Pre-Size Reduction
Screw Crushers / Bale Breakers
The NUGA NSC/NBB series represents a new generation of slow-speed crushers equipped with 2, 4, 6, or 8 independently mounted screw shafts. Each screw operates separately within a robust chassis for optimal performance.
Engineered for the size reduction of brittle materials such as wood, porous blocks, insulation wool, and other bulky waste, these machines excel in handling contaminants like glass, metal, or stones without compromising efficiency.
The NUGA MBB models are particularly effective as bale breakers/openers for PET bottle bales, achieving processing rates of up to 6,000 kg/h depending on material bulk density.
Key Features:
• Heavy-duty construction for highly compacted bales
• Variable speed control for process flexibility
• Expanded metal enclosure for safe, visible operation
• High capacity design with configurable discharge options
Guillotines
The NUGA NGC guillotine is purpose-built for the pre-size reduction of challenging materials such as plastic film bundles, multifilaments, carpets, fiber bales, fishing nets, and rubber bales. Each unit is tailored to accommodate the dimensions of specific rolls or bundles, with a range of feeding and discharge systems to suit customer needs.
Key Features:
• Exceptionally strong machine body for demanding applications
• Advanced pump control technology for reduced noise levels
• Vibration-dampening design for stable operation
• Fully adjustable strokes, speeds, and pressure settings
Shredders
The NUGA NSS single-shaft shredder series delivers powerful and efficient size reduction in a single step. Designed for bulky waste, including plastic film, woven bags, and both soft and rigid thermoplastics, these shredders offer unmatched versatility and process control.
Key Features:
• Low energy consumption with high throughput
• Wide range of sizes and configurations
• Intelligent monitoring and automated control systems
• Extensive knife options for tailored particle sizes
• Robust design for consistent performance in demanding applications
Primary Size Reduction
Granulators
The NUGA NG series granulators combine compact design with rugged construction to handle a wide range of plastics processing tasks. Available in both dry (NG) and wet (NWG) versions, as well as specialized models—NPG for profiles, NTG for pipes, NGRF with roller feeders, NGG with guillotine rotors, and NGX for extreme heavy-duty applications.
Key Features:
• Energy-efficient operation
• Universal applicability across diverse materials
• Easy maintenance with simplified access to cutting areas
• Oversized bearings isolated from the housing for longer life
• Broad selection of machine sizes and rotor designs
Fine Size Reduction
Pulverizers
The NUGA NPZ series is a high-speed, precision pulverizer ideal for processing semi-rigid, impact-resistant, and brittle plastics such as PVC, HDPE, and PP into fine powders for rotational molding and other high-demand applications.
Typical Applications:
• Rotational molding industry
• Masterbatch production
• Coating powder manufacturing
• Compounding and extrusion
Key Features:
• Minimal material residence time to reduce thermal degradation
• Simplified disc gap adjustment for optimal efficiency
• Uniform powder quality
• Cost-effective and high-performing design
Pre-Wash Technology
Pre-Wash Tanks
The NUGA NPT pre-wash tanks efficiently separate heavy contaminants like stones, sand, and glass, safeguarding downstream equipment and optimizing the recycling process.
Key Features:
• Superior impurity separation
• Modular design for scalability
• Constructed entirely of stainless steel (1.4301)
• Flexible discharge options via chain conveyor, auger, or drain valves
Note: For specific requirements, NUGA also offers alternative pre-wash solutions such as augers and rotary separators for extremely contaminated materials like agricultural films.
Primary Intensive Washing
Friction Washers
The NUGA NFW series delivers intensive cleaning of highly contaminated plastics, including foils, PET, and rigid bottles. Designed for continuous material transport and water circulation, they ensure effective washing and pre-drying in a single process.
Key Features:
• Enhanced perforated surfaces for improved separation
• Replaceable rotor paddles and easy sieve access
• Stainless steel construction (1.4301) for durability
• Efficient removal of contaminants and moisture
Separation Technology
Separation Tanks
The NUGA NST series facilitates density-based separation of plastics (e.g., PE from PET), ensuring precise fractionation through optimized tank geometry and variable material flow.
Key Features:
• Automated water level control
• Variable motor speed for precise flow management
• Stainless steel tank construction with galvanized steel supports
Dry Separation (Air Sifters)
The NUGA NZZ zig-zag air sifters employ cross-flow sieving to separate light and heavy fractions. Ideal for improving final product quality or preparing materials for further processing.
Key Features:
• Modular system design
• Multiple discharge options (gravity, screw, or pneumatic)
• Clear process visibility and easy maintenance
Drying Technology
Mechanical Dryers
The NUGA NMD series uses centrifugal force to effectively remove moisture from both soft (PE films, PP bags) and hard (PET, HDPE bottles) materials.
Key Features:
• High drying efficiency with reinforced rotors
• Stainless steel sieves with segmental design for easy replacement
• Oversized external bearings for enhanced durability
• Compact, low-maintenance construction
Thermal Dryers
The NUGA NTD thermal dryers reduce extreme moisture levels (<5%) for pelletizing and further processing. Featuring a 30-meter drying path and integrated air handling systems, they deliver optimal drying results.
Key Features:
• Central air suction and heated airflow
• Mixing cyclone and rotary valve discharge
• Fully automated control systems
Storing Technology
Silos
The NUGA NBS silos are engineered for intermediate storage of materials with challenging flow characteristics. Horizontal design and integrated screw discharge systems ensure smooth operation.
Key Features:
• Large storage volumes with minimal energy use
• Optimized for low maintenance and reduced operating costs
• Optional single or double auger systems
Equipment
Blowers
The NUGA NTB series blowers, available in standard and stainless steel with optional protective coatings, provide reliable material transport for diverse recycling streams.
Cyclones
High-efficiency NUGA cyclones are built in two-part flange-connected designs for easy installation and orientation flexibility. Available in stainless steel or powder-coated options (C3 corrosion class).
Discharging Stations
Robust big bag and box discharging stations support forklift loading, integrated weighing, and automation for seamless unloading processes.
