Our Product Highlights at K 2019


Purity is crucial for the quality of a recycled plastic. Especially in the production of food-grade recyclate, such as for a bottle-to-bottle process, the requirements are significantly higher than in simpler applications.

The high-precision FLAKE PURIFIER+ sorting system ensures the highest purity of high-quality flake material streams. Missing plastics, off-colours and metallic contaminants are separated automatically and reliably. Efficient, precise and profitable.


Companies that produce new granulate from recyclate use the FLAKE SCAN material analysis system in incoming goods inspection. In recycling, the device is used by quality laboratories in the outgoing goods inspection. In both areas, manual analyses have been carried out up to now, which take a lot of time and whose results are not reproducible. With FLAKE SCAN, on the other hand, reports on the composition of the plastic types and on off-colour components can be produced within a few minutes in consistently high quality and with reproducible results.



Even the smallest metal particles in the plastic melt are often the cause of costly malfunctions during injection moulding, extrusion and blow moulding. With the increasing processing of regranulates and regrind, the proportion of these metal impurities is rising. Clogged nozzles, filters and hot runner systems often enough lead to production stoppages, downtimes and delivery delays. The GF metal separator is used in suction or pressure feed lines to protect injection moulds and processing machines.

It detects all magnetic and non-magnetic metal contaminants (steel, stainless steel, aluminium, ...) - even if they are enclosed in the product. Metal contaminants are separated out via the separating unit ("Quick-Flap").



Granule loss in production means a reduction in productivity for manufacturers and processors of plastics, in addition to the subsequent impact on the environment. Material rejected by metal separators contains a high proportion of metal contaminants and must be disposed of, which means additional costs and loss of value. With the new RE-SORT metal separation unit, contaminated plastic granulate can be reliably cleaned of metal foreign bodies and recovered for reuse in production.

When the regenerated material, regrind etc. is fed to the metal separation unit within the central material handling system, RE-SORT functions as a metal pre-cleaning station. As a compact and mobile stand-alone unit, the unit is used throughout the production and material storage areas.



The PROTECTOR metal separator is installed directly above the material intake of an injection moulding machine, extruder or blow moulding machine. It detects all magnetic and non-magnetic metal contaminants (steel, stainless steel, aluminium, ...) - even if they are enclosed in the product. Metal contaminants are separated out via the separating unit ("Quick-Valve")


The metal separator RAPID VARIO-FS is used to inspect bulk materials in free-fall conveying lines. Due to the separate design of the detection and separation units, the position of the bad outlet can be rotated according to the position of the collecting vessel.

It detects all magnetic and non-magnetic metal contaminants (steel, stainless steel, aluminium, ...) - even if they are enclosed in the product. Metal impurities are separated out via the reject flap ("Quick Flap"). The RAPID VARIO-FS metal separator is mainly used in industries with low hygienic requirements.
