Opening of post-consumer plastic bags without a hassle.
Post-consumer plastic bags are a major waste stream in countries such as Germany, France, and Italy. Because this material is often collected in plastic bags, it is necessary to tear them open in order to liberate the various plastic types inside without damaging the contents.
To meet this challenge, we developed the M&J B240e eDrive Bag-opener – a pre-shredder designed specifically for plastic bags. With its high torque and intelligent cutting technology, the B240e opens bags efficiently while reducing blockages and minimising unplanned downtime. It is engineered for high throughput, while keeping energy consumption and maintenance costs low thanks to our proven M&J eDrive system.
