Conventional strand pelletizing often shows a high amount of strand breaks and a big amount of dust which is generated. In underwater pelletizing you have a quick freezing of the die, bad pellets, a high moisture content as well as high wear. Get away with these obstacles – check out the new EBG System!

The CIS system from MAAG Group features additional water supply directly through the center of the die plate. This leads to more water in front of the die plate and at each blade, which significantly reduces agglomerates and tails, allows for enhanced pellet cooling while operating at max output rates.

The virgin polymer industry expects perfect pellets at highest profitability. That requires a continuously operating pelletizing system with high performance on pellet shape – plus high throughput with a decreasing number of fines.

Systems from MAAG Group have long shaped underwater strand pelletizing. Now we are presenting the new generation of M²-USG. With structural optimizations and additional sensor technology, it provides even greater stability for processes. This makes it possible to achieve not only higher throughput rates, but also better pellet quality.

Copolymers such as EVA, ABS or SAN are increasingly conquering the global markets due to their positive properties. An annual forecast growth in production volume of around 8% requires smart and efficient production options for future investments, starting with the extruder followed by the pump, start-up valve, quality filter and subsequent pelletizing. For higher throughput and exact temperature control to shorten the residence in the line, less screen dwell time and many screen changes are often accepted as trade-offs together with a higher energy consumption. Rethink copolymer processing – with MAAG’s arched type continuous screen changer with integrated DV-position!

The Maag Group has always offered various pump, filtration and pelletizing systems for the recycling of plastics. Two new solutions for the filtration and pelletizing have now been added to the portfolio which are particularly suitable as an entry option for professional recycling applications.

Extrusion operations require extremely reliable gear pump systems with high output consistency and a configuration to suit each application. The modular design of extrex® gear pumps easily meet the requirements for these diverse applications. The extrex6 EC gear pump is generally designed for PVC applications. The new pump design is optimized to the needs of processing PVC. All pumps are equipped with ST design (flow optimized). In addition, the process temperature is controlled by an innovative shaft cooling solution.
