Smart Recycling strengthens circular economy

With Smart Recycling, the WITTMANN Group is bringing its full system solution expertise into play. The product packages boost both efficiency and quality standards of in-line recycling.

Every Smart Recycling package consists of a granulator, a mobile dryer and a dos-ing unit. All system components are selected and coordinated to suit the individual requirements of the material, the application and the operational circumstances in-volved in each case, in order to produce a top-quality regrind with highest possible efficiency. 

An integral part of every Smart Recycling solution is a Feedmax Clean material loader specially developed by WITTMANN to meet the more and more stringent re-quirements of the circular economy. During material conveyance, the Feedmax Clean reaches extremely high separation degrees of up to 80 per cent (of particles < 1000 µm), thus removing considerably more dust particles and fine parts from the granulate than comparable appliances on the market. This ensures an extremely high consistency of quality in injection molding. Thanks to thorough dedusting, re-cycled materials can also be used safely for qualitatively demanding applications. The first customers for this new sales concept are coming, for example, from the au-tomotive industry.

The target group for Smart Recycling generally consists of all plastics processors practicing in-house recycling of sprue and scrap parts.
