Innovative Solutions for Sustainable Plastics Production
Zeppelin Systems creates optimum conditions for resource-saving production processes in industry
Friedrichshafen, Germany, Plastics are indispensable for the entire economy- and sometimes pose major challenges for the plastics industry, especially with regard to environmental protection. Zeppelin Systems offers solutions that reconcile efficiency and sustainability.
As a plant manufacturer with decades of experience, Zeppelin Systems is an important partner for the plastics industry. The plants, mixers, components and silos for a wide range of applications form a broad product portfolio that, together with state-of-the-art automation technology, offers reliable, innovative solutions and enables smooth production. True to the motto "Engineering Sustainability", the focus at the K trade show is also on sustainability.
High quality from components to systems
Whether plastics, chemicals, food or rubber and tires – Zeppelin plants and components offer an individual solution for every product. This is because the plants are designed precisely for the customer's processes. As early as the engineering stage, the company ensures that the focus is not only on efficiency and productivity, but also on sustainability aspects. Added to this is in-depth raw material and handling know-how, from powders to granules to liquid raw materials. For production that strictly follows the principles of “zero waste” and zero emissions”.
Particularly in the plastics industry, customers appreciate the high quality and service life of Zeppelin plants, which distinguishes them from comparable plants. They know that the plants will run trouble-free for many years and that they can rely on smooth operation. The company also offers process engineering advice for its components. The minimal energy consumption as well as the high degree of automation not only reduce costs, but also the environmental impact – and are
the result of a sophisticated design: Harmful vapors cannot escape to the outside and thus naturally also protect the health of the employees. These are all important points in terms of sustainability.
Focus on plastics recycling
The topic of plastics recycling is also an important pillar in Zeppelin Systems’ portfolio. The company has been active in this market for years and covers part of the entire process chain with its own solutions: from storage and conveying to agglomeration of fluffy materials, such as PET flakes, to compounding and deodorization. In order to significantly increase the contribution to the circular economy, a separate division was created within the company. Its goal is to increasingly cover a larger part of the process chain – also in partnerships with other companies. Zeppelin Systems thus sees itself as an integrator and partner for the professional industrialization of plastics recycling processes.
At this year’s K show, Zeppelin Systems will be presenting its new deodorizing system for the first time. This is a highlight when it comes to increasing the proportion of recycled plastics in new production. This is because the strong odor development of recycled material in some plastics previously precluded its use in higher-value products. The new continuous deodorization systems from Zeppelin Systems remove volatile organic compounds from the recycled material via air flushing. The special design for energy recuperation saves considerable energy and is a highlight against the background of rising gas and electricity prices.
Mixing technology – fast and efficient
Zeppelin Systems also sets standards in the field of mixing technology. This is where expertise from over 100 years of experience is combined with the two brands Henschel and MTI. The portfolio includes mixers for every application – from universal and container mixers to horizontal mixers and heating/cooling mixer combinations. All mixers deliver very high mixing quality, offer a wide range of options and are designed for different processes – for products of today and tomorrow.
