Polyolefine
Innovative plants for the polyolefin industry
Proven technology and experience build process competence
Zeppelin Systems specializes in the design, construction, and technological advancement of polyolefin plants. Each installation is precisely tailored to your products and requirements. To achieve this, we integrate all components for conveying, mixing, dosing, storage, and dedusting into a single, cohesive system that prioritizes your high-quality bulk materials. Together, we’ll extract maximum performance from your processes—regardless of location and even under the most extreme conditions. Our commitment doesn’t end with plant delivery: we remain at your service after commissioning for trial runs, training, or ongoing support. With our 360° service, you’ll receive professional assistance at every phase of your project.
Challenges in the manufacturing of polyolefins
CAPEX in focus
The more accurately costs, volumes, timelines, and effort can be defined, the more efficiently a project can proceed in advance. We account for every contingency well before an investment decision, ensuring your investment delivers value from the outset.
Low OPEX
Our sophisticated solutions for polyolefin plants deliver larger batch capacities with the highest quality and low energy consumption. For example, hydraulic conveying significantly reduces operating costs, saving between 60 % and 80 % of energy compared to pneumatic systems.
High Product Quality Is Achievable
In the manufacture of plastics and in downstream logistics, the product is subjected to mechanical stress. We focus on the quality of the end product and the purity of the bulk material, selecting the optimal process for your product. Our proven screening systems effectively remove dust particles, fibers, and “angel hair.” For cleaning plastic granules—such as removing fiber nests and strands—we use drum screens. Cyclone separators are employed to separate bulk solids from a gas stream, for example in pneumatic conveying systems.
Deep Process Expertise with Attention to Detail
We are highly valued for the seamless integration of our systems and components into the overall process. We develop your entire material supply chain—from raw material to finished product—regardless of whether it is bagged or shipped in bulk.
Process-Oriented Conveying Technology for Superior Product Quality
Conveying distances of up to 1,000 meters are not uncommon in the polyolefin industry today. Our patented Cyclo Feeder, paired with hydraulic conveying, guarantees extremely gentle product feed—even over long distances—with minimal abrasion or loss.
Tailored Degassing and Mixing Technology
Process or raw-material variations need not lead to fluctuating product quality in polyolefin production. We offer process silos for degassing, heating, and cooling, as well as mixers. Our mixing silos compensate for irregularities in good time: from Multi-Pipe and Multi-Channel units for large volumes, to the Multi-Flow version for small batches and technical plastics, and even fluid-bed mixers for bulk solids with particle sizes below 500 µm. Each installation is customized to your product requirements.
