Extrusion machines are used to produce long plastic elements. Extruders use the extrusion process - melted plastic is forced through a die to form desired product. Depending on the process details, extrusion machines can be used to manufacturing of films, pipes, profiles etc.
The Reifenhäuser Group, leading manufacturer of extrusion machinery and components, will be exhibiting at Fakuma in Friedrichshafen from October 17 to 21, 2023.
In August 2023, the two Austrian family-run companies, Lindner Holding and the EREMA Group, founded the joint venture Blueone Solutions. Their objective is to bring the entire technological recycling process closer together - from shredding, sorting, washing and drying to extrusion -and to optimise this process along the value chain.
At K 2025, EREMA expands its portfolio to include high-performance twin-screw extruder technology. With the new TwinPro, the Austrian provider of plastics recycling solutions combines the advantages of a twin-screw extruder with the proven strengths of its Preconditioning Uni to be used for specific recycling applications.
In a market environment that faces economic uncertainty, the EREMA Group maintains its position as a leading provider of plastics recycling solutions. The Group's installed systems and components enabled the recycling of around 26 million tonnes of plastic waste worldwide during the financial year 2024/25.
The SKZ Plastics Center presents modern solutions for high-precision detection of even the smallest defects in plastic products. Companies benefit from comprehensive support - from selection and adaptation to development and seamless integration of automated testing systems.
At a time when the European plastics industry is seeking to modernize, reduce costs, and move toward more sustainable models, used machinery has gained unprecedented prominence.
Exciting news from our customer Magpet Polymer Pvt Ltd from India: The first part of the bottle-to-bottle recycling system developed collaboratively by Coperion and Herbold Meckesheim has been installed.
Specialized in the design and production of automations for the plastics processing industry, Moretto will present at the show the whole range of solutions developed to ensure energy efficiency and high performance.
There is a lot of potential in modernizing a compounding and extrusion line. The throughput of a system can be significantly increased, product quality improved, energy consumption reduced or overall equipment efficiency (OEE) enhanced.
