100 % HOMOGENEOUS IN-HOUSE RECYCLING
As an internationally leading manufacturer of high-quality IBC totes, tanksand containers, the Vecoplan customer must be able to rely 100 % on theclean and homogeneous reprocessing of different coloured pre-consumermaterial coming directly from the production line. The material has to be completely clean for it to be profitably returned to the production process.
The company therefore relied on its long-standing partner from the initial planning phase to the turnkey handover.
THE PROJECT REQUIRED:
• Implementation of a compact in-house recycling plant in a tight space
• Electrical installation and turnkey handover
• Particularly easy to maintain and able to be thoroughly cleaned
• High safety standards assured
• Integration of a compact lifting and tilting device
• Fully clean output
• Coordinated material flow between shredding and granulation
• Recycling of up to 2,000 kg per hour
CASE COMPONENTS
-
MATERIAL INPUT
• Input of material (hard plastic HDPE) into the large hopper via the automatic lifting and tilting device
• The lamellar curtain of the in-feed opening prevents material from escaping -
MATERIAL SHREDDING
• V-ECO 1300 shredder with in-feed opening 1,255 mm in width
• 55-kW U-rotor
• 60 cutting crowns for 40x40mm grain size • Simple, perfect cleaning thanks to floor
flap and pivotable sieve screen
• High throughput of up to 2,000 kg per hour • Shredding of an IBC in 30 seconds -
MATERIAL OUTPUT
• Completely closed kink belt (45 degree gradient angle) with waved-edge belt conveyor
• Particularly cleaning-friendly openings with electrically-powered shutter closure
• Discharge into the in-feed shaft of the grinding mill for further granulation in the second shredding process

CUSTOMER BENEFIT
HIGHLY EFFICIENT REUSE OF PRODUCTION REJECTS
With the V-ECO-1300 system, the customer saves time, space and raw materials And increases profitability in terms of the cost and quantities of raw materials used. Quite simple with the highly efficient in-house recycling of the residual production material and rejects.
• Time saving: no more transport costs to external recycling facilities
• Space saving: extreme volume reduction of rejects that would otherwise need storage
• Raw material savings and increased efficiency: renewed supply of clean, 100% homogeneous residual material/rejects back into the production process
