BRF

Basic continuous melt filter for plastics recycling

Manufacturer
MAAG

BRF is the entry-level model of MAAG continuous melt filters for modern plastics recycling. Efficient melt flow and an optimized contaminant discharge system ensure high quality when processing common polymers with low to high contamination levels.

Benefits

  • Robust screens with longer service life
  • Also suitable for mineral contaminants
  • Controlled contaminant discharge in a safe process environment
  • Flexible use thanks to various screen finenesses
  • Innovative control unit for easy operation
Applications:
  • Extrusion
  • Compounding
  • Recycling

Description

The robust filter screens of the BRF series contribute significantly to lower operating costs in day-to-day production – especially when processing melts containing mineral components.

Operating principle: the melt entering the filtration system is guided through rheologically optimized channels onto the filter disc and passes through its conical holes. Contaminants retained on the disc are immediately removed by a rotating scraper and conveyed to a controlled discharge system.

Typical applications: packaging films, bottle flakes, food packaging, detergent containers, bags and sacks, pipes, batteries, vehicle bumpers, base plates and agricultural films.

Typical materials

  • LDPE
  • LLDPE
  • HDPE
  • PP
  • PS
  • ABS
