PALLMANN - John Wood & Associates

Insulating materials from extruded
Polystyrol-HR-foam (XPS) have
proven themselves in many
applications i.e. for steep roof-,
floor- exterior/ interior wall insulation
and many other areas. The
production of extruded HR-foam
sheets is therefore continuously
expanding worldwide. During
production and further processing,
waste is created in form of rejects
Recycling von Dämmstoffabfällen
Recycling of Insulating Foam Waste
or milling chips.
PALLMANN recycling technology
offers the decisive advantage of
being able to produce free-flowing
agglomerates with high bulk
density that can be immediately
re-entered into the production
cycle.
With high throughput rate and
economic performance, a granu-
lator first of all produces a granule
of defined size that can be further
processed in the Plast-Agglomerator.
The sturdy and durable
design of the granulator is made
for extreme, continuous operation.
Load-controlled material feeding
via conveyor belt and draw-in
rollers guarantees comfortable,
horizontal feeding.
The Plast-Agglomerator produces
agglomerate from the granule, by
means of gentle agglomeration
with frictional heat, without any
major thermal stress.
Due to the low heat generation,
cooling of the agglomerate by
water immersion is not necessary,
therewith avoiding contamination
of the cooling water by flame
retarding agents and eliminating
the high cost of water purification.
Sheet waste and milling chips can
be processed in one step. Startup
under cold condition without
prior cleaning of the agglomerating
chamber is possible at any time.
Due to the space-saving and
compact modular design of the
system, floor costs are reduced.
