Angel Hair Trap

The Angel Hair Trap is designed for use in the plastics industry to capture long, thin strands of plastic material that form during processing.

• Clogging filters and processing lines: Angel hair can easily become tangled and clog filters, screens, and other equipment, leading to production downtime and increased maintenance costs.
• Reducing material flow rates: The presence of angel hair can restrict the flow of plastic material through pipes and machinery, reducing production efficiency.
• Contamination of final products: If angel hair is not removed before the final product is formed, it can appear as visible defects in the finished plastic.
• Prevents production problems: By capturing angel hair before it can cause issues, these traps help ensure the smooth operation of plastic processing equipment and improve overall production efficiency.
• Protects equipment: Angel hair traps can help extend the lifespan of filters, screens, and other equipment by preventing them from becoming clogged and damaged.
• Improves product quality: By removing angel hair from the material stream, these traps help ensure that the final plastic product is free of defects and meets quality standards.
• Easy to install and maintain: Angel hair traps are relatively simple to install and maintain while in-line, making them a cost-effective solution for plastic manufacturers.
