RAS+REF
Our best-seller, with an extra gear

RAS+REF – the evolution of RAS

RAS+REF is the evolution of RAS, our most famous melt filter, and integrates the REF system into a single machine.
This solution is designed to recover more usable plastic material, allow broader operating modes, and further reduce waste.
It offers effective filtration and optimized output in a compact, efficient, and fully automated system.

Designed for plants that require production versatility and reduced waste, RAS+REF is the ideal choice for processing materials with a high percentage of contamination, while still maintaining pellet quality and minimizing losses.

RAS+REF combines the simplicity of the scraping system with the option of working in backflush mode, opening new possibilities for those who use mesh screens as well as punched and laser filters.

A smart solution to maximize yield even in complex processes, delivering high performance and a significant reduction of waste.

Two filters in one machine, ready for every challenge

RAS+REF is equipped with two separate filtration modes: one to discharge larger contamination, one to filter finer impurities.
By changing a few components, the machine can switch in less than 30 minutes from scraping to backflush mode, depending on the material to be processed.

  • Two filtration modes in a single system: scraping or backflush.
  • REF system easily integrated by replacing the scraping components with backflush components.
  • Suitable for both post-consumer and post-production plastics.

Mode switching set directly via touch screen.

How RAS+REF works

RAS+REF is the flexible solution for recycling lines aiming to get the most out of their process.
By replacing three components and adjusting the touch screen settings, the system can easily switch from scraping to backflush mode.

This way, two technologies are available in a single machine:

  • RAS for handling any contamination level, even the most critical
  • REF for working with mesh screen and efficiently processing post-production waste

The result: one compact solution with all the advantages of FIMIC technology.

RAS

Two blades clean the screen continuously, the scraper collects material and directs it into two channels: one for actual contamination, the other for recoverable material. In pressure mode, the system waits until the preset value is reached before rotating the scraper and opening the valve

REF

The cleaner replaces the scraper; it is hollow inside. During rotation, the backflush action cleans the contact point with the mesh screen. The valve opens automatically, discharging contamination collected on the mesh screen.

One technology, endless possibilities.

Cookie Policy

Published on 18/04/2025

Dear user, this document describes the types, purposes and persistence times of cookies used and operating on the websites https://fimic.it, https://travel.fimic.it (hereinafter "Portal" or "Site"), as well as allow you to select your preferences regarding their use.

Definition, characteristics and regulatory application

Cookies are small text files that websites visited by the user send and store on their computer or mobile device, to be then retransmitted to the same websites on subsequent visits. Precisely because of cookies, a website remembers the actions and preferences of the user (such as, for example, login data, the chosen language, font sizes, etc.) so that such parameters do not have to be set at each new visit. Cookies, therefore, are used to perform computer authentication, session monitoring and storage of information regarding the activities of users accessing a website and can also contain a unique identification code that allows you to keep track of the user's navigation within the site itself for statistical or advertising purposes.

Some operations or functionality of the Portal could not be performed or guaranteed without the use of cookies, which in some cases are therefore technically necessary for the functioning of the Website itself.

Depending on their characteristics and functions, cookies can remain saved on the user's computer for different periods of time: we therefore have so-called session cookies, which are automatically deleted when the browser is closed, and so-called persistent cookies, which remain on the user's device until a predetermined expiration date, or until possible manual deletion.

Based on applicable regulations, express user consent is not always required to use cookies. In particular, so-called "technical cookies" usually do not require such consent, that is, those used solely to ensure the correct functioning of the Website, or to provide a service explicitly requested by the User.

Conversely, in order to be able to use cookies that are not strictly necessary for the correct functioning of the Portal, but are instead functional to the collection of statistical data, or aimed at creating profiles relating to the visitor, in order to send advertising messages in line with the preferences expressed by the same in the course of browsing the Internet, user consent is usually required, according to applicable regulations.

Types of cookies

Below are listed for completeness the main types of cookies that exist:

  • Technical cookies: strictly necessary for the operation of the site or to allow you to enjoy the requested content and services;
  • Analytics cookies: are instead those intended to provide the site manager with purely statistical data such as, for example, the total number of visitors to the site and each of its pages for each particular time band. they can be assimilated to technical cookies if used for site optimization purposes directly by the site owner. If, instead, the processing of such statistical analyses is entrusted to third parties, user data must be previously minimized and cannot be combined with other processing nor transmitted to further third parties.
  • Functionality cookies: those used to activate specific Site functions and a series of selected criteria (for example, the language) in order to improve the service provided;
  • Profiling cookies: those used to profile the user based on their behavior on the site. They are generally leveraged in order to send the user advertising messages in line with the preferences expressed in the course of browsing the internet
  • Social network cookies: these are cookies that allow the user to share the Site's content on social networks, or to activate the "Like" or "Follow" functions of social networks. These features allow Social Networks to identify their users and collect information even while browsing other sites.

Source of origin of cookies

Cookies can also be distinguished based on their source of origin. We will therefore have:

  • First party (or proprietary) cookies: are created and used only by the web server of the Website and are not transferable to third parties. This type of cookie is generally used to personalize the browsing experience, automatically recognizing a User who has already visited the Website, not being readable on a domain different from the one in which they were created.
  • Third party cookies: are cookies created by domains other than the one of the Website being visited by the User. Third-party cookies are readable both on the domain they were created on and on any other site able to read the code of the server that created them. Third parties that set cookies on the Site may act as autonomous data controllers, in pursuit of their own purposes, or may act as suppliers of the Website owner, as data processors.
