Plastic pelletizing extruder machines as a common plastic processing equipment, and their energy consumption is one of the important costs that enterprises need to consider in production. In the production process, to understand the energy consumption of plastic recycling pelletizer machines and the factors affecting the enterprise’s reasonable cost control, improving production efficiency is of great significance.

Equipment type and specification

First of all, the energy consumption of plastic pelletizing extruder machines is closely related to their equipment type and specification. Different types of granulators (e.g., single-screw, twin-screw, ring granulators, etc.) have different structures and working principles, and therefore their energy consumption varies. Larger-size plastic recycling pelletizer machines usually have higher energy consumption because they require more power to drive the larger working parts.

Workload and capacity

Secondly, the energy consumption of a plastic pelletizing extruder machine also depends on its workload and processing capacity. With high workloads and large processing volumes, plastic film recycling machines consume more power to complete the processes of melting, extruding and cutting plastic. Therefore, the higher the workload and throughput of the production process, the higher the energy consumption of the plastic pelletizer.

Material type and characteristics

Finally, the energy consumption of a plastic pelletizing extruder machine is also affected by the type and characteristics of the plastic material being processed. Different types of plastics have different melting points, viscosities and flow properties and therefore require different heating and extrusion energies. Some specialized plastic materials, such as polymers, may require higher heating temperatures and more energy to achieve the desired pelletizing results, resulting in higher energy consumption.
