MAS
Since the formation of MAS by Mr. Helmuth Schulz in 2006, the guiding principles of the company and indeed of every employee has been that; innovative technology leads to measurably better results. Clear, unquestionable, and distinctive in process, in field and not least quality.
Over 40 years expertise in machine engineering within the plastics industry, numerous industry specific patents as well as the engineering spirit provide the foundation of this technology.
MAS specialises in machines and equipment for plastics recycling and processing and has a reputation in this sector for innovative solutions and best-of-class process technology competence. MAS’s across-the-board portfolio includes planning, designing, manufacturing and distribution of plastics processing machines and equipment for recycling, refinement and extrusion of plastics/composites.
MAS’s core competences are:
• Dry recycling of used plastics based on the innovative DRD System (Double Rotor Disc)
• Processing of plastics/composites in the world’s first, conical, co-rotating twin screw extruder from MAS
• Efficient melt filtration with the CDF (Continuous Disc Filter)
Product Range
MAS Extruder – Conical Co-rotating Twinscrew
The extraordinary twin screw technology is THE outstanding innovation in the field of plastic extruders. Granulates, new materials, ground material, materials with low bulk density, and fillers can be easily integrated, mixed, homogenized, and compounded.
The patented MAS conical co-rotating extruder with twin screw technology processes materials safely and gently, achieving high throughputs with extremely low energy consumption. And all this in a robust, compact design. The result: stable processes and maximum flexibility.
- The system can be modified due to simple adaptation to different material fractions, thereby guaranteeing commercial flexibility
- Targeted and reduced energy input along the processing unit thanks to air cooling in the discharge area
- CO2 reduction due to revolutionary process technology
- Reliable and user-friendly operation due to logically designed touch panel
CDF (Continuous Disc Filter) Melt Filter
The fully adaptive melt filter with intelligent process structure automatically adjusts to the conditions and pressure ratios of the melt. Even large quantities of contaminants and dirt that are difficult to clean, such as the finest dust on sheets, can be eliminated by the optimized screen surface. Users enjoy complete control over the entire filtration process at all levels thanks to innovative melt filtration—top output with low maintenance.
- Automated adjustment of the melt filtration parameters and minimised melt loss through integrated tracking control
- Quick and effective maintenance (with scraper exchange) without line downtime
- High performance removal of paper, wood and plastic particles as well as dust, stones and fine sheet residues
- High throughput of up to 4000 kg/h possible depending on viscosity, degree of contamination and filtration fineness
- Longer service lifetime
Cascade Extruder
The melt-fed cascade extruder significantly improves granulate quality and throughput along the entire extrusion line. Thanks to the largest possible melt surface, the TA extruder for venting achieves the best degassing results and increases throughput by up to 50%, with excellent efficiency even with difficult-to-process melts. The MAS single-screw extruder for venting produces granulate of the highest quality and up to 15% greater density.
- Optimal material quality through degassing of air, moisture and contaminants
- Increased throughput due to significantly enhanced efficiency along the entire extrusion line
- Targeted pressure build up for further granulation and processing of the plastic fractions
- Highly versatile – perfectly suited for standard and special plastics
DRD (Double Rotor Disc) System
The DRD dry cleaner offers maximum cost efficiency for material streams without organic contaminants—before, after, instead of, or parallel to the wet washing plant. Reliable drying and cleaning in a single step efficiently removes sand, dust, soil, and water, while heavy material is completely separated. This reduces disposal costs and shortens official approval processes, while lowering operating costs. Simple, fully automatic operation and control provide additional convenience. Our DRD stands out in several ways thanks to our “waterless washing” principle.
Benefits of the DRD Dry Cleaning System:
- Low investment cost
- No water consumption – effective dry and cleaning without water or water treatment, and thus lower operating costs
- Simple operation – fully automatic control and simple implementation into existing processes; a defined moisture level can be set via a batch process
- Longer service life – cleaned input material reduces wear and maintenance requirements for downstream equipment
- Lower operating costs compared to conventional wet cleaning systems
MAS 110
The MAS 110 achieves what conventional twin‑screw extruders promise—and more—but in a compact 6‑meter form with powerful four‑motor architecture. It integrates environmental sensitivity, process efficiency, scalability, and cutting‑edge AI‑based development—providing plastic recyclers and compounders with a future‑ready, sustainable solution.
- Compact yet high‑capacity
- A sleek 6 m long machine that packs the full power of a large twin‑screw extruder into a compact form factor
- New 4‑motor drive – MAS’s latest generation features four powerful motors—“Power Pur” in action—delivering robust, reliable torque for demanding applications (per your notes)
- AI‑augmented engineering – Developed through a fast-paced, AI-driven simulation collaboration with a leading extrusion simulation firm—resulting in a short time to market
- Foundation for next‑gen systems – MAS positions the 110 as a platform for future innovation – the start of a new era in high-performance, sustainable extrusion technology
