AMUT GROUP is ready for the triennial Plast Exhibition in Milan this year, with an impressive booth of more than 800 m sq to officially introduce the new AMUT DOLCI BIELLONI into the European market and to display the latest developments in extrusion, recycling and thermoforming.
AMUT
All visitors will see the new model of thermoforming machine AMP850W-GP in operation. Equipped with a 50-cavity mould, it produces aqua cups in PP with diameter of 73,5 mm, weight of 3,2 g and capacity of 240 ml. The output is around 110.000 cups/h. The concept of the machine complies with the highest rates regarding energy and material savings (low consumption and in-line grinder for scraps). At the end of the line, there is a pick-up stacker to enable piece-counting.
A De-labeller, DLB 60 – 6000 kg/h of PET bottle capacity, will represent the Recycling Division. De-Labeller is a dry pre-cleaning system removing full-body shrink sleeve labels from PET bottles. It is the best solution to value bottles otherwise intended for disposal because it peels the bottles and assures a good integrity without damage or loosing necks. The De-labeller is suitable to be added at the beginning of a washing line.
The counter-rotating twin-screw extruder, model BA92, is a peculiar extruder developed for the special range EasyWood, AMUT lines producing WPC with a direct extrusion system (output from 250 up to 600 kg/h). WPC is polymers (PE, PP, PVC) melt with up to 80 per cent natural fibres and some additives. It has a wood-like appearance and its main applications are in construction, building exteriors and interiors field. Compared to wood, WPC needs a low maintenance, has a good ageing and heat resistance, weather resistant, fungi free and flame retardant.
AMUT's compact series for foil production is composed of a single screw extruder (model EA130), a die (possible configuration up to 7 layers) and a calender. AMUT compact series fits every model of thermoforming machine. The EA130 extruder permits to produce a 1000 mm-width foil, a thickness up to 2 mm and to achieve a capacity of 800-1200 kg/h. The rolls have a diameter of 600 mm. The processed materials are: PP, PS and PET.
The extrusion head TEAT 7 for PVC pipes with diameter up to 710 mm are suitable to deliver pipes in r-PVC, granting the best performances and a perfect thickness uniformity.
Open house
Furthermore, a shuttle bus service will connect the fairground to the AMUT DOLCI BIELLONI premises: an open house will be held to present two cast lines for stretch film, one producing hand and automatic rolls (2000 mm – 7 layers) and the other one jumbos (1500 mm – 5 layers). The 2000- mm stretch film line is absolutely innovative. Six extruders to guarantee a flexible production and a unique design capable of satisfying the main trend in the current stretch film market: a thinner but stronger film to obtain a super power stretch film. In spite of their small dimensions, the extruders are able to deliver high production volumes and grant excellent energy savings.
