• Dry doser: multiple use of energy for drying and dosing. This concept aims to use energy a number of times in both dosing and drying areas and to thereby significantly reduce overall energy consumption. 
• Matrix coupler: automatic material distribution station for small conveyor lines. Conventional material distribution stations require manual reconnection of hoses leading to the conveying equipment when changing material. The matrix coupler automates material distribution by means of a new multiple separator design, thus preventing risk of cross-contamination in adjacent lines.
• Octa-Flow-Bag: emptying of residual material from octabins. This type of semi-bulk packaging is widely used to deliver plastic granulate. Residual material often remains, however, in the corners and has to be manually removed by vacuuming. This new development involves automatically taking these residual amounts of material to the centre of the octabin, from where they can be easily removed.
• Inductive heating: energy transfer by radiation. Pre-heated air flowing through plastic granulates removes humidity from the material. A novel means of automatic drying is based on inductive transfer of energy by radiation. This is highly efficient and can be precisely controlled.
