A device for recycling plastics, comprising: a) at least one processing unit, in particular a cutting compactor or container of prior art with rotating mixing and comminution tools, wherein the material, if necessary, is comminuted and is converted to fluid form, heated whilst retaining its lumpiness and pourability, permanently mixed and, if necessary, degassed, softened, dried, increased in its viscosity and/or crystallised, b) at least one melting unit (2 for melting the processed material, at least to the extent that a filtration is possible, in the form of an extruder with a screw rotatable in a housing, with a first screw section, c) at least one filtration unit for filtering the melt, d) at least one homogenisation unit for homogenising the filtered melt, e) at least one degassing unit for degassing the homogenised melt, and f) at least one removal unit for removing and/or at least one subsequent processing unit for processing the melt, - wherein the units to or mentioned are each connected on after each other in the specified sequence, and are linked after or to one another and the plastic material or the melt passes through these units to or in this sequence, characterised in that - the homogenisation unit is installed in the interior of a further housing, and wherein the homogenisation unit comprises an upstream Maddock shearing part and, downstream from it, a homogeniser, aligned coaxially to the Maddock shearing part, in the form of a cylindrical rotating body, wherein a larger number of elevations is arranged on the outer surface of the homogeniser and wherein the homogeniser is rotatable in the housing and therefore exerts a shearing and mixing action on the polymer film or hose flowing round it. - wherein a second screw section is pivotably mounted in the housing downstream from the homogeniser, which section feeds the plasticised plastic material into a degassing region or degassing unit 5, - wherein the first screw section, the second screw section and the homogeniser are arranged coaxially. a) at least one processing unit, in particular a cutting compactor or container of prior art with rotating mixing and comminution tools, wherein the material, if necessary, is comminuted and is converted to fluid form, heated whilst retaining its lumpiness and pourability, permanently mixed and, if necessary, degassed, softened, dried, increased in its viscosity and/or crystallised, b) at least one melting unit (2 for melting the processed material, at least to the extent that a filtration is possible, in the form of an extruder with a screw rotatable in a housing, with a first screw section, c) at least one filtration unit for filtering the melt, d) at least one homogenisation unit for homogenising the filtered melt, e) at least one degassing unit for degassing the homogenised melt, and f) at least one removal unit for removing and/or at least one subsequent processing unit for processing the melt, -
