High-performance pressing for plastics pelletizing plants

Pressing is a crucial step in any pelletizing plant because pressing can significantly increase bulk density. Compared to the starting material, the compactness of the pellets favors lower transport costs in conjunction with increased storage capacities. In addition, the conversion reduces heavy dust generation, especially in the case of small-structured pellets. The standardization of the material size represents another advantage — the pellets produced all have a predetermined size, so that the conveying systems can be operated reliably. This company offers variable machines and press types that cover different throughput capacities and are individually equipped for different bulk solids and materials. For example, the small press (photo) is particularly suitable for small pellet production from powdery and lumpy products. It offers low-effort installation. Furthermore, the 14-175 press model enables dry granulation before subsequent pressing of the tablet mass. Pellet presses and mills can be specified with GMP certification for use in pharmaceutical applications. Hall 10, Stand B51 — Amandus Kahl GmbH & Co. KG, Reinbek, Germany
