Maguire: Dryer
The Maguire® VBD™ vacuum dryer uses gravity to move material through three vertically arranged vessels, with the discharge of material from one vessel to the next controlled by slide-gate valves. From top to bottom, the vessels include a heating hopper that brings resin to a target temperature; a vacuum vessel in which vacuum reduces the boiling point of water, causing moisture within the pellets to volatilize and be forced out of the pellet into the low pressure environment surrounding it; and a pressurized retention / take-away hopper that is continually purged by a membrane air dryer to maintain the target level of dryness until the material is discharged. This system eliminates most moving parts, in particular the three-station indexing carousel mechanism of the Maguire® LPD™ vacuum dryer introduced in 2000. Vacuum drying is six times faster than with desiccant systems, which not only makes possible much shorter cold startups but also reduces the risk of material degradation, since resin is exposed to elevated temperature for 80% less time. This remarkable drying speed is attributable to a far more efficient method for extracting moisture from resin pellets—so much more efficient that vacuum dryers reduce energy consumption by up to 60% in comparison with desiccant dryers.

Nordson: Plasticizing system
The Nordson Xaloy Quantum™ plasticizing system includes a barrier screw designed to increase the rate of plastication for unmelted material while minimising shear forces on polymer that is already in a molten state.
Along with the innovative screw, Nordson supplies a custom-designed poppet-style nonreturn valve, whose free-flowing channels prevent polymer degradation and whose rapid shut-off ensures shot-to-shot consistency. A barrier screw has a middle section designed to separate solids from molten polymer so that the heat and shear forces applied to the solids can be maximised, increasing the plastication rate. Nordson custom designs each screw for the Nordson Xaloy plasticizing system to meet specific customer requirements.

Polystar: Pelletising system
Improved pelletising system Repro-Flex with automatic speed adjustment is Polystar’s main exhibit. The die-face cutting produces uniform, round-shaped pellets which are ideal for reprocessing in extrusion. It is also higher in re-selling values comparing to the square-shaped pellets produced by traditional spaghetti type cutting. An improvement that Polystar has made recently features automatic pelletising speed adjustment, in which the pelletising speed is changed automatically and constantly depending on the amount of material flowing through the die head. When more material passes through the die head the pelletising speed increases, and decreases again when the system detects that less material is going through. This results in even more uniform sized pellets in despite of occasional feeding inconsistency at the front of the lin. Furthermore, manual adjustment of pelletising speed is no longer required.
