Complete lines and extruders for recycling

Post consumer and post industrial plastic is collected, selected, washed and ground or shredded to obtain recovered plastic material in a reduced format.
The material is then fed into the extruder through the hopper and processed using single screw or twin screw technology, depending on the type of polymer and the required result.
During the process, the material is plasticised, degassed and filtered through a screen changer, removing impurities and contaminants to obtain a more stable, cleaner and reusable regranulate.

Plastic extruders transform plastic material through heat, pressure and mechanical movement.
The polymer is introduced into the barrel, where the screw conveys, heats, melts and homogenises it. The molten material is then pushed through a die head or mould, taking the shape required by the production process, such as pipes, profiles, films, sheets or pellets.
Extrusion quality depends on the control of temperature, pressure, screw speed, die head geometry and the characteristics of the processed material.

The cost of a Bausano recycling extruder depends on several technical and production factors, always assessed according to the customer’s specific needs.
The main factors affecting the price are the starting material, such as powders, pellets, regenerated scrap or composite materials, the type of polymer to be processed, for example PVC, HDPE, LDPE, PP or filled materials, and the required hourly output.
The choice of extruder model and size is also decisive. The price varies between MD twin screw technology and E-GO R single screw technology, depending on screw diameter, technical configuration and expected performance.
The type of production, final application, dosing system, level of automation and downstream equipment, such as cooling benches, cutting systems and collection units, also have an impact.
Compact E-GO R single screw solutions, ideal for polyolefins and films, generally require a lower initial investment than MD twin screw lines, designed for processing PVC and more complex materials.
In general, the cost can start from around 100,000 euros for more compact and standard configurations, up to 800,000 euros for complete, customised and high-output lines.
Each project is developed to measure. The Bausano team is available to analyse actual production needs and propose the most suitable technical and economic solution.

The extrusion process makes it possible to produce many plastic products for different industrial sectors.
The main applications include pipes, door and window profiles, technical profiles, pellets, compounds, films, sheets, plates and medical devices, such as medical tubing and components for healthcare applications.
The versatility of the process allows each line to be adapted to the material characteristics, product geometry and the customer’s production goals.

Bausano offers two main series of plastic recycling extruders.
The E-GO R series includes single screw extruders designed for recycling polyolefins, films, compacted scrap and polymer blends.
The MD series includes counter rotating twin screw extruders developed for PVC, filled materials and complex compounds.
Both solutions are available in different sizes and configurations, customisable according to the material to be processed, contamination level, required output and expected regranulate quality.

Bausano extruders are designed to offer high flexibility in the processing of recycled plastic materials.
They can process HDPE, LDPE, PP, rigid and plasticised PVC, composite materials, filled polymers and post-consumer or post-industrial materials.
This broad compatibility makes it possible to enhance the value of different types of plastic scrap, transforming them into high quality regranulates for multiple industrial applications.CONTENT ENG

The recycling process includes several preliminary stages: collection, selection, washing and grinding of plastic waste.
Bausano technology comes into play during the extrusion phase, when the prepared material is fed into the extruder through dedicated systems, such as hoppers, screws or volumetric feeders.
Inside the extruder, the material is plasticised, degassed and filtered through a screen changer to remove impurities and contaminants.
The resulting melt is then cut and cooled, generating high quality recycled pellets ready for new industrial applications.

The precision of Bausano degassing systems, screw configuration and filtration efficiency ensures process stability, production continuity and consistent quality of the finished product.

Each Bausano recycling line includes components designed to ensure durability, efficiency and production continuity.
The main elements are high resistance screw and barrel, hopper, single or double degassing system, automatic or manual screen changer, extrusion die head, cutting and cooling systems, advanced digital control and induction heating.
All components are designed internally by Bausano to ensure maximum reliability, easy maintenance and consistency between line performance and the characteristics of the material to be processed.

Bausano lines make it possible to obtain recycled materials for multiple industrial applications.
The regranulates produced can be used to manufacture pipes, technical profiles, compounds, sheets, films, plates, cables, medical tubing and components for construction, automotive, packaging and urban furniture.
The high homogeneity of the regranulate also enables use in sectors with demanding technical requirements and high added value applications.

E-GO R single screw extruders are suitable for polyolefin materials, films, compacted scrap and low contamination streams. They offer simple management, energy efficiency and compact configurations for flexible production.
MD twin screw extruders are designed to process PVC, filled compounds and materials with a high level of impurities. They ensure superior mixing, optimal degassing and maximum quality even when processing more complex waste.
Both technologies, thanks to Bausano know-how, ensure reliability, production continuity and long operating life.

The price of a Bausano recycling line depends on several factors.
The main ones include the material to be recycled, its type and contamination level, the required hourly output, the extruder model, screw diameter and the configuration of feeding, degassing and filtration systems.
The type of cutting and cooling, level of automation, required accessories and downstream equipment also affect the final cost.
Each project is developed to measure by the Bausano team, with the aim of guaranteeing the most efficient solution according to the customer’s technical, production and economic needs.

Regranulation is the process that transforms plastic waste into new generation granules or pellets, ready to be reused in subsequent industrial processes.
Through extrusion, degassing, filtration and cutting, the recovered plastic material is purified, homogenised and converted into a stable and reusable format.
Bausano technology ensures pure, consistent regranulates suitable even for technical and regulated applications.

Choosing a Bausano extruder for recycling means relying on technology designed and manufactured entirely in Italy, developed to transform plastic scrap into new industrial resources.
Bausano lines integrate advanced digital systems, low consumption induction heating, custom components, simplified maintenance and precise process control.
Bausano’s experience in extrusion and its customer-oriented approach make it possible to address different recycling challenges, ensuring efficiency, sustainability, regranulate quality and concrete production advantages.
