INTAREMA® T, TE

High-performance thermoplastic plastics recycling

 

INTAREMA® T or TE. Two different series that are based on the same compact INTAREMA® recycling system featuring a short single-screw extruder. Including, of course, the INTAREMA® top technologies Counter Current, Smart Start and ecoSAVE®. For more efficiency and productivity in plastics recycling.

INTAREMA® T without extruder degassing: ideal for non-printed edge trim, cutting waste, rolls, loose leftover film and regrind material.

INTAREMA® TE with double degassing: for flexible recycling of slightly printed production and industrial waste and technical plastics.

Technical benefits

 
  • Enhanced material intake, greater flexibility and higher throughput rates thanks to Counter Current technology
  • Preconditioning Unit ensures optimum material preparation for the extruder
  • HG D (hot die face pelletising system with Direct Drive technology) – state-of-the-art pelletising technology
  • Liquid-cooled extruder enables efficient and exact temperature control for the extruder zones and thus high-quality processing of the melt 
  • Large-area ultra-fine filtration as standard
  • Innovative, patented additional technologies for the Preconditioning Unit – DD system and Air Flush module (optional) widen the scope of application

Economic benefits

 
  • High-quality end product allows very high recyclate content when material is returned to the production cycle
  • Extremely easy operation and maximum user-friendliness with the Smart Start principle
  • ecoSAVE® reduces energy consumption by up to 12 % as well as production costs and CO2 emissions as a result
  • Very low operating costs through extremely low specific energy and maintenance costs
  • Reliable, high output thanks to Counter Current technology and very robust design
  • Compact, space-saving design

  1. FEEDING:

    Feeding (1) is automatic according to customer requirements

  2. PRECONDITIONING UNIT:

    In the Preconditioning Unit (2) the material is cut, mixed, heated, dried, compacted and buffered.

  3. EXTRUDER SCREW:

    In the extruder screw (3) the material is plasticised, homogenised and, if necessary, degassed in the degassing zone 4 (TE).

  4. DEGASSING ZONE:

    In the extruder screw (3) the material is plasticised, homogenised and, if necessary, degassed in the degassing zone (4) (TE).

  5. SELF-CLEANING FILTER :

    The melt is then cleaned in the fully automatic, self-cleaning filter (5).

  6. TOOLS:

    Following this, the melt is conveyed to the respective tool (6) (e.g. pelletiser) under extremely low pressure.

    Explanatory video

 

Feeding (1) is automatic according to customer requirements. In the Preconditioning Unit (2) the material is cut, mixed, heated, dried, compacted and buffered. Next, the tangentially connected extruder is filled continuously with hot, pre-compacted material. The innovative Counter Current technology enables optimised intake action across an extended temperature range.

INNOVATIVE, PATENTED ADDITIONAL TECHNOLOGIES

  • With patented Double Disc (DD) technology materials with up to 12 % residual moisture can be processed with consistently high output
  • The patented Air Flush module increases drying performance and output while ensuring lower energy consumption and extending plant service life
  • Optimised large EREMA Preconditioning Unit
    • Output up to 30 % higher than on conventional extruders thanks to extremely uniform feeding of the tangentially connected extruder.
    • Direct admixing of masterbatch and additives possible
    • No pre-shredding is necessary for 95 % of all materials

GROUNDBREAKING INNOVATION

Counter Current technology developed by EREMA changes the direction of rotation inside the cutter/compactor: the plastic material thus moves in the opposite direction to that of the extruder screw. A small change with a big impact: the relative speed of the material in the intake zone, i.e. when passing from the cutter/compactor to the extruder, accelerates so that the extruder acts in the same way as a sharp cutting edge which literally "slices up" the plastic.

As a result the extruder handles more material in a shorter time. Thanks to the enhanced material intake plastic can be processed even at lower temperatures at a high throughput - meaning higher productivity, flexibility and operational reliability

 

INTAREMA® T and TE IN ONE:

 
counter current
 
 

Counter Current technology

  • Highest process stability through improved material intake ensures constantly high output over a considerably broader temperature range
  • Higher flexibility and operational reliability with a variety of materials
  • Increased throughputs with the same plant size for more productivity
smart start
 
 

Smart Start technology

  • Remarkably easy to operate thanks to logical, clearly structured and simplified handling and ultramodern, ergonomic touch screen display
  • Fewer buttons, more user-friendliness – thanks to high degree of automation including extensive control packages
  • The right recipe for every application – saved processing parameters can be loaded easily and conveniently from the recipe management system at the push of a button
eco save
 
 

ecoSAVE®  technology

  • Lower specific energy requirements thanks to a complete package featuring design and process engineering measures, such as the new direct-drive extruder screw
  • Lower production costs through optimised control technology and high-quality, energy-efficient components such as high-performance motors
  • Additionally, the practical energy display on your operating panel gives you a constant overview of energy consumption at all times, thus enabling you to take specific measures to optimise consumption
  • Reduced CO2 emissions – an important contribution to environmental protection
