Plastic film recycling line is a production equipment specially designed to process various plastic film wastes. This equipment converts waste plastic film into reusable pellets through the processes of shredding, cleaning and granulation.
Recycling lines typically include components such as shredders, washing tanks, dewatering machines, and granulator machines that efficiently remove dirt and impurities from the film to ensure the quality of the final product. This recycling line not only improves the recycling rate of waste plastics but also provides economic benefits to the company while helping to reduce environmental pollution.
What Is Plastic Film Recycling Line?
The plastic bag recycling plant is an automated pelletizing production plant including crushing, washing, dewatering, melting, granulating, and other processes. Through this granulation process, various plastic film wastes, such as plastic bags, packaging films, agricultural films, etc., are converted into high-quality recycled pellets.
The following video of a pelletizing job will help you understand.
Why Choose Our Soft Plastic Recycling Machine?

- Wide Range of Applications: both small and large recycling companies can meet the capacity requirements.
Raw Materials and Finished Products
The main raw materials processed in plastic film recycling lines include various plastic film wastes, such as polyethylene film (PE) and polypropylene film (PP).
These wastes usually come from supermarket shopping bags, packaging films, agricultural films, woven bags, beverage packaging films, frozen food packaging films, shrink wrap, stretch films, medical plastic films, laminated film as well as cling film, PP raffia bags, cement bags, jumbo bags, and so on.
After being processed through polythene bag recycling machines, high-quality recycled plastic pellets can be obtained and these recycled raw materials can be used to manufacture new plastic products.
Workflow of Plastic Film Recycling Plant
Step 1: Plastic Film Crushing
The scrap grinder machine is designed to crush materials into smaller pieces for easier subsequent cleaning and pelletizing.
It can add water, enhancing material flow and reducing blade friction heat. Made from 60Si2Mn material, the blades are durable, and the screen hole size ranges from 40-50mm.
The machine can be used independently; when operating alone, a fan can be installed at the discharge outlet to improve material extraction.
Step 2: Cleaning of Crushed Materials
The plastic film washing machine is made of stainless steel or iron plate and is fitted with several toothed agitators that force the plastic pieces forward. It is carried out by rinsing the crushed material, thus settling impurities and removing dirt. The cleaned plastic pieces are extracted by the end lifter to the next step.
The length of this washing machine can be customized according to the requirements, and the drainage outlet is designed with a large diameter of 200 mm, which enables fast drainage and thus improves production efficiency.
Step 3: Dewatering with A Centrifugal Dryer
Plastic dryer machines utilizes centrifugal force to reduce the moisture content of materials to 2-3%. This effectively prevents excessive moisture from causing excessive smoke during the granulation process, ensuring smoother and cleaner production.
Step 4: Plastic Melting and Pelletizing
Plastic pelletizer is the most important equipment in the plastic film recycling line. After the material enters the extruder, it is melted into a paste under the action of the heating device. The molten plastic is then extruded through the die to form a continuous strip of material. After cooling, it is cut into small pellets.
Step 5: Cooling Plastic Strands By Cooling Tank
A Cooling tank is one of the main types of equipment for plastic film recycling plant, which is made of stainless steel and does not rust or corrode. The plastic strips produced by the plastic pelletizer are cooled in cooling tank to ensure that they remain stable in shape and quality.
Step 6: Cutting Plastic Strips Into Small Pellets
After the plastic strips have cooled, the plastic cutter machine is used to cut the long strips into smaller granules for different applications. This step can also be used to control the size and shape of the pellets according to customer requirements.
