April 2018 – To mark its 10th anniversary, eFACTOR3, LLC is celebrating its partnership with MAS and introducing a new machine design for its extrusion and melt filtration series to the US market at NPE2018!
Austrian extrusion machinery manufacturer MAS (Maschinen- und Anlagenbau Schulz GmbH) has established itself as a supplier of unconventional yet proven technologies that not only save space and energy, but allow its customers to do things that were previously thought to be impossible in the plastics recycling industry.
Join us in the celebration! Stop by South Hall Booth S15059 and check out three full size machines representing MAS’ latest product developments, including the MAS 75 conical, co-rotating, twin-screw Extruder, MAS CDF continuous melt filtration system and SC 700 Vacuum Oven.
MAS EXTRUDER: MAXIMUM ADDED VALUE IN PRODUCTION
Introducing a NEW DESIGN to the US Market at NPE2018!
The MAS Extruder combines the familiar and superior plasticization and homogenization of a co-rotating parallel twin screw extruder with the specific advantages of the conical screw design; a key element of this integrated recycling and compounding system.
The tapered screws provide a large feed opening, resulting in a large intake volume. From pellets and regrind to low bulk density materials (film and fibers), as well as additives and fillers, this extruder can process a wide range of materials.
TECHNICAL HIGHLIGHTS
• Compact design; Small footprint • Conical, co-rotational twin screw system • Superior homogenization • Large infeed opening • Process low density materials (film, fibers, etc.) • Low melt temperatures • Reduced energy consumption • No side feeders needed • Modular screws and barrel • Stable melt pressure
MAS CDF: FILTRATION OF THE HIGHEST CALIBER
Introducing a NEW DESIGN to the US Market at NPE2018!
The MAS patented CDF (Continuous Disc Filter) efficiently and continuously removes wood, paper, nonmelting foreign plastics, rubber, aluminum and similar contaminants from the melt stream.
A melt-pressure controlled scraper system removes the contamination from the surface of a rotating screen disc with minimal polymer loss.
Impurities are discharged continuously from the CDF, while the filtrated melt is forwarded to the pelletizing system.
DESIGN FEATURES • A very large active filtration area ensures: – high throughput – low melt pressure – long service life of the filtration disc(s) • Variable speed drive for filter disc(s) and discharge screw(s) • Optimal control of the discharge rate from the CDF • Scraper pressure controlled by melt pressure • Easy maintenance • Stable melt pressure
MAS SC 700: SAFE AND EFFICIENT VACUUM CLEANING
The SC 700 is a powerful vacuum oven designed for the reliable and gentle removal of thermoplastic contamination from delicate metallic parts such as filtration discs or extruder components.
No cleaning agents required. All contaminants are baked off under vacuum without combustion. This protects the components against local overheating and thus against annealing and mechanical damage.
The SC 700 can be installed in any room with a water supply, water drain and an electrical power supply.
TECHNICAL HIGHLIGHTS •For the removal of all thermoplastics • Fast-acting cleaning process •Simple and safe to operate • NEW extended door allows larger pieces to be cleaned • Maintenance-free operation • Gentle cleaning increases the lifespan of tools, filters, dies, etc. • Kind to the environment as no incineration takes place • Low energy consumption
