Compounding

Cutting-edge solutions for the compounding of plastic polymers 

Compounding is a process by which the plastic raw material is transformed and prepared for the subsequent production phases. More in detail, the physical, electrical, thermal and aesthetic characteristics of polymers are modified and refined. Molten plastic polymers, including nylon PA, polycarbonate, polystyrene, PVC, polyethylene and propylene, are mixed with additives to obtain a homogeneous granular compound.  

Thermoplastic manufacturers need machinery that is compact, flexible and easy to clean and restart in order to maximize the performance and quality of different finished products while meeting market demand in terms of volume.  

Thanks to the experience gained in the realization of more than 200 compounding plants for plastics, the Piovan Group offers innovative and sustainable solutions for the treatment of materials. Piovan equipment maximizes the results of compounding lines through high flexibilityprecision and efficiency in material handling, dosing and blending. The Group provides, for example, high precision gravimetric blenderspneumatic conveying and raw material handling systems, suitable for all plastic materials (virgin, recycled, masterbatch and additives). In particular, the dosing units are characterised by extremely fast material changeover, simplified cleaning and station portability.  

In general, Piovan turn-key plants allow the production of technical compounds based on thermoplastic engineering plasticsthermoplastic elastomers and polyolefins for a wide selection of industrial sectors, including automotive, medical and food.
