Reifenhauser Group

Empowering Youth in Plastics! On the International Day of Skills for Youth, we at Reifenhäuser celebrate our commitment to young innovators shaping the future of the plastics industry. Our purpose, "We shape the future," is not just a statement; it's a commitment to fostering the next generation of innovators. Our dedication to nurturing young talent and groundbreaking ideas is an integral part of our purpose. We believe that by investing in the education and skills of young people, we are paving the way for a more innovative, sustainable, and efficient future in plastic extrusion technologies. Since 2020, the Reifenhäuser Sponsorship Award, has been recognizing academic work in the field of plastics engineering. This initiative inspires students to engage with the pressing challenges of the plastics world at a high level. As a family-owned company, we understand that the journey of learning and innovation never ends. We are proud to accompany young professionals on their path, offering support, guidance, and opportunities to excel in the dynamic world of plastics.

👷✅ 𝗜𝗻𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘀𝗲 𝗼𝗰𝗰𝘂𝗽𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝘀𝗮𝗳𝗲𝘁𝘆 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗣𝗔𝗠 𝗮𝘂𝘁𝗼𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻! Control flat die and coextrusion adapters completely ✋contact-free✋ and safely. On a manually controlled flat film extrusion line, the machine operator has to adjust a large number of adjusting screws directly on the so-called "hot part" of the line. This naturally poses a risk to occupational safety, as there is a possibility of touching the hot metal elements or the hot plastic melt itself. With the Reifenhäuser automation option 𝗣𝗔𝗠 (𝗽𝗿𝗲𝗰𝗶𝘀𝗲, 𝗮𝘂𝘁𝗼𝗻𝗼𝗺𝗼𝘂𝘀, 𝗺𝗲𝗰𝗵𝗮𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗻𝗶𝗰), operation is completely contact-free using electromechanical actuators, making it much safer. In addition to the contactless and therefore safer system operation, with PAM processors also become less dependent on experienced system operators. Adjustment is fully automated at the touch of a button and is therefore always equally precise.

On this International Day of Food Safety, we are proud to contribute to a safer, more sustainable future with our innovative solutions in plastic extrusion technology. Traditionally, creating food-safe films from recycled materials has been a complex and energy-intensive process, requiring expensive, bulky equipment and multiple stages. Not anymore! Our PET thermoforming sheet lines are revolutionizing the industry by enabling processors to produce films from 100% recycled content in a single, streamlined process step. This is why our MIREX PET sheet lines have received the coveted approval from the European Food and Safety Authority (EFSA) for producing films that come into direct contact with food items. These films are not only certified by the FDA and EFSA for direct food contact but also match the ease and cost-effectiveness of films made from virgin materials. This breakthrough means you can now offer your customers eco-friendly food packaging options without compromising on quality or profitability. Do you want to learn more?

📢 𝗙𝗿𝗲𝗲 𝗢𝗻𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗲 𝗔𝗹𝗹𝗼𝘆 𝗔𝗱𝘃𝗶𝘀𝗼𝗿 Are you looking for the right wear protection alloy for the screws and barrels of your plasticizing unit? Not so easy, is it? If the protection is too weak, the components often must be replaced. On the other hand, you don't want to invest in disproportionately expensive alloys that are over-engineered for your application. ✔️ Our free Online Alloy Advisor will help you make exactly the right choice! 𝗔𝗻 𝗲𝘅𝗮𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗲: You produce automotive injection-molded parts with a high glass fiber content and flame-retardant additives to meet special requirements for stability and temperature resistance. A standard alloy would not withstand the increased wear caused by the filler content for long. With our alloy advisor, you can select the relevant parameters for your individual process with just a few clicks and immediately receive a well-founded recommendation. Of course, you can then contact our Reifenhäuser experts for personal and detailed advice. 👉 𝗖𝗹𝗶𝗰𝗸 𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗢𝗻𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗲 𝗔𝗹𝗹𝗼𝘆 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝘀𝘂𝗹𝘁𝗮𝗻𝘁: https://lnkd.in/ecQxiK9H #WearProtection #PlasticsExtrusion #InjectionMolding

We recently attended the Central Asia Plastics Trade fair in Kazakhstan, a market brimming with potential. Our colleague, Sofija Bertasa, sheds light on the region's prospects: "The launch of local raw material production has led to a remarkable surge in polymer processing. With the recent introduction of local polypropylene production in Kazakhstan, we expect the plastic processing sector to experience substantial growth in the next 3-5 years." Although the current focus primarily revolves around industrial packaging, particularly Stretch Hood solutions, there is a growing interest in food packaging. Specifically, PET trays for meat made from bottle flakes have garnered significant attention. For businesses venturing into these emerging markets, prioritizing productivity, reliability, and knowledge transfer for production setup is paramount. #CentralAsiaPlasticsTradeFair #PolymerProcessing #IndustrialPackaging #StretchHoodSolutions #FoodPackaging #PETTrays #BottleFlakes #EmergingMarkets

When it comes to wear protection for your barrel only hardness counts, right? Wrong! Our iron-based alloys deliver better wear protection with the same hardness due to their high density of ceramic phases. This protects your plasticizing unit perfectly against abrasive particles at the best cost-benefit ratio on the market.
