Waste Treatment Sector
Robust, low-wear components for collection and compaction systems
Tecno Plastic works alongside leading companies in waste treatment and collection to supply high-performance plastic components capable of withstanding daily wear in highly contaminated and aggressive environments.
Thanks to self-lubricating properties, wear resistance, and low friction, plastic materials are the ideal choice for collection vehicles, compactors, and handling systems.
Their high mechanical performance and reduced weight make them a cost-effective alternative to traditional metal components.
Problems solved in waste treatment
- Rapid degradation of components in dusty and contaminated environments
- Accelerated wear caused by friction and mechanical impacts
- Excessive weight reducing vehicle performance
- Recurring costs for replacements and plant downtime
Advantages for the waste sector
- High wear resistance under severe operating conditions
- Excellent sliding properties and self-lubrication
- Reduced maintenance costs and extended service life
- Weight reduction for vehicles and equipment
- Lower noise and vibration for smoother operation
Recommended materials
- PA6G / PA6G + MoS₂ / PA6G + Oil – Mechanical strength and low friction
- PET – High hardness and dimensional stability
- PE – Excellent resistance to impact and chemical agents
Typical applications
- Bushings and sliding shoes in joints and articulated mechanisms
- Rollers, spacers, and sliding supports for compaction systems
- Structural components for loaders and conveyors
