VACUUM PUMPS AND COMPRESSORS FROM BECKER FOR ALL PROCESSES IN THE PLASTICS INDUSTRY

The applications and demands involved in the different processes of the plastics industry are as diverse as its products. There’s a strong demand for plastic parts in the aerospace, automotive, and manufacturing industries. Plastic CNC machines can produce large volumes of these lightweight and versatile parts, keeping tight tolerances and accurate dimensions. Because plastic is quick and easy to machine, it’s also ideal for prototyping. Whether in the production of new plastic components or the resource-friendly recycling of PET – vacuum pumps, vacuum plants and compressors from Becker are part of it. We offer a range of low-maintenance pumps, including 100% oil-less, dry vacuum pumps, deep vacuum oil-flooded pumps, and our Advantage-W multi-vacuum pumps.
