Process composed of a series of stages: disposal, transfer, grinding, cleaning, distribution, and reentry to the molding process.
Process composed of a series of stages: disposal, transfer, grinding, cleaning, distribution, and reentry to the molding process.
Consists of reintroducing recycled material into the production system to maximize resources and minimize waste.
Material resulting from a molding process, mostly cold runner. This material is ground and recirculated into the molding process.
Counted each time the reground material is reintroduced into the molding process. If it is reground again, it will be considered as second generation.
Set of tools and equipment through which previously molded material will be transformed to be reused in a new process.
Encompasses the time the plastic takes from being designated as part of the regrinding process, through its transport, grinding, and reentry into the molding process.
