Explore the innovative SIKOPLAST extruders, specifically designed for the efficient processing of light thermoplastic materials. These extruders stand out with a unique screw geometry that allows processing materials without the need for compaction or preliminary heat treatment. This technology significantly reduces thermal and oxidative stress, a common issue in traditional recycling systems, and enhances the quality of the produced pellets.

Extruders for Challenging Materials

SIKOPLAST's pelletizing extruders are engineered to handle materials that do not flow freely. Equipped as standard with feeding silos, these systems offer efficient feeding, reducing labor requirements. The adaptability and modularity of SIKOPLAST ensure excellent performance across a wide range of applications.

Extended Capacity and Versatility

SIKOPLAST systems are notable for their ability to process between 50 kg/h and over 1,800 kg/h, suitable for all types of thermoplastic polymers. The recycling process includes preliminary shredding, transport to the extruder silo, melting in hermetically sealed conditions, and producing high-quality pellets ready for distribution.

Diverse Applications

These systems are essential in recycling waste from the plastic processing industry, suitable for a wide range of materials, including printed and coated ones. SIKOPLAST offers significant advantages in the recycling process, generating high-quality pellets in an efficient process with variable throughput capacity.

Distinctive Design and Features

SIKOPLAST extruders are distinguished by their modular design, offering flexibility in system configuration and robust construction for easy operation and maintenance. They are also adaptable for the addition of additives, and the integration of screen changers increases the purity of the recycled material. The extruder can be equipped with a degassing zone and vacuum pump for critical materials.
