Fluff Feed Hopper
THE ADVANTAGE OF SCRAP
RECYCLING WITH AN AEC FLUFF
FEED HOPPER:
• Patented dual-stage feed system includes two
separate augers to improve consistency and
processability of the fluff and pellet mix
• Reduction of process orientation, by minimizing
inconsistent surging normally encountered when
trying to feed materials with varying bulk densities
SCRAP RELAIM SYSTEMS
• Reduced material usage as a result of a steadier
process, resulting in lower scrap generation
AEC has supplied innovative scrap handling and
reclaim systems for over 25 years. The following
equipment and services are available:
• Significant cost savings from reduced material
consumption
• Complete material handling systems
• Gravimetric batch and continuous blenders
• Film reclaim systems, including grinders, fluff re-feed
machines and conveying equipment
SPECIFIC ADVANTAGES OVER
REPELLETIZING:
• Drying systems
• Scrap is restored to its original feedstock value
• No additional heat history is added to the material
• Process cooling equipment
• Less risk of contamination
• Installation, start-up and training services
• Less handling of the material results in reduced
labor cost
TYPICAL RETURN ON INVESTMENT:
• Scrap inventory is reduced or eliminated
A line producing 2,000,000 pounds/year has a yield
of 1,880,000 pounds/year. At $.40 per pound, the
120,000 pounds of trim scrap represents $48,000,
not including disposal costs. Feeding this material
directly back into the process is like putting money in
your pocket!
• Improved finished product quality
• High return on investment
• Elimination of repelletizing cost, often $.15-$.25
per pound
