  • Interview with Magpet Polymer: Closing the Loop with New Bottle-to-Bottle-Recycling Plant

    The Indian preform and plastic packaging manufacturer Magpet Polymer Pvt Ltd recently decided to build a new plant for the recycling of PET bottles and equip it with an integrated recycling system from Herbold Meckesheim and Coperion. In addition to the mechanical processing of used PET bottles, the recycling system encompasses all process steps leading up to extrusion with a ZSK twin screw extruder, including pelletizing and an SSP (Solid State Polycondensation) reactor. We talked to Devendra Surana, Managing Director at Magpet, & Indroneel Goho, President & CEO at Magpet, to learn more about their business, their long-term vision as well as the main drivers of this project.

  • ProRate PLUS. Surprisingly Powerful.

    In the continuous production of plastic products, equipment for the controlled feeding of bulk materials into extruders and/or mixers is essential. In most cases loss-in-weight screw feeders are used to feed the bulk materials. The flawless operation of loss-in-weight feeders is the key to successful production. But what are the most common challenges when operating screw feeders and how does the ProRate PLUS line meet the requirements of the plastics processing industry?
