PROVIDING SOLUTIONS, NOT JUST EQUIPMENT Without the PolyMag™ process companies making parts with co-molded materials either incurred the costs to dispose of these parts, losing the valuable resins or they added expensive labor to manually try to separate different plastics. Manual separation often involves band saws, razor knives and peeling that add ergonomic and employee safety risks. AEC and Eriez provide progressive multi-material processors with a simple method to reduce the cost of waste. POLYMAG™ PLASTICS SEPARATOR PRODUCT BENEFITS Today’s designers and manufacturers are turning to two shot injection molding, over-molding, co extruded profiles and sequential 3-D blow molding to produce the most cost effective new designs. This results in reduced assembly costs, better part consistency and higher quality at a lower overall costs. These sophisticated moldings are more challenging to design, tool and mold. One challenge that processors face, in producing multi-material moldings, is segregating and recovering dissimilar resins. AEC and Eriez now offer a solution to this problem. • • • • • • • • • The PolyMag™ Process provides an effective and automated means to recover manufacturing scrap and waste for multi-material processors. To do this the PolyMag™ additive is incorporated into one of the polymers prior to molding, similar to colorant, making this resin susceptible to the very strong magnetic field produced in the Erium™ Rare Earth roll separator. Scrap parts are run through a traditional granulator and the PolyMag™ separator can then separate the mixed polymer regrind. Scrap cost reduction Eliminates salvage labor Eliminates ergonomic risks Improves material traceability Provides consistent materials Reduces disposal costs Provides higher value regrind Separates unusable blends Enhances process control POLYMAG APPLICATIONS • Injection Molding, Over Molding, Insert Molding, Two-Shot Molding • Co-Extruded Profiles • Exchange Blow Molding • Sequential 3D Blow Molding • Assembled Components • Applied Gaskets • Color Separation • Process Works On: All Resins; Thermoplastic and Thermoset; Mechanical and Chemical Bonds P O LY M A G ™ P L A S T I C S S E PA R A T O R AND w w w. a e c i n t e r n e t . c o m PROCESS
