Erema is expanding the portfolio of its ReadyMac plastics recycling system by introducing the ReadyMac 500 “Heavy Duty” (HD) version, suitable for processing post-consumer materials. The new ReadyMac 500 HD with Erema Laserfilter is suitable for heavily contaminated input streams. It removes unwanted impurities such as paper, wood, aluminium, or foreign polymers from the plastic melt, while a scraper system continuously cleans the screen, explains the company. “The updated ReadyMac has hit the mark in terms of market requirements and has exceeded our expectations, especially given the current economic environment,” says Michael Köhnhofer, head of the ReadyMac Business Unit at Erema.
