We recently collaborated with a leading plastic manufacturing company to successfully transition their production systems from PS to biodegradable and PLA-based compounds for food-grade applications. This partnership resulted in better product quality, reduced waste, and improved efficiency.
🔧 Challenge
The client sought to convert their existing systems to biopolymer-based solutions while maintaining consistent performance and ensuring compatibility with current production setups. Key challenges included minimizing material stress, improving mixing, and achieving high-quality outputs.

🌟 Solution
By implementing the Maxi Melt screw design optimized for biopolymers, we ensured:
- Reduced shear stress, critical for processing biodegradable materials.
- Compatibility with existing machinery, such as Ø55 screws used in injection systems.
- Superior results in producing high-quality, defect-free items like food-grade stirrers and vending components.

🎯 Results
The installation of the modified screws resulted in a substantial improvement. The system's tolerance to back pressure increased, eliminating the material leakage issue and enabling the client to restore full production capacity.
Maxi Melt screws are engineered to meet the demands of modern manufacturing processes. Let us help you achieve outstanding results with innovative solutions tailored to your needs.
