Flake Feed®

FF

Transforms Rigid Plastics into Granules Quickly, with a Bright and Homogeneous Finish

"High-Performance
Granule Solution"

Flake Feed® FF

Pre-shredded and sized plastic regrind is automatically fed into the feeding hopper.

Thanks to the algorithmic control system, the side-feeding screw and main extruder screw are automatically adjusted to optimum speeds, ensuring the most efficient operation of the line. The specially designed screw profile for rigid regrind and the powerful vacuum system provide excellent plasticization and effective removal of unwanted gases.

Depending on the contamination level of the material, different filtration options are available to achieve high-purity and homogeneous granules.

Operating Principle

Plastic waste is loaded into the feeding hopper after being shredded and sized.

Thanks to its algorithmic control program, the system automatically synchronizes the side-feeding screw and the main extruder screw, ensuring operation at optimum speeds.

This allows the material to be processed with maximum efficiency and minimum operator intervention.

Thanks to the specially designed screw profile and powerful vacuum system, the material is melted and plasticized, while gases within the melt are effectively removed.

Filters selected according to the contamination level purify the melt, enabling the production of high-quality, homogeneous granules.

Finally, the granules are brought to the ideal size through horizontal cutting, vibration and centrifuge systems, dewatered and transferred to the filling station.

All processes are carried out in an integrated manner on a single extruder, ensuring energy efficiency and high capacity.
