HOW SCRAPEAWAY WORKS

Automatic and continuous Scrapeaway melt filtration system can be currently considered the top-quality screen changer among those based on a laser filter solution. Cofit screen changer of the series Scrapeaway is manufactured and serviced according to the highest quality standards. The laser-drilled screen plate is the key-component of the entire system.

LASER-DRIVEN TECHNOLOGY SCREEN CHANGER

The extrudate enters the screen changer, and is conveyed through a laser-micro drilled and hard faced stainless-steel screen plate, while contaminants are caught on the screen-plate surface. When waste builds up, and backpressure reaches the threshold level, a rotating blade sweeps the screen, thus “scraping contaminants away” through a discharge duct.

SCRAPEAWAY ADVANTAGES

• Filtering of high-contaminated materials, including post-consumer
• Processing of contaminantup to 19 mm (0.75 inch) in diameter
• Automation level increase, easily programmable and user friendly controls
• Waste reduction to < 3%
• Reduction of personnel costs involved in manual operation
• Reduction in system downtimes
• Reduction of maintenance interventions
• Reduction ofpower consumption
• Unimpeded flow through large passages
• Tolerance rates of paper/ labels or cardboard up to 10%
• Low reject rate of good material with contaminants.
• No hydraulics
• Easy set up

LASER FILTRATION
Scrapeaway is based on a laser micro-drilled steel plate, up to 300 microns (50 mesh)
