Plast-Control UK Ltd

Plast-Control UK Ltd

PLAST-CONTROL was formed in 1979 and launched its first product the Gravimetric Extrusion control system later that year. Since then we have grown with continuous development of products and new product launches approx. every two years.

Our innovative and class leading system and sensor hardware technologies are used extensively in the blown film extrusion and continuous sheet and profile extrusion industries worldwide.

Were always striving to deliver market relevant products which reduce operational costs and raw material consumption and have excellent service and low operational costs.

PLAST-CONTROL UK has represented PLAST-CONTROL GmbH in the UK since 1990 and provides technical consultation services, UK based installation, commissioning, service and after sales support as well as holding comprehensive stocks of spares parts and consumables for the complete product range.

  1. Feeding & Dosing

    Feeding & Dosing
    Efficient material feeding and dosing are the basic function for every extrusion line. Steady throughputs and dosing "on the point" (down to the micro-range) are the most important strenghts of our systems

  2. Pro-Batch

    Pro-Batch
    Compared to the continuous dosing,  the  batch blender works according to the „gain-in-weight“- principle. The material gate opens for a pre-determined time and registers the gain in weight in the weighing chamber. When the batch is complete, the material is discharged and mixed in the mixing chamber. The accuracy is of ±  0.3%.

  3. Pro-Clean and Pro-Drain

    Pro-Clean and Pro-Drain
    PRO-CLEAN comes with a complete new design of the continuous working gravimetric hoppers and conveying system with the target to reduce cross contamination (or imperfections in the film surface). Dust and sometimes residue material remain in the dead zone areas and cause the need for a time consuming cleaning process.

  4. Pro-Grav

    Pro-Grav
    All of our automation principles over the last 35 years have been based on gravimetric extrusion control.

    The “loss in weight” principle guarantees precise measurement of throughput and control designed for all types of extrusion processes. Extrusion control has proven to be an essential first step for establishing a stable extrusion process.

    Fully modular construction allows up to 6 dosing units plus main material to be fitted to each extruder (including co-extruders). Precise dosing of costly additives and master batches takes place directly above the extruder throat.

    All dosing units outputs are synchronized with the main hopper output to guarantee an accurate product recipe. The latest generation of dosing unit now incorporates a high torque motor delivering a wide speed range.

  5. Pro-Vac

    Pro-Vac
    Vacuum pumps and dust contamination filtration

    Dust and contamination of the virgin material often creates problems in the extrusion process. Long transport distances and many elbows between the silos and the machines produce dust and angel hair. These contaminates must be removed before entering the extruder by use of filtration devices.

    More and more extrusion companies are changing to a centralized vacuum supply. Advantages like energy efficiency, noise reduction at the work station and a significant higher output at lower costs are only a few reasons. The uptime is increased while the maintenance effort is decreased.

  6. Pro-Vider

    Pro-Vider
    PLAST-CONTROL provides software and hardware to deliver plastic pellets within a plant.

    PLAST-CONTROL engineers can design plant-wide layouts or individual system configurations. A properly designed system eliminates dust and angel hair. Minimizing conveying distances and maximizing throughput rates while reducing energy needs - these have been our key-expectations while developing PRO-VIDER.

    If your requirements are to convey small amounts of a single material over a short distance, or a production hall central vacuum system with several tons per hour demand - we have the technical solution and the appropriate equipment
