Automotive Recycling
Discover how the ACS Airwash Technology can maximize your automotive recycling and automotive material processing capabilities and end of life materials.
DISCOVER HOW OUR TECHNOLOGY CAN OPTIMIZE YOUR AUTOMOTIVE RECYCLING AND AUTOMOTIVE MATERIAL PROCESSING CAPABILITIES
Optimize Your Automotive Recycling with ACS – Air Conveyance Systems has worked with the automotive sector for 2 decades and that relationship assisted in our start up. One of our first applications was to recycle scrapped instrument panels/dash boards made from ABS, polyurethane foam and PVC plastic. The finished dashboards were deemed useless and were subsequently land filled. After experimentation and several trials we were able to separate the 3 or more components to useable products.
The cleaned urethane was used for insulation applications, cleaned PVC went back to other automotive applications, mainly sound attenuation products and the ABS substrate could be re-introduced to virgin ABS.
We also have large systems, 5000 pounds per hour, seven days a week for several Toyota suppliers. Our air wash system was added to one of our competitors systems to further clean automotive floor mats and automotive trunk liners.
The rubber compound backing was successfully separated from the durable nylon fibres. Once separated to the desired cleanliness both portions were successfully recycled and diverting millions of pounds of commingled plastics from landfill.
BESIDES THE PRESS SEPARATION
Automotive producers are using more and more specialty plastics due to their weight to strength ratio and there recycling ability, if forethought is used. There is a shift in this thought process changing to beside the press recycling.
The press, referring to the individual injection moulding machine. If the scrap material during the injection process like spurs, sprues, runners and scrap products are conveyed and ground at the press, and then air washed to remove the dust and contaminates, they can be re-introduced to the blend.
We can assist in this whole process resulting in less material handling, 100 percent recycling and zero landfill if done correctly.
How Our Bulk Material Handling Technology Can Maximize Your Automotive Facility’s Processing Capabilities
There are many applications in the automotive industry. Plastics and engineered polymers are used extensively in automobiles because of their light weight, strength and ease of fabrication. Most are injected or blow moulded to form various interior, under the hood and exterior parts.
During this process scrap is usually generated and sometimes it is difficult to re-use back into the process. The scrap parts have to be ground up, known as regrind to go back into the melting process. Grinding usually generates fines and dust which can have adverse affects when re-introduced to the virgin formulation.
If an Air wash is used to evacuate the grinder it can clean the regrind from all its dust and contaminates. We have applications that can use 50% of recycled material. Another advantage is grinding process is dust free, which assists with better house keeping, material bridging and filter replacement.
