Inline screen changer for thermoplastics
In the plastics processing industry, maintaining continuous operation while ensuring the purity of thermoplastic melts is essential. High pressure or thermal variations in the melt can cause defects and inefficiencies, making it critical to have reliable screen changing mechanisms without disrupting the workflow.
Facilitate screen changes during operation
The continuous double-piston screen changer ESK by Econ is designed to allow for seamless screen pack exchanges without halting production. This system processes all thermoplastic materials and optimizes the melt flow path to minimize melt residence time. The low pressure build-up safeguards against thermal variations, ensuring consistent product quality. The ESK screen changer’s design prevents dead spots, enabling rapid changes of materials and colors without contamination. It supports throughputs of up to 10,000 kg/hr, making it a robust solution for high-volume operations with a focus on operational reliability and long durability.
