Moretto will present solutions for plastics processing at Plast 2026 in Milan, focusing on drying, gravimetric dosing, material traceability and recycling. The company says that the development of new equipment is based on a combination of experience, research facilities, advanced simulation tools and a vertically integrated production model. According to the company, this approach makes it possible to design solutions tailored to the requirements of specific processes and customers. Moretto also states that it holds 169 international patents, and that its own capabilities in research, testing and application support remain an important element of its technological development. At the centre of this model are both a research laboratory equipped with modern instruments and simulators, and a multifunctional showroom where R&D activities, testing and training are carried out. The company indicates that this infrastructure is intended to accelerate development cycles and facilitate cooperation with customers in the implementation of new solutions.
The company notes that since 2009 it has been using Leonardo, a mathematical simulator for parallel computing, which supports technological development and the analysis of design and process details. In Moretto's view, the courage to pursue innovation requires going beyond existing knowledge and individual experience, and in the field of mathematics and physical phenomena, artificial intelligence can provide additional support.
Research, vertical integration and production expansion
Moretto links its technological position to an industrial model of vertical integration. This means handling key stages of product development in-house, from prototype design and industrialisation to installation, training and after-sales support. As the company emphasises, direct control over processes and key components is intended to ensure continuous quality control of products and services.
The company also points to the importance of relationships with partners, built through needs analysis and technical consultancy. According to the company, the combination of specialist expertise and vertical integration makes it possible to carry out highly complex projects.
Another element of this strategy is the expansion of its production base. Moretto reports that the new plant with a total area of 13,000 m2 will be physically and functionally integrated with the existing facilities. The aim is to optimise industrial planning and increase the ability to respond to customer needs.
Service support and plastics recycling
The company also announces the development of service support through the implementation of a new AI-assisted service desk platform. This solution is intended to improve the analysis of requests and speed up the preparation of accurate responses, supporting the expert team in interpreting more complex issues. Moretto points out that remote connection enables rapid intervention and is expected to support operational continuity.
The statement also devotes considerable attention to recycling. The company believes that the recovery, treatment and reintegration of polymers into production processes reduce environmental impact, lower the consumption of virgin raw materials and cut CO2 emissions. Moretto stresses that recycling is not limited solely to the reuse of material, but also includes process optimisation in order to achieve high efficiency and maintain the required quality standards.
Among the solutions intended for recycling applications, the company lists Hyper Cut, a low-speed grinder for various types of waste parts, MPK, a crystalliser for amorphous materials, and DGM Gravix Maxi, a gravimetric batch blender also suitable for flakes.
New products for Plast 2026
At Plast 2026, Moretto intends to premiere several new solutions. These will include four new models from the X Comb series, from 17 to 20, intended for processing engineering plastics at throughputs of up to 60 kg/h. The company highlights their compact footprint of 0.6 m2, as well as new functional and design solutions.
The renewed Delphy manual manifold with RFID control has also been announced. It is intended to increase safety, precision and traceability in material-to-machine allocation processes. The stainless steel construction is designed to ensure safe material transport without contamination risk.
Another new product will be DGM Gravix mini, a gravimetric batch blender designed for micro-dosing applications at production rates of up to 60 kg/h. According to the company, devices from the DGM Gravix series, thanks to high precision, reliability and AI integration, set new standards in dosing for plastics processing.
One Wire Plus will also be featured at the stand, a material conveying system that automatically recognises and applies conveying parameters. Once the source and destination are defined, the system calculates the appropriate parameters independently, regardless of distance and material quantity. Moretto believes that these solutions represent a significant step forward compared with traditional systems in terms of energy efficiency, ease of use and performance.
The company invites visitors to Hall 22, Stand A81-B96.
