SafeFlake Reliable decontamination of the flakes. The central advantage of VACUNITE® and VACUREMA® systems is the unique SafeFlake technology in the vacuum reactor, which unites several central functions in one - in particular flake decontamination, drying and IV treatment. By pre-treating the PET flakes in a vacuum at the correct temperature - and, in the case of VACUNITE®, with the additional application of nitrogen - moisture and migratory substances are removed effectively as part of the process before extrusion. This prevents any hydrolytic and oxidative decomposition of the melt in the extruder....

Save costs thanks to energy efficiency. Thanks to SafeFlake's vacuum technology, the system achieves the required IV values and maintains them at a stable level - even though the input material has mixtures of different IV values and wall thickness as well as varying humidity. The intrinsic viscosity (IV) is so stable here that the values even lie within the tolerance limits for virgin PET material. For constant quality and high product safety. Supported with valuable feedback from EREMA customers, our engineers and product developers have come up with some ingenious solutions to make the processes...

Patented vacuum assisted nitrogen solid state polycondensation (V-LeaN SSP) The food-grade, spherical and crystalline pellets obtained in this way are fed to the nitrogen SSP in a hot state. This patented system was developed exclusively for EREMA by Polymetrix and has the following special features: The key components of the system include a vacuum reactor with integrated nitrogen flushing which is connected directly to a single-screw extruder. Thanks to the ingenious function of the mixers in the vacuum reactor they feature three ultraefficient function zones which interact perfectly with each...

VACUREMA ADVANCED & PRIME ® Short processing time = quick and reliable results. Thanks to the multiple potentials of SafeFlake. One of the core strengths of the VACUREMA® system is that the entire process - from the flake to the finished, food contact rPET pellet - is particularly fast, efficient and safe. This is made possible by the unique SafeFlake technology in the vacuum reactor, because it combines several key functions in one - in particular flake decontamination, drying and IV treatment. With VACUREMA® Advanced and VACUREMA® Prime, the full potential is unleashed in two reactors. The...
