Extrusion International USA 6-2019

75 Extrusion International 6/2019 adherence during metallising and ex- cellent barriers in combination with the equally thin but effective alumin- ium oxide coating. Advanced Solutions for existing BO Lines in Times of Circular Economy and Digitalization At Interplastica 2020 Brückner Servtec presents new solutions for the hot topics circular economy and digitalisation, as well as improved services to enhance the availability of existing film stretching lines. Production of BOPE film with exist- ing BOPP lines: New BOPE-applica- tions are expected to emerge over the next years due to higher demand for recyclable film structures based on mono-materials. BOPE films are applied as “functional layer”, i.e. sealing layer or as base films serv- ing printability or metallization. Brückner Servtec introduces new upgrade packages for existing BOPP stretching lines, making them able to produce also BOPE film. The highly flexible solution increases the prof- itability and allows swift reaction to upcoming market changes. Inline coating technology to en- hance BOPP film: Based on vast ex- perience and successfully realized projects, Brückner Servtec presents new solutions for the utilization of Inline Coating technology in any ex- isting BOPP film production line. The flexible technology adds value to film production by optimizing the surface properties of BOPP films to achieve e.g. higher barrier properties due enhanced metal bonding. Further, it provides surfaces for advanced AlOix coatings by improving its bonding and unique distribution. Due to the extreme thinness of the inline coat- ing, the films are within the tough laws on recyclability. Digitalisation in film production with Brückner ONE: The brand new Brückner ONE digital service plat- form provides a one-stop modular and clips and the entire production line. Twin Screw Extrusion for wide and flexible product and output range: The twinscrew extruder is the pre- ferred extruder design in all modern Brückner biax lines. In the past years, Brückner Servtec has conducted more than a dozen very successful twinscrew upgrades for various cus- tomers at their own but also other OEM lines around the world. It is not only increasing the film quality but moreover reduces the energy con- sumption significantly, another mile- stone in the circular economy endea- vour to “reduce”. At the joint Brückner Group booth, besides Brückner Maschinenbau and Brückner Servtec, visitors will also meet Kiefel, showing the latest developments for the packaging, medical and appliance industry, and PackSys Global, presenting advanced packaging equipment. solution and supports all matters of the line and its operation such as service requests, spare parts inqui- ries, communication and line docu- mentation anywhere, anytime and using any tool. It brings field-proven service products to a new, digital level, and enhances them with ad- ditional features. Brückner ONE helps to maximize the availability of film stretching lines and to minimize maintenance and downtime costs. Predictive maintenance or e-learning are next modules to come. High quality clip and chain refur- bishment service: Brückner Servtec widens its services in this segment by introducing a new clip and chain laboratory at their headquarters in Germany. The state-of-the-art set-up allows a professional inspec- tion of the sample parts and thus enables a better and more efficient planning of maintenance tasks at the film stretching line. The inspec- tion is a free of charge service to customers. Brückner’s clip and chain refurbishment centres are located globally and equipped with the lat- est equipment and tools, providing the best way to disassemble, clean, fix, refurbish and correct small and major mechanical issues. It ensures a maximum availability of the chain Brückner Maschinenbau GmbH & Co. KG Brückner Servtec GmbH www.brueckner.com interplastica 2020: 2. 2C16
