From Waste to Worth: The Transformation Process

1. Input Material: Shredded PP/PE Regrind & Film
2. Intensive Washing & Friction Cleaning: High-speed removal of contaminants.
3. Sink-Float Separation: Density-based separation of plastics from heavier impurities.
4. Mechanical & Thermal Drying (Squeezer/Dryer): Efficient dewatering to <3% moisture.
5. Extrusion & Homogenisation: Melting and mixing plastic for uniformity.
6. Pelletising: Cutting molten plastic into consistent, high-quality pellets.
Output: High-Quality Reusable Pellets

Key Equipment & Specifications

Our comprehensive washing line integrates powerful components to transform shredded PP/PE regrind into high-quality reusable pellets. This includes a friction washer, an efficient flotation tank, a rapid centrifugal dryer, an innovative squeezer, robust extruders, and a precise pellet cutting system. Explore some key components:

Friction Washer

The high-speed friction washer acts as a powerhouse cleaner. Its rapidly spinning shaft with angled paddles, encased in a mesh screen tunnel, dynamically scrubs materials. Strategically placed water jets ensure thorough rinsing, making it highly recommended for superior cleanliness.

Sink-Float Tank

This dual-action component is crucial for:

  • Deep Cleaning: Immersion in a large water tank loosens stubborn dirt and contaminants from the plastic film.
  • Smart Separation: Heavier debris sinks, while the valuable plastic film floats, allowing for easy separation and removal of contaminants.

Squeezer (Dewatering & Densifying)

Effective moisture removal is vital before extrusion. The squeezer employs mechanical force and gentle heating to compress and dry the plastic film, reducing moisture content to typically around 3%.

This not only prevents bubbles during extrusion but also densifies the material, making it ideal for feeding into the extruder and ensuring high-quality, bubble-free pellets.

This overview highlights key machinery. Remember, every recycling challenge is unique. The optimal configuration depends on your specific plastic type and contamination levels. We excel in designing custom-built lines tailored to your precise needs.

Frequently Asked Questions

What types of plastic can this line process?

This line is primarily designed for PP (polypropylene) and PE (polyethylene) materials, including post-consumer film, agricultural film, and post-industrial regrind. We can assess suitability for other similar thermoplastics upon request.

What is the typical moisture content of the final pellets?

Our advanced squeezer and drying systems are engineered to achieve a moisture content of approximately 3% or less. This is ideal for producing high-quality pellets and ensuring trouble-free downstream extrusion processes.

Can the washing line be customised?

Absolutely. We specialise in tailoring our recycling lines to meet specific client requirements. This includes adjustments for different types and levels of contamination, varying input materials, and desired output capacities and qualities.

What is the lead time for a new machine?

Lead times can vary based on the specific configuration, level of customisation, and current production schedules. Please contact us with your requirements for an accurate delivery estimate.
