By recycling plastic, we alleviate the strain on landfill capacities and mitigate the environmental impact of plastic waste. Furthermore, plastic recycling conserves valuable natural resources. When we recycle plastics, we decrease the need for new plastic production, which relies on extracting fossil fuels like petroleum. This saves energy and reduces the environmental consequences of resource extraction and plastic manufacturing, such as pollution and habitat destruction. ![]()
Plastic recycling is a multifaceted process encompassing various steps from collection and sorting to cleaning and reprocessing. Once collected, plastic waste undergoes meticulous sorting to ensure different types of plastics are separated efficiently. This segregation streamlines the recycling process and helps create high-quality recycled materials. After sorting, the plastics are cleaned to remove contaminants and impurities. For instance, the PET (polyethylene terephthalate) plastic commonly used in beverage bottles is extensively recycled. Once collected, PET plastics are cleaned thoroughly to remove labels, caps, and any remaining liquid residue. This cleaning process is crucial for producing high-grade recycled PET (rPET) for new bottles or other applications. After cleaning, the plastic waste is processed to create new products. This usually involves shredding the plastic into small pieces and then melting it. Once melted, the plastic can be molded into various forms, from packaging materials to outdoor furniture. These final products made from recycled plastic often demonstrate remarkable durability and quality.
Meeting the soaring demand for recycled plastic is paramount in the age of sustainability. As more businesses and consumers embrace eco-conscious practices, recycled plastics have gained immense popularity. Companies now recognize the importance of incorporating recycled materials into their products and packaging. For example, major beverage companies use rPET, derived from recycled plastic bottles, to produce new bottles. This closed-loop approach reduces the environmental footprint of their packaging. The demand for recycled plastic has spurred innovation and investment in recycling technologies. Advanced recycling techniques, including chemical and pyrolysis, are emerging to handle previously challenging plastics. These methods break down plastics into chemical components, allowing for greater flexibility in repurposing them into new products. Maximizing the utilization of recycled plastic as feedstock can significantly decrease the demand for new plastic production. This shift conserves resources and energy and promotes a circular economy for plastics. It’s a fundamental step towards a more sustainable future where plastics are valued, reused, and recycled, reducing their environmental impact while meeting the needs of a growing global population. In conclusion, Matila Industrial's recycling equipment is making a difference in the plastics industry by providing sustainable solutions for plastic waste. By offering a complete line of recycling machines and promoting the use of recycled plastics, they are contributing to environmental preservation and resource conservation. As the demand for recycled plastics continues to rise, companies like Matila Industrial play a crucial role in meeting this demand and promoting a circular economy for plastics. With their customizable and flexible recycling machines, they are helping businesses and consumers embrace eco-friendly practices and reduce the environmental impact of plastic waste.

DCM Tech has redesigned its IG 82 series rotary surface grinders to include discrete digital inputs and outputs for connection to almost any third-party robotic arm for loading/unloading parts and clearing away debris.
Other automated features include a part detection system, which automates the initial contact between the abrasive wheel and the part; a continuous-grind setting that cycles the machine automatically through conventional, incremental, and grind-to-height modes; and a programmable automatic dressing capability. Combined with the robotic arm and built-in load monitoring, these features allow the operator to set up the machine and then attend to other tasks.

These operations involve two completely different materials and processing methods. Most structural parts are made of aluminum alloy and require high feed rates and high acceleration/deceleration for high-speed machining, along with a high-power spindle for high removal rates. Vision Wide Tech Co. Ltd. specializes in manufacturing mega-gantry machine tools, ranging from 3-axis machines to 5-axis gantry type machines and turn-mill centers. ![]() Engine cases must be high-strength and high-heat-resistant, so they’re generally made of titanium or nickel-based alloy. To machine engine cases, it’s generally necessary to use a lathe for internal and external turning, then use a milling machine for shaping. These machines require high torque, tool and tool life management, and clamping. Vision Wide’s R&D team responded to the request by building the GSF-TC series gantry-type, 6-axis machining center. Vision Wide’s high-power, high-speed interlocking universal head improves aluminum alloy removal, while an efficient, high-power, high-torque continuous universal head plus coolant through spindle (CTS) and 250rpm rotary table enable milling-turning of difficult-to-cut materials. Kenneth Chen, Vision Wide’s chief technology officer, in charge of product development, works with customers to determine what they need to develop their product and how to improve production efficiency. “Never waste time with workpiece transfer operations,” Chen says. “We can integrate two machining functions into one machine to improve productivity. And, to enhance performance, we make our machines with high-speed or high-powered spindles.” A range of capabilities![]() Vision Wide also has developed machines for optimized for different materials. The GSF machine is designed for cutting aluminum. The ADM series is for cutting carbon fiber and glass fiber. For difficult honeycomb material, they created the UC machine that employs ultrasonic cutting – it’s the fourth machine the company has introduced in the past three years. In addition to improving processing efficiency, Vision Wide offers customers control of regular maintenance with reminders through the machine’s controller. Vision Wide’s professional service team in North America can provide commonly needed spare parts within 24 hours, so customers don’t have to wait for delivery from the factory in Taiwan.

FALCON MACHINE TOOLS CO., LTD.
Add : No. 34 Hsing Kong Road, Shang Kang, Chang Hua, TAIWAN, 509004 Web: https://www.chevaliertw.com/ It is the third year of the partnership between Taiwan injection press maker Fu Chun Shin Machinery Manufacture Co. Ltd. and European distributor Windsor Kunststofftechnologie GmbH, and the two are continuing to push harder on the market.
"The market is very competitive," Hank Wu, FCS' marketing manager, said about Europe. "The European machine makers are the leading companies in this industry. So we try to catch up." Key to that strategy is the company's focus on Industry 4.0 and smart manufacturing. The company, based in Tainan, Taiwan, is the country's largest injection press manufacturer and only one to be listed on the Taiwanese stock exchange. The company had approximately US$110 million in sales in 2018. Benjamin Lee, vice general manager of FCS, said they have new servo-hydraulic injection machines and all-electric machines. "They are not just new," he said. "But they are intelligent." Ming-Yi Teh, product manager for FCS, said there are many benefits of the company's smart system, dubbed iMF 4.0 Intelligent ManuFactory, including automating work and being able to adjust production on the fly. "The robot will automatically reject bad parts," Teh said while showing the system on a press at the company's headquarters in May. "The computer will adjust on the fly to make sure melt flow is correct." He said the system is really about data management and allowing the data to be easier to understand. In early May, the company said it had sold five sets of machines complete with the smart system, and it was confident that more and more customers would start choosing the full package. A K 2019, FCS showcased two different machines as part of its push for more sales in Europe. One was an all-electric machine producing yogurt cups with in-mold labeling. The other machine was the company's latest molding system, the FA Series. The press is the most advanced servo-hydraulic injection molding machine the company makes. It was displayed at Chinaplas earlier this year and was first shown at Taipei Plas. Wu said while the end of 2018 was slow in orders, he was optimistic that orders would pick up because of conversations he was having with customers. "There have been inquiries about large-tonnage machines," he said. "Not just regular machines. The demand is there, but people are postponing their decision. I feel like we're going to [get more orders in the second half of 2019]." FCS has one factory in Taiwan and two in China. The company has approximately 360 employees in Taiwan and approximately 440 employees are in the two facilities in China. The Taiwanese factory produces approximately 1,000 machines annually and serves the global market. FCS' major customers are in automotive, housewares, packaging and electronics.
