The ScrapSaver™ volumetrically feeds ground light density film scrap to the extruder feed screw in a stable, consistent flow. Conair trim systems handle all kinds of film and sheet waste and return it directly to the extruder at rates of 25% or more. The ScrapSaver contains two separate hopper chambers: one for virgin material, and one for scrap fluff. The side-by-side feed system of the two materials re-feeds maximum fluff without bridging.

Direct in-line reprocessing of scrap material eliminates scrap handling costs and the risk of cross-contamination. Scrap inventory and labor expenses are significantly reduced and additional heat histories associated with secondary re-pelletizing or densifying operations are eliminated.

Use this trim pick-up system with an induction blower for conveying thin-gauge edge and/or bleed trims generated in the production of film, foam, sheet or tape extrusion lines. Trims are picked up from the winder and conveyed in a continuous stream to an in-line granulator system or off-line storage bin.

Closed-loop reprocessing of the trim scrap reduces scrap handling costs and labor expenses and eliminates the risk of product contamination. Trim scrap is restored to its original feed stock value.
