Granulators / Reclaim

 

UPM Reclaim System

UPM Granulator Reclaim System UPM can design & install custom engineered reclaim systems of reject mouldings in to the granulator and the regrind de-dusted; checked for contamination and metered back in to the process eliminating any labour involvement.

A typical application as illustrated based on reclaiming reject air inlet manifolds weighing 3 kg injection moulded in 3 parts from 35% glass filled PA6 and automatically welded with 100% inspection.

Reject mouldings are automatically loaded to the infeed conveyor passing through a tunnel metal detector for ferrous / non ferrous contamination prior to granulation. The regrind is then conveyed via a mechanical screw conveyor to the centrifugal sifter to remove dust / fines before passing to a final metal detector ensuring all regrind is totally clean prior to being dried and metered back with the virgin material at a throughput of 180 kilos per hour.

The equipment shown in the photo are SYSCON heavy duty belt conveyor, tunnel metal detector, UPM Granulator with (optional) mechanical screw conveyor, KEK 300 centrifugal sifter, free fall metal separator and a two-way bagging unit.
