Italian technology plast / October 2024 |
Baracco is a leading manufacturer of underwater pelletisers and innovative systems for the plastics and recycling industry . Founded in 2018 in Occhiobello ( near Rovigo ), the company stands out for its commitment to technological innovation and sustainability . For some years now , Baracco has developed technical solutions aimed at enhancing the energy efficiency of its systems . Detailed studies and analyses of energy consumption have shown that much can be done to cut down specific consumption by focusing on different critical points . During 2023 , Baracco started up several pelletising systems both in Italy and in Europe ; today the company operates on the international market where it delivers complete plastic pellet production and drying equipment . Thanks to the deployment of 4.0 technology solutions and careful monitoring , the company has been able to collect a quantity of data useful for the improvement of the efficiency of its products and for the definition of advanced preventive maintenance methods geared to ensuring maximum efficiency . Since the beginning of 2024 , the company has been focused on ISO EN 9001 certification , which it expects to obtain by 2025 . The company management is convinced that in today ’ s competitive and technologically advanced market , the need to ensure consistent quality in design and production is fundamental to achieve increasingly ambitious goals .
AFTER-SALE SUPPORT The corporate philosophy of Baracco has been constantly oriented to customer satisfaction and for this reason the company has created a maintenance and after-sale department that meets the customers ’ needs by offering improvement and assistance

crystalliser , was developed with the aim of creating the conditions for the recycling of post-consumer PET . During 2023 , Baracco installed and started up several R-PET production systems , introducing an innovative technological concept of continuous crystallisation . This crystallisation method represents a significant step towards the optimisation of the production process , allowing precise control of the crystallisation of recycled
PET . By controlling the pellet temperature via a proprietary algorithm , it is possible to determine the dwelling time inside the crystalliser and define the degree of crystallinity of the R-PET accurately . This system represents an important step forward in the recovery and improvement of R-PET . The degree of crystallinity is in fact decisive for ensuring the optimal conditions for the use of the material in the production of plastic parts .
