Plastic granulating machines play an important role in plastic recycling, by processing waste plastics, granular recycled plastics can be produced. This article will introduce the plastic granulator equipment that can be used for recycling plastics, and its advantages in environmental protection and resource utilization.
The working process of plastic granulating machine
The working process of a plastic granules extruder machine is relatively simple and efficient. First, waste plastics are introduced into the pelletizing machine through a feeding system. The plastic is then heated to a high temperature inside the plastic granules extruder machine and gradually melts into a liquid state. After a series of pressurization and extrusion processes, the plastic is compressed into long strips. Finally, these pellets are cut into small, uniform particles through the plastic pellet cutting machine.
Types of plastics that plastic granulators can recycle
Plastic granulating machines are highly applicable and can be used to recycle many types of plastics, including but not limited to:
- Polyethylene (PE): polyethylene is a common plastic widely used in plastic bags and other products. Plastic granulating machines can efficiently recycle and make pellets from discarded polyethylene, offering the possibility of its reuse.
- Polypropylene (PP): Polypropylene is a kind of plastic with good mechanical properties and heat resistance, which is commonly used in plastic packing boxes and so on. Through the processing of plastic granulating machines, waste polypropylene can be converted into high-quality pellets for remanufacturing.
- Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC): PVC is a kind of plastic with good weather resistance, which is widely used in construction, cables and other fields. Plastic pelletizer can effectively recycle the waste PVC and reduce the impact on the environment.
- Polystyrene (PS): Polystyrene is a common transparent plastic, used in the manufacture of disposable tableware, packaging materials and so on. Through the plastic granulator equipment, the waste polystyrene can be processed into granules again, reducing the waste of resources.
