FILM TRIM RECLAIM SYSTEMS AUTOMATIC, CONSISTENT IN-LINE SCRAP REPROCESSING The ScrapSaver volumetrically feeds ground light density film scrap to the extruder feed screw in a stable, consistent flow. Conair trim systems handle all kinds of film and sheet waste and return it directly to the extruder at rates of 25% or more. Direct in-line reprocessing of scrap material eliminates scrap handling costs and the risk of cross-contamination. Scrap inventory and labor expenses are significantly reduced and additional heat histories associated with secondary re-pelletizing or densifying operations are eliminated. Model SSM-3 with control panel DIRECT CLOSED-LOOP RECLAIM INCREASES PROFITS The ScrapSaver delivers a consistent ratio of ground scrap and virgin pellets. Two hoppers maintain component segregation until discharge approximately 1/2 - 1 inch {12-25 mm} above the screw flights. An agitator auger in the fluff hopper ensures reliable feeding of the scrap, while the virgin pellets are gravity fed. To optimize scrap re-feed rates and protect process stability, pellets enter the flights in an annular ring surrounding the fluff. This creates a consistent flight-to-flight mix ratio and provides a steady, and consistent flow of material. Four different auger sizes are available to match extruder sizes up to eight (8) inch {200 mm}. Scrap re-feed rates are typically up to 25% of overall extruder throughput, but higher rates may be possible depending on the extruder feed section, screw design and the end-product being extruded. Long life motor and gearboxes The vertical scrap auger is driven with a reliable AC inverter motor. The drive system comes equipped with multi-level current overload protection with alarm status to protect against premature drive and gearbox failure. Won’t overfeed or underfeed the process The ScrapSaver follows any change in the extruder throughput rate. The following circuit provides consistent feed, avoids “cramming” the flights and eliminates related extruder surging. A low speed cut-out and an internal level sensor with delay timer controls the scrap granulator roll feed to prevent overfeeding. Agitation prevents bridging Agitator arms on the auger are designed to prevent bridging in the ScrapSaver machine and keep a consistent flow of ground scrap into the extruder. Inexpensive operation Automated system virtually eliminates operator involvement and scrap handling costs. Additive feeder side mount A replaceable sight glass accommodates TrueFeed and other additive feeders for direct input to the ScrapSaver pellet fee
