The plastic extruder machine, or plastic pelletizing machine, is a kind of equipment specially designed for recycling waste plastics and processing them into plastic granules, which is widely used in the plastic recycling and regeneration industry.

Through reasonable design and reliable operation performance, this equipment can process all kinds of waste plastics into uniform granules for manufacturing new plastic products. We offer a wide range of models and configurations of plastic granulators, which can meet the needs of different customers.

Advantages of Plastic Extruder Machine

  • Flexible Production Capacity: The machine offers a production range of 100kg/h to 500kg/h, accommodating various production scales.
  • Diverse Options: A wide range of pelletizer models is available, tailored to the raw material characteristics and production requirements of customers.
  • Customizável: Configurations can be adjusted based on specific customer needs to meet unique production demands.
  • Well-Designed Structure: The equipment is user-friendly, operates smoothly, and produces high-quality pellets.
  • Flexible application: can be used alone or with a crusher machine, washing machine, etc. to form a complete granulation line.

Applicable Raw Materials:

Plastic extruder machines are suitable for a wide range of post-consumer and post-industrial raw materials:

  • Post-consumer plastics: Such as plastic bags, PE film, food packaging materials, shrink wrap, LLDPE stretch film, bubble wrap, laminated film, jumbo bags, BOPP film, drip irrigation tape, food containers, Injection molded products, plastic barrels, battery casing, plastic baskets, flakes, etc.
  • Post-industrial plastics: e.g. plastic pipes, edges and corners, injection molding waste, etc.

Benefits of Finished Plastic Pellets

The processed plastic granules have the following characteristics:

  • Uniform particle size, stable quality;
  • Fewer impurities, easy to reprocess.

These pellets can be used in a wide range of applications for the production of new plastic products, including injection molded parts, films, tubes, and so on.

Working Principle of Plastic Pellet Making Machine

The plastic extruder machine completes the process by the following steps:

  • The raw material enters the feed inlet and is pushed to the heating zone by the screw.
  • Under the action of the heating device, the plastic is melted.
  • The melted plastic is extruded through the die head, forming pellets or strip-shaped materials.
  • Depending on the pelletizing method, the final product is shaped into pellets through a water ring or strand cutting.

Water Ring Pelletizer System

Water ring pelletizing is a form of plastic pellet cutting that is suitable for handling molten plastics with high flowability. After the molten plastic is extruded through the die head, it is cut into pellets using a high-speed rotating pelletizing knife, and the granules are cooled by a circular water stream to prevent sticking. The cooled pellets follow the flow of water into a dewatering plant where the water is separated to give dry plastic pellets suitable for further processing or use.

3 Types of Heating for Waste Plastic Extruder

Existem três métodos principais de aquecimento para máquinas extrusoras de plástico no mercado: aquecimento eletromagnético, dispositivo de aquecimento cerâmico e dispositivo de aquecimento de ferro.

electromagnetic heating

Este método gera calor por meio de indução eletromagnética, que pode aumentar rapidamente a temperatura e é adequado para produção de alta eficiência.

O aquecedor de engomar é aquecido por termopares e é adequado para produções que requerem precisão de alta temperatura.

Ceramic heating device

O método de aquecimento cerâmico possui estabilidade e uniformidade, adequado para o processo produtivo que necessita manter determinada temperatura.

3 types of Die Heads for Plastic Pelletizer

A máquina extrusora de plástico é equipada com três tipos diferentes de cabeçotes de molde para atender às diferentes necessidades de pelotização, ou seja, cabeçote de engrenagem elétrica, filtro automático de escória e cabeçote de molde hidráulico. Os clientes podem escolher a matriz certa de acordo com suas necessidades.

Cabeça de matriz de engrenagem elétrica

O cabeçote de engrenagem elétrica do granulador de reciclagem de plástico é adequado para a produção de pellets que requer alta precisão e consistência. É acionado por engrenagens motorizadas para controlar com precisão o tamanho e a forma dos pellets.

Cabeça de matriz hidráulica

A matriz hidráulica é acionada por um sistema hidráulico e é adequada para a produção de pellets que exigem alta pressão e densidade.
