... and boost productivity at every stage of plastics and rubber processing.

The detailed 3D animation takes viewers inside a virtual plastics plant, showing how Eriez technologies integrate seamlessly throughout raw material handling, extrusion, moulding, packaging, and regrind cleaning to maintain product purity and consistent uptime.

“Contamination threats exist at every step of the process, but with the right equipment, processors can take decisive action to protect quality and throughput,” said Craig Lorei, Eriez Global Market Manager - Light Industry. “This animation presents real-world solutions for turning potential risks into areas of strength.”

Across the plant, Eriez RF Cartridge, Rare Earth Grate-in-Housing Magnets, and Hump Magnets remove ferrous contaminants before they reach downstream machinery. During moulding and extrusion, Rare Earth PM Grate-in-Housing Magnets and Choke-Fed Metal Detectors safeguard tooling and prevent costly stoppages, while Tunnel and Gravity-Fed Metal Detectors ensure manufactured goods meet the highest purity standards. Drum and Plate Magnets help maintain cleanliness in recycled material streams.

Eriez electromagnetic vibratory feeders and conveyors further enhance efficiency by delivering consistent material flow, reducing waste, and supporting uninterrupted production.

“As industry standards tighten, plastics and rubber processors need end-to-end solutions they can trust to meet quality, environmental, and economic goals,” Lorei explained. “Our virtual plant animation allows manufacturers to see how state-of-the-art material handling and contamination control equipment operate in conjunction to protect valuable machinery and improve the process.”
