"NPE is extremely important to us," says Manfred Dobersberger, Managing Director of PURE LOOP, at the opening of the largest plastics trade fair in the Americas. "Nine years ago, we presented our company and the integrated ISEC shredder-extruder combination to the plastics world." Since then, the technology that is used to repelletize production waste consisting of various polymers in the form of films, fibers, textiles, pipes, injection-molded parts and many more, has proven itself worldwide. "Our ISEC system is a material all-rounder," emphasizes Dobersberger. Even the most demanding applications, such as soft and hard PVC or glass-fiber reinforced plastics, are carefully prepared and processed into high-quality recycled pellets. "We can handle these complex requirements because, in recent years, our team has gained the necessary experience while dealing with a wide variety of niches and special applications. It is this knowledge and expertise that has gone into the design of this unique machine," adds Dobersberger.
The key to the technology lies in the gentle treatment of the material and eliminating the possibility of contamination. The shredder and extruder are powered by one drive shaft on the ISEC evo. The patented double feed ram system ensures that the extruder is fed continuously. Thanks to the conical transition, the material is compacted and oxygen is reduced.
