Introducing a feeding stabilization device that dramatically increases the extrusion volume and filler ratio in products! The 'Feeding Stabilization Device (FET)' developed by Coperion uses breathable materials in the feeding zone and performs vacuum suction. As a result, it can significantly increase the feed amount of unstable raw materials that are prone to causing feed limits. In a comparison of FET on and off in the ZSK45 Mc18, an increase of approximately 100% in extrusion volume has been achieved. 【Features】 ■ Increased filler ratio, increased extrusion volume ■ Reduced specific energy due to increased extrusion volume ■ Capable of handling fine, non-compressible fillers ■ Stabilization of the process ■ Compatible with small machines ■ Applicable to all sizes of ZSK/ZS-B series ■ Filter membranes can be easily replaced as needed ■ Patent registered (EP 1 977 877 B1, EP 2 218 568 B1) *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

The "Kombiplast Tandem Extruder" is a mixing equipment composed of a ZSK twin-screw extruder and an ES-A single-screw extruder. This product demonstrates excellent product quality and high economic efficiency in the mixing of materials with poor thermal stability, such as PVC and wire coating materials. It is utilized in various fields, including soft PVC for shoes and shoe soles, as well as rigid PVC and special compositions. 【Features】 ■ A mixing device suitable for products with low thermal stability and sensitivity to shear ■ Reduces the load on products by minimizing residence time ■ Precise resin temperature control ■ Effective removal of volatile components ■ Quick and easy disassembly for cleaning *For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or feel free to contact us.

At Coperion, we have developed a groundbreaking system for mechanical recycling. In conventional mechanical recycling, two extruders are typically used. The first extruder is used for melting and filtering the recycled material. The second extruder shapes the material into the desired form. With FilCo (Filtration Compounder), we achieve the above two processes with a single extruder. This reduces energy consumption by 50% and significantly decreases the required floor space.

Copelion has established a solid position in the plastic industry as a specialized manufacturer of twin-screw extruders. With the increase in the global population and the rising trend in the consumption of plant-based proteins, along with growing interest in healthy eating in Europe and the United States, Copelion Germany has established a food division and is conducting long-term technical research in collaboration with the German Institute of Food Technology. Among these, there is a growing interest in dry-type textured vegetable protein (TVP) and high-moisture type (HMMA), and the deep-groove extruder 'ZSK MEGA Volume (Mv)' is already making significant contributions as an alternative food for textured animal protein in various countries, including Europe and the United States. In addition to textured vegetable protein, the continuous production method characteristic of twin-screw extruders has also proven effective in other food processes, such as chocolate crumb. 【Features】 ■ Screw outer diameter to inner diameter ratio: 1.8 ■ Torque density: 11.3 Nm/cm³ ■ Screw size: 27mm-125mm ■ Screw speed: up to 1,800 rpm *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

Leveraging over 65 years of process know-how and technology cultivated in the plastic industry, we will carry out various plastic recycling more efficiently. Mechanical recycling of plastics not only contributes to society but also allows customers to gain greater profits by ensuring that the recycled products hold the same value as the original raw materials, rather than downgrading them. In the increasingly recognized field of chemical recycling, it is possible to perform chemical recycling of waste plastics while considering chlorine countermeasures. 【Examples of Plastic Recycling】 ■ Material recycling including multi-layer films ■ Mechanical recycling of waste plastics considering chlorine countermeasures ■ B to B recycling system for PET certified by FDA/EFSA * For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or feel free to contact us. * You can check the video on material recycling of multi-layer films below.

With the introduction of MEGAfeed, it has become possible to recycle fiber and film grinding products with extremely low bulk density, as well as flake recycling materials, in a more economical manner. By using "ZS-B MEGAfeed," it is now possible to handle plastics with a bulk density of approximately 0.03g/cm3, which were previously limited in extrusion volume and considered difficult to recycle. Experience efficient and economical recycling with the combination of this product and Coperion's "ZSK twin-screw extruder." 【Features】 ■ Significant increase in processing volume for fibers, films, and flakes, with great economic benefits ■ Compatible with raw materials that have low bulk density, around 0.03g/cm3 (testing is required) ■ If you are already using Coperion side feeders, they can be replaced (depending on the extruder size) ■ Testing can be conducted at Coperion in Germany *For more details, please feel free to contact us.
