Two Icma lines in South America
Icma San Giorgio (headquartered in San Giorgio su Legnano, near Milan, Italy) has designed and installed two complete compounding systems at the facility of a major global appliance manufacturer. The new lines produce mineral-filled compounds at high volume through high-efficiency corotating extruders with integral material handling, dosing and cutting units.
Two corotating extruders are placed at the core of the plant, each capable of producing in excess of 3,000 kg/h of mineral-filled compounds. The system features energy saving enhancements and noise deadening properties built into the corotating extruders and cutting units.
“This is an excellent example of Icma ability to tackle complete and complex compounding projects that require a high level of engineering and reliable execution” said Giorgio Colombo, managing director of Icma San Giorgio. The lines were built and tested at Icma premises prior to installation and final start up at the customer site in South America. “We have developed specific, in-depth experience in the “white goods” industry over the years. Appliance manufacturers recognize that our high efficiency compounding lines can make a substantial difference in productivity and energy savings”, Colombo added.
