• Damp material.
• Very contaminated material.
Typical applications /
• Pre-washed post-consumer film.
• Pre-washed used agricultural film.
• Flexible packaging with high ink content.
Common materials /
Pre-washed agricultural film
Post-consumption waste
Film with ink
BOPP film
Maximum
productivity
Maximum productivity /
1
Large compactor for optimum conditioning of the material, reducing humidity and increasing its temperature by friction.
2
Automatic regulation of material flow from the compactor to the extruder for maximum performance.
3
Maximum productivity and plastification capacity thanks to an optimised and large screw design (L/D 40).
4
Fewer production stops thanks to the continuous filter with automatic backflushing placed after the extruder.
5
Minimal waste of material even in the most demanding situations thanks to the continuous flow laser filter (optional).
cost
reduction
Cost reduction/
Fewer production stoppages, and lower spare parts costs (intermediate bushings) and losses of material thanks to the filter after the extruder.
Maximum durability of barrel and screw thanks to the use of the best bimetal steel on the market.
Rapid return on investment thanks to the highly competitive prices of our machines in relation to their productivity.
Maximum energy efficiency thanks to the use of the latest engines and the barrel being reheated by infra-red lights (60% reduction in power consumption).
Benefits
Benefits /
High performance compactor. It conditions the material so that the extruder can work at full performance and energy consumption is reduced. This is obtained by cutting, mixing, heating and drying the material. Removing the residual moisture is equal to a first degassing stage.
Infrared barrel reheating to reduce energy consumption by 60% and the time to reach the target temperature by 50%
Double high-power degassing stage. Thanks to the screw optimum design when pre-heating the material in the compactor and to a powerful vacuum degassing, maximum efficiency can be obtained to eliminate gasses and volatiles.
Automatic backflushing filter. Excellent filtering power, increasing the service life of the meshes and reducing operator work load. Its design and features are optimum for working with highly contaminated materials.
Top brand components (Lenze, WEG, Siemens, ABB, Knodler, etc.).
Simple and user-friendly handling thanks to the customisable interface.
Barrel cooling using thermal oil to precisely and efficiently control the temperature.
Maximum filtering power (up to 18% contaminants) thanks to the continuous melt filter (optional).
Assisted start-up process for greater convenience and safety.

Future proof/
According to experts, the forthcoming fourth industrial revolution and the concept of “Industry 4.0” will mark a before and after in aspects such as the monitoring of industrial activity, logistics, process optimisation, productivity monitoring, etc. All of this is possible thanks to digitisation, information exchange and Big Data management that ultimately allow for a higher level of automation.
Velox machines have all the technological advances necessary to integrate into this ever closer environment. Specifically, they include a complete communication interface and a powerful information recording system that enable intercommunication with external computer systems such as ERP (Enterprise resource planning) systems. This, among other things, allows our customers to:
Upload relevant data about production onto the company’s IT system (ERP).
Automatically have a digital page with all the important information about ongoing or completed production.
Control the maintenance activity of the machines for better traceability.
Record all the programming performed on a data base to identify any possible errors.
