Plastics Shredder Line at NPE Booth # 67016


ARCHDALE, NC / March 3, 2009 -- VECOPLAN, a leader in size reduction technology for plastics waste recycling, will show a wide range of plastics shredders at NPE. Machines selected for display provide an overview of Vecoplan's proficiency in application specific plastics waste solutions. These will include a VH continuous feed horizontal model; three standard hopper fed vertical U models, two XL models for bulky feedstock, an FF model for Film & Fiber, and a KT model featuring Vecoplan's HiTorc(TM) energy saving drive.

The VH18/60 CP will represent machines in Vecoplan's horizontal series at NPE. Continuously fed by vibratory conveyors, VH models are specifically designed for maximum efficiency in the grinding of PVC siding, window frame extrusions, mouldings, plastic or composite lumber, and other lineal scrap. A 16' vibratory conveyor will be installed with the shredder at NPE and comes standard with all VH models.

Three of Vecoplan's most popular models, the RG32/20 U, the RG42/30 U and the RG52/60 U, will be shown as examples of Vecoplan's line of multi-purpose, vertical machines. Fed via hoppers, these shredders handle virtually all types of plastic scrap in a true "dump & run" fashion. U models are designed for processing plastic waste for reclamation and recycling, large extruder purgings, large reject parts, and trim scraps.

Vecoplan's RG42/60 XL and RG70/200 XL will be on the booth to allow attendees, hands on, experience with innovations designed for the improved processing of bulky feedstock. Shredders in the XL line feature larger rotor diameters and taller feed rams. This dramatically improves the processing of large plastic waste. With XL models throughput is increased on materials such as pallets, baled scrap, and other large-dimension waste products, as well as large volume dump and run applications.

The RG62/200 KT displayed at the show will give customers the opportunity to see Vecoplan's innovative energy saving HiTorc(TM) drive. HiTorc(TM) reduces power consumption by up to 85%, increases throughput by up to 100%, delivers maximum torque across a wide speed range, provides full speed control, has a controlled stop function with the quickest possible reversing action, and eliminates gearboxes, fluid couplings, and belts.

An RG52/150 K FF shown at NPE will illustrate the many advantages offered by Vecoplan's patented SureCut(TM) rotor with its specialized cutting geometry. Models in Vecoplan's FF series feature SureCut(TM), are designed specifically for single-stage reduction of plastic films and synthetic fibers, and prevent the rotor wrapping and self-feeding common with this type of material. Benefits of the SureCut(TM) cutting system include precise cut lengths and high bulk densities.
