Post Industrial

Optima

Altero OPTIMA:

For the recycling of optimal-condition or post-industrial plastic. With a more compact design, the Altero OPTIMA pelletising line produces a top-quality pellet that is fully reusable in injection, blowing or extrusion process.

 

Optimised for processing:

  • PE film (HDPE, LDPE, LLDPE) or (BOPP, CPP, etc)
  • Regrinded material
  • Pre-shredded rigid material
  • Material without ink
  • Dry material
  • Without contamination

 

Typical applications:

  • Waste from the manufacture of bags, agricultural film, packaging, woven plastic bags, stretch wrap, etc
  • Edge trimming
  • Ground plastic waste from injection, blowing and extrusion machines
  • Locks or lumps from start up

 

OMTIMA LW: ideal for low-weight post-industrial material

  • High-performance compactor
  • Loading belt with metal detection
  • Roller feeder for film reels

 

OPTIMA HW: ideal for high-weight post-industrial material

  • Direct feeding of the extruder by hopper
  • Hopper and transport screw for feeding the main hopper

 

KEY POINTS:

  • High-performance compactor: It conditions the material so that the extruder can work at full performance and energy consumption is reduced. This is obtained by cutting, mixing, heating, and drying the material. Removing the residual moisture is equal to a first stage.
  • Double high-power degassing stage: Thanks to the screw optimum design when pre-heating the material in the compactor and to a powerful vacuum degassing, maximum efficiency can be obtained to eliminate gasses and volatiles.
  • Top brand components
  • Barrel cooling using thermal oil
  • Infra-red barrel heating
  • Automatic backflushing filter
  • Customisable interface
  • Maximum filtering power (up to 18% contaminants)
  • Greater convenience and safety
