What the source says
The different plastics are then placed in a custom-made extrusion machine at varying temperatures. This allows the machine to reach the various melting points of the different plastics, mixing them without compromising their integrity and removing the need to melt only certain plastic types at a time. The heating mechanism, done through extrusion, emits zero smoke, and can reach temperatures of 50˚C to 400˚C.
