Your material goes mobile with ProTec conveyors!

For many years, ProTec Polymer Processing GmbH (former MANN+HUMMEL ProTec GmbH) has been known as a reliable and experienced partner to the plas-tics industry. The company’s world renowned brands SOMOS® and OHL stand for efficient material handling and ready to use recycling plants.

Conveyors from ProTec have proven themselves in practice worldwide for decades. Discover know-how and innovation strength that will increase your productive capacity also!

Our FG 200 series is already an essential element for cost-effective production in all kinds of industries, e. g. for:

n Individual parts and finished goods (parts for vehicle and machine construction, home and garden pro- ducts, toys, furniture, sporting goods, medical and hygiene products)n Packaging (bags, bottles, transport containers)

The high-performance ProTec Polymer Processing conveyors have been specially designed for the high-est individual requirements with granular or dusty, free flowing bulk goods.

They ensure the reliable and efficient high-capacity automatic charging of tanks, scales, mixers, dosing sys-tems, drying systems and processing machines. There-fore, the systems are successfully in use in the plastics, rubber, recycling, foodstuff, chemicals and pharmaceuti-cal industries.

A multitude of the properties of the FG 200 series systems - such as the tried-and-tested transparent and highly wear-resistant conveyors, the functional suction conveyor principle, the blower (integrated or separate) and the extremely long service life – allow them to be used as needed by the processor to establish efficient production.

Find out for yourself all that conveyor specialists ProTec Polymer Processing have to offer.

Do not hesitate to call us! Our team will be pleased to support you.

Flexibility - the principle of success

Our conveyors are characterised by their simple and individual handling in injection moulding and extrusion processes. Depending on the area of application, the user can choose between transparent polycarbonate conveyors or stainless steel conveyors. The tried-and-tested polycarbonate conveyors make the conveying process visible at a glance. They are still perfectly suitable for conveying abrasive plastics (e.g. containing glass fibre) and are characterised by a long service life with high throughputs.

The modular design of the conveyors ensures an ext-remely flexible adaptation to the injection moulding and extrusion process.

Thanks to the low weight (approx. 10 kg), the convey-ors can be easily and rapidly cleaned. This advantage is particularly useful in terms of time and operating expenses when material is changed frequently and/or small quantities are produced.

With the easily visible display, an operator can quickly check the conveyor’s status, even from some distance away.

Among further options, the systems can be equipped with automatic cleaning (compressed air) which can be managed with the controller.

Optional extras are:

n Material hopper in two materials available n Hinged lid (can also be retrofitted)n Conveyor pipe linesn High-temperature-resistant design (HT/for conveyed materials with temperatures of up to 150°C)n Integrated or external level indicatorn Special voltagesn Machine hoppern Retaining lidn Volume extension for conveyorsn Hose assemblies n Suction tubesn Dosing valvesn Dosing capn Fault indicatorn Removable control unit

Please ask our colleagues about other optional extras and possible adaptations!

Optimal conveyor solutions are tailored precisely to your usage conditions. Thanks to modular subassemblies, the spare part storage can be kept to a minimum, even when using different system types. This saves time and space and frees up resources for other important tasks. The modularity of the systems makes them extremely easy to service. Short delivery times ensure fast im-plementation of your plans. This allows you to present solutions quickly to your customers. Once the systems are on-site, there is nothing stopping you getting off the blocks quickly. Plug-and-play is the name of the game.

Every basic conveyor system comes with a conveyor with built-in conveyor air filter, an integrated or separate blower, a conveyor hose with suction tube, a suitable control unit and a power cable as standard.

The FG 200 series conveyor stations are available in polycarbonate and stainless steel designs. The convey-or stations are equipped with a filter bag or filter plate to separate the conveyed material from the conveyor air.

The Easy Way to a New Conveying Unit

The order code is generated as follows: Conveying unit/station FG_ 2 _ _ ._ / _ _ _

ProductFG = Conveying unit/-stationZF = Central filterFGG = Conveying stat. for grav. dosing units (without base flap)FG 3 = Reduced conveying unit from ø 315 to ø 200FG 2K = 2-component conveying unit/-station

ProTec Polymer Processing - Always at your side

Globally networked sales and service structureNot only do we strive to offer our customers demanding products in the highest quality, but we also strive to en-sure that these products are efficiently utilized and that the optimal production conditions are created.We advise and assess in advance, however we do not transfer responsibility once we’ve been commissioned. Instead we forward this to our extensively trained ser-vice team that makes an on-site visit to ensure that all equipment and systems are optimally serviced and set up.

We do not only provide this service in Germany, but worldwide as well. A network consisting of our own employees – and complemented by the well-trained staff members from our trusted representative offices – is quickly mobilized to be on-site not only when things “get dicey” but also for regular service visits from time to time.
