Omega Series: the power of integrated shredding and extrusion
Eliminate the need for separate pre-shredding stations. The Omega Series unites a high-torque, slow-speed shredder directly with Plasmac’s Short Screw Technology (S.S.T.) extruder in one compact footprint. Designed to process the toughest post-industrial waste (from heavy start-up lumps and full reels to loose parts) it turns bulk scrap into premium pellets in a single, energy-efficient step. Choose the configuration that fits your plant: the ultra-compact unit or the high-capacity industrial line
One Step, Maximum Efficiency
Traditional recycling often involves a grinder, a conveyor, and then an extruder. Omega just simplifies the process, making it profitable from day one.
- Direct processing. Feed heavy, bulky, or solid waste directly. The shredder prepares the material and feeds the extruder screw immediately, reducing dust and thermal history
- Water-Free technology. Our unique slow-rotating shredder design requires no cooling water on the rotor, eliminating leaks and maintenance headaches common in competitor machines
- Intelligent control. The shredder and extruder communicate in real-time. The system automatically adjusts shredding speed to match extruder load, preventing overfeeding
- Lowest energy cost. By removing intermediate transport steps and optimizing the drive systems, Omega delivers the highest output per kW in the market
Find the right fit for your production: choose your Omega
Whether you have limited floor space or massive scrap volumes, there is an Omega for you.
Omega Compact
The space-saver champion. Delivers full shredder-extruder capabilities in the smallest footprint available on the market. Ideal for inline recycling or restricted plant layouts
Omega (Standard & Heavy Duty)
The industrial workhorse. Scalable from 150 to 250+ kg/h (Models S, M, L), designed for central recycling stations handling massive reels, large lumps, and high-volume bulk waste
Suitable materials for Omega Series
The Omega Series is built for materials that direct-feed extruders can’t handle.
Reels
The Omega Series is built to handle off-spec or scrap reels directly. The integrated shredder processes rolls efficiently, eliminating the need for pre-cutting and simplifying waste logistics
Purges & lumps
Recover the heavy start-up blobs and extruder purges that usually end up in the landfill
Loose parts
Process sprues, runners, and defective injection-moulded parts efficiently
Wide trims
Handle wide edge trims or plastic waste that requires densification before extrusion
Our technology: the heart of every Omega model
Reliability isn’t accidental; it’s engineered. The Omega Series is built upon two proprietary pillars that set Plasmac apart from standard recycling machinery.
Short Screw Technology (S.S.T.)
Conventional extruders stress the polymer. Our unique 10:1 L/D dual-diameter screw does the opposite. By melting the material rapidly and gently, S.S.T. minimizes residence time and shear heat. The result? A recycled pellet with superior optical and mechanical properties, virtually indistinguishable from virgin resin.
Slow-speed shredding intelligence
We redesigned the size reduction process. Our high-torque, low-RPM shredder fractures tough waste without generating excess heat or fines. Crucially, it requires zero water cooling on the rotor, eliminating the corrosion and maintenance leaks that plague competitor systems while delivering a consistent, dust-free feed.
Global Service & Plasmac-Hub Support
A heavy-duty machine deserves heavy-duty backing. We support your Omega system throughout its entire lifecycle to guarantee maximum uptime.
Performance tuning
From optimizing shredder load parameters to fine-tuning extruder temperature profiles, our global team of expert technicians ensures your Omega runs at its highest possible efficiency for your specific scrap type.
Plasmac-Hub: 360° digital control
Take command of your maintenance. The Plasmac-Hub portal gives you instant access to your machine’s health data, allows you to track component wear, and lets you identify and order critical spare parts (from shredder knives to heater bands) with a single click.
Remote troubleshooting
Minimize downtime with our new AR system.
Using advanced Augmented Reality tools, we can see exactly what your operator sees, diagnosing mechanical or electrical issues remotely and guiding your team to a fix in real-time.
Proven performance, trusted worldwide
The Omega Series powers the most demanding recycling lines across the globe. From processing massive start-up lumps in Asia to recovering technical film reels in Europe, our integrated shredder-extruders help producers turn their toughest waste liabilities into valuable assets.

Don’t just take our word for it. Bring your most challenging materials to our Tech Center for a technical trial.
Witness the Omega Series shred and extrude your waste in real-time, measure the throughput, and verify the exceptional quality of the pellets produced from your own scrap.
Circular economy
True sustainability means leaving no scrap behind. The Omega Series empowers manufacturers to close the loop on 100% of their post-industrial waste, including the heavy and bulky items that are often discarded. By reprocessing these difficult materials in-house, you eliminate the carbon footprint of waste transport, reduce virgin resin consumption, and make zero-waste manufacturing a profitable reality
