BKS: your knives partner for Plastics Industry
Plastics, an indispensable material of our modern life
Plastic is everywhere! Over the years, it has become the raw material of a very large part of the objects that surround us such as Electronics, Cars, Construction, Planes/Aerospace, Medical, …
It trades as granules that are either pure, either filled with additives (compounds) or colored (masterbatches).
An increasingly complex and demanding material
The polymer industry has become totally essential to our modern life, but it is also highly criticized. The sector has to face growing technical challenges such as the integration of recycled plastics in production lines, changes in the compound formulas to achieve very specifics mechanical properties, and so on…
To this end, technology and production methods have evolved significantly in recent years for the pellet producers themselves and for their customers. Equipment is becoming more and more precise and efficient and is forcing the whole sector to increase the quality of the final products.
High-performance industrial knives
In order to meet the expectations of their own customers, plastics producers must ensure a flawless and totally homogeneous production quality over campaigns ranging from a few kilos to several tens of tons!
The polymers granulation is the last step of a very long process, it is a critical step before the trade of the granules. There can be many cutting problems: excess dust (loss of raw material), irregular pellets or pellets with a tail (impossible to sell), among others.
