Space-saving conveying solution for recycled materials in the plastics industry

Global Recycling Dayonce again highlights the importance of efficient and cost-effective solutions in the processing of recycled materials.

A specific application example:
Conveying 1 m³/h of plastic granules (0.5 kg/L, 0.5–15 mm)—with minimal installation space and a clear focus on cost.

The Challenge:
Standard solutions are often too large, too complex, and include more drives than necessary. This drives up investment and operating costs—a critical factor, especially in the recycling industry.

Our approach at AViTEQ GmbH:
Reduction instead of oversizing.

The solution for this project:
KF6X-1PM-L/2000/150metering conveyorwith an optimized system design:

• Elimination of an entire drive system
• Compact design for high throughput
• IP65 magnetic core for industrial environments
• Sensors for control within the resonance range and as anti-collision protection

Supplemented by the SFA06/08-3-3 frequency controller:

• Software-Based Parameterization
• Continuous Condition Monitoring
• Early Detection of Spring Breakage

Noteworthy:
The initial contact was made through our online product configurator—an example of how digital tools measurably contribute to project initiation in B2B.

 Conclusion:
Efficiency in recycling doesn’t mean more technology—it means the right technology.
Fewer components, lower costs, stable processes.
