RSFgenius 90, and an online viscometer VIS, for the processing of 200 kg/h of undried and uncrystallised PET thermoform reclaim. The newly developed 3C Rotary Feeder makes it possible to use low bulk density materials without any external processing steps. A conveyor belt feeds shredded reclaim material into the hopper, where a fast-rotating disc with knives cuts, com- pacts and pre-conditions the material. The knives add energy into the material and start the heating and degassing process before the material is automatically fed into the MRSjump extruder, which is based on conventional single-screw technology but equipped with a multiple screw section for devolatilization. It enables very efficient decontami- nation of PET, whilst achieving requirements for direct food contact standards. As demand for PET bottle flakes outpaces supply and processors are looking for alternative feedstock, the MRSjump offers an excellent solution for PET thermoform, film or fibre recycling, while the newly-developed MRS cutter compactor makes it possible to use low bulk density materials. �

Hellweg Maschinenbau will be presenting extended options around the Smart Control system for its entire granulator range. It has added a hardware module to the Smart Control system capable of storing the power consumption of the machine it is fitted to. The software has the option of controlling granulator speed in increments of one, giving the user even more flexibility in tailoring machine parameters to requirements while the SECURE+ package adds safety features. As soon as it detects imminent granulator over- loads, it counteracts them so that rotor blockages can virtually be avoided.
Hellweg can now optionally equip all central granulators from the 260 series upwards with a new
