In the plastics recycling industry, plastic film shredder machines are an important piece of equipment used to convert waste plastic products into pieces of feedstock for reprocessing. However, to ensure safe operation and proper functioning of the plastic waste crusher machine, operators need to pay attention to some key things when using a plastic crusher.

Safe operating procedures

Before operating a plastic film shredder machine, it is important to first familiarise yourself with and strictly follow safety procedures. This includes wearing appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE), such as gloves and goggles, to minimize the risk of potential injury. In addition, the operator should receive training on how the plastic waste crusher machine works and emergency shutdown procedures to act quickly if needed.

Regularly check the condition of the machine

Before using a plastic film shredder machine, it is vital to carry out regular machine checks. Ensure that all parts and connections are tightened securely and there are no loose places. Meanwhile, check the wear and tear of the blades and replace the badly worn blades in time to maintain the cutting effect and prolong the life of the machine.

Adjust the appropriate operating parameters

The operating parameters of the plastic recycle machine crusher, such as blade speed, feed speed, etc., need to be reasonably adjusted according to the characteristics of different plastic materials. Appropriate operating parameters can improve the granulation efficiency and reduce the machine’s wear and tear and energy consumption. During operation, pay attention to the production situation at any time and adjust the parameters in time to achieve the best results.

Pay attention to the cleanliness of the material

Before feeding, make sure of the cleanliness of the plastic material. Impurities, foreign matter, etc. may cause damage to the machine or affect the crushing effect. Therefore, pre-treating the plastic to ensure that it does not contain harmful foreign materials is one of the key concerns of the operator.

Avoid plastic film shredder machine overloading

Avoiding overloading is the key to ensuring the normal operation of the plastic film shredder machine. Too much plastic put in may lead to machine overload operation, which not only affects the production efficiency but also damages the machine parts. Therefore, in the operation process, according to the rated capacity of the plastic shredder machine to reasonably control the amount of feeding, to ensure that the machine is in a safe and stable working condition.
