Recycling PVC-6

Extrusion lines for PVC recycling PVC (polyvinyl chloride) is a versatile thermoplastic that can be transformed into both short-life and long-life products, ranging from packaging materials for the food, medical and cosmetic sectors, to pipes, window profiles, flooring and roofing systems. The ability to recycle both pre-consumer and postconsumer PVC waste allows the material to enter a new lifecycle, contributing to a more circular and efficient plastic economy. Mechanical recycling through extrusion represents a reliable method for reprocessing PVC, though it requires careful control of thermal...

Feeding system Horizontal volumetric feeder Volumetric dosing is based on delivering a fixed volume of material per unit of time, offering a practical alternative to gravimetric systems, which rely on weight-based measurements. This method is particularly effective for feeding granules, rigid plastics, and regrinds, where precision, repeatability and mechanical simplicity are essential for process stability. Optimised flow control Bausano’s horizontal feeders are engineered with a specially designed screw, whose geometry ensures stable material transport and constant throughput. A vertical agitator,...

Screen changer The melted material coming from the extruder flows to an inner channel crossed by a plate with appropriate filtering capacity (breakers), prepared to insert various sized nets based on the desired filtration level. This plate, which is activated by a cylinder controlled by a hydraulic control unit, slides in the work positions. Safe and efficient screen changer system A Position During filtration, one of the two screen cavities is in the melt flow. Both safety guards are closed. Once a certain level of contamination is captured by the filter in the melt flow, the operator drives...

Recycling PVC-11

TGPO The TGPO frontal air cutter by Bausano features a system of knives mounted on a self-centring rotor, directly rotating on the extruder’s die plate. This configuration allows smooth and controlled cutting, ideal for temperature- and shear-sensitive plastics, while preserving material properties during processing. The system ensures consistently low blade surface temperature, preventing the formation of residues or thermal degradation. Thanks to the precise alignment between the knives and die plate, the result is a clean cut with excellent pellet geometry and very low dust — a key factor...

Recycling PVC-12

The L4/M cutter is equipped with a system of three rotating blades mounted on a self-centring ball joint. This mechanism ensures constant and balanced contact with the granulating head, reducing wear and enabling precise, repeatable cuts. Blade adjustment is simplified, helping to maintain uniform pellet size over time. The unit includes a robust 2.2 kW asynchronous motor, managed directly from the extruder’s control panel via inverter. The cutter is enclosed in a protective cover with forced air circulation and an integrated inspection lamp aimed at the granulation area. Mounted on sliding rails,...

Recycling PVC-13

Bausano has developed an advanced cooling system for plastic compound processing, designed to ensure high thermal efficiency and precise granule conditioning. The system includes a vertical transport pipe connected to the cyclone via a quick coupling, allowing fast and secure assembly. The collecting cyclone, entirely made of stainless steel, integrates a mesh filter to retain fine particles, ensuring clean separation. The vibrating cooling tray is self-cleaning and easily removable, simplifying maintenance operations. Cooling is carried out through holed stainless steel surfaces, with forced...
