KS series dedusting system Designed with the ability to perform complicated separation tasks, Hosokawa's new deduster removes contaminants from plastic regrind and virgin pellets. The KS series system can handle up to 10,000 pounds per hour, and is designed for a variety of materials, including HDPE, LDPE, PET, HIPS, PVC, acrylic and engineered resins.
What's new? Use of a laminar flow of ionized air, which neutralizes static charges between particles, allowing them to be more efficiently separated.
Benefits More efficient removal of unwanted materials, including dust, from pellets and regrind during the dedusting process, resulting in cleaner regrind, less damage to machines and fewer reject parts. Besides removing dust and streamers, the system is versatile enough to sort other, more complicated materials, including paper, fibers and PVC/TPO reinforced roofing. Other benefits include its compact design and ease of maintenance.
