The manufacturing of products in the industrial sector generates plastic waste. It is essential that this waste and offcuts be recycled<\/a>.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u201cProduction offcuts\u201d means plastic leftovers following the manufacturing of a set of products. Here are the different forms that these falls can take.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_4,1_4,1_4,1_4″ _builder_version=”4.22.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_4″ _builder_version=”4.22.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.22.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n This is a quantity of plastic that is discharged from the injection machine before regular production begins, to ensure that the mold is filled correctly; and at the end of production to empty the molds and the feed channels.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_4″ _builder_version=”4.22.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.22.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n The sprues are pieces of plastic that remained in the mold after the main product was extracted.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_4″ _builder_version=”4.22.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.22.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Rejects are parts that have failed quality tests and are therefore unsaleable.

It helps minimize waste and maximize recycling<\/strong> and reuse possibilities.<\/p>\n Here are some systems to consider for collecting plastic production scraps.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Collection bins can be placed in strategic locations on the production line to allow operators to place production off-cuts directly into the bins. Bins must be clearly identified and easily accessible.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Conveyors can be installed to transport plastic production scraps to central collection bins or storage containers. Conveyors can be automated or manual depending on factory size and production volumes. Depending on the industry, the conveyor system can be supplemented by vacuuming the cuts on lines, for example.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Plastic production scraps can be shredded directly on the production line for easier transport and storage. Shredding systems can be integrated into conveyors or collection bins to reduce the size of plastic production scraps.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Storage containers can be installed to store plastic production scraps before recycling or reuse. Containers must be clearly identified and easily accessible to facilitate collection and transport.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Plastic production scraps must be sorted and cleaned<\/a> before being recycled or reused. Sorting and cleaning systems can be integrated into the production line to facilitate the process of recovering plastic production offcuts.<\/p>\n It is important to note that setting up an effective plastic production offcuts collection system requires careful planning<\/strong> and collaboration between the different departments of the factory: production, maintenance, waste management and quality. It is important to correctly carry out the stage of recovering materials to be recycled<\/a>, in order to simplify their storage and save time for production.<\/p>\n For the factory, the interest is to be able to dispose of these bulky items on a regular basis.<\/p>\nThe different production offcuts<\/span><\/span><\/h2>\n
