EXHIBITION PREVIEW | K2025 – MACHINERY
At K2025, the focus for Amandus Kahl will be on dust-free pelleting of additives and processing plastic waste for chemical recycling. On its stand, the specialist for process and plant engineering will present its flat die pellet mills and demonstrate how powdery materials and temperature-sensitive plastic fractions that are generated after production or end use can be converted into dimensionally stable pellets in an energy-efficient, gentle manner. The company will also focus on plastic waste
recycling. Its larger pellet mills, such as the 39-1000 and 45-1250, prepare large-volume, inhomogene- ous, and temperature-sensitive plastic waste for further recycling by significantly increasing the bulk density and ensuring a consistent pellet shape. This makes the material easier to handle and more efficient to process in an extruder, while also reducing transport and storage costs. Additionally, the Kahl belt dryer reduces and homogenizes moisture in the product before it is pelleted, ensuring stable process conditions. �

Amut says its bottle-to-packaging lines are de- signed to process 100% post-consumer PET bottle flakes into certified food grade thermoforming foil, FDA and EFSA approved. The lines are designed with a net width from 1,000 to 2,000 mm configura- tion with one layer, three layers or up to five layers, upon request. The thickness ranges from 0.15 to 2 mm, and the output is up to 2,000 kg/h. �

Bausano has developed the E-GO R series of extrusion and repelletising technologies for the recycling of polyolefins, such as HDPE, LDPE, and PP, derived from industrial and post-consumer waste. The E-GO R extruders, ranging from 45/37 to 210/37 L/D, can process up to 1,500–1,800 kg/hr of non-free-flowing material and 1,700–2,000 kg/hr of free-flowing material. The company says E-GO R extruders are ideal
for recycling lightweight materials with a moisture content of 5-6%. Thanks to a high-performance double degassing system, residual moisture and volatile substances are removed during the process, thus preventing the formation of defects in the pellets.
Bausano says innovation will take centre stage with two live demos on its stand. Visitors will have the opportunity to interact directly with the AI-based Bausano Ranger interface, one of the suite’s core modules, installed on two high-perfor- mance extruders: a counter-rotating twin-screw MD 130/25 for compound production; and a single-

Buss, the Swiss developer of co-kneader technol- ogy, produces the Compeo series of machines for polymer compounding. These machines have a modular structure which can be precisely config- ured to meet the specific compounding application. Maintenance outlay is kept low by using highly resistant surface-hardened materials in the process zone. Different machine sizes mean that throughputs can be achieved in low, medium and high ranges. The Compeo Lab is a versatile laboratory and pilot compounding line for development, process optimization and small production runs. It is suitable for a wide range of applications, from shear-sensitive materials to demanding engineer- ing plastics. This user-friendly laboratory com- pounder rounds off the Compeo series with throughputs of 50-100 kg/h at the lower end. �

BBE will be appearing together with its parent company Barmag and associated brands, showcas- ing its expertise in extrusion, filtration, and inte- grated recycling solutions. A highlight promises to be the open house event at the BBE Technical Centre, which will feature a team of experts and live demonstrations showing PET waste being recycled on the test facilities and spun directly into high- quality recycled yarn (POY) which is then further processed using BBE’s JeTex air texturizing system with a new auto-doffing unit. Also on display will be the latest Cobra filter, which enables continuous uninterrupted operation with consistently high filtration quality, and a VacuFil fully integrated system for PET recycling via liquid-state polycondensation, which combines large-area, gentle melt filtration with precise IV control, ensuring consistently high melt quality. With a capacity of 150-4,000 kg/h, the modular concept allows flexible adaptation to different material qualities and areas of application. The central component of the system is Visco+, the liquid-state polycondensation unit for targeted viscosity adjustment. Continuous adjustment of the IV results in a homogeneous melt with optimal processing properties making it ideal for high- quality end products in the fibre, film, or packaging industries.
