PET bottle recycling line has now become a necessary production line for major plastic recycling plants. If you want to engage in the plastic recycling business, then you need to know more about this production line in detail. Next, we will give you a detailed introduction to the various aspects of the plastic bottle recycling line, so as to solve your questions about this plastic recycling line.
Introduction of Pet Bottle Recycling Line
PET bottle recycling line is a set of machinery and equipment used for the recycling of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) plastic bottles. In fact, our pet bottle recycling line can recycle plastic bottles made of a variety of materials, except that pet is the most common.
PET is a commonly used material for packaging beverages, food, and other consumer products. PET bottle recycling lines are designed to collect, sort, clean, and process used PET bottles, transforming them into reusable plastic flakes.
Complete the Pet Bottle Recycling Process
The complete PET bottle recycling process includes de-labeling, shredding, high-temperature washing, secondary washing, drying, and storage. Each step is indispensable. Of course, we can also customize the exclusive plastic bottle recycling line according to the specific needs of customers.
Plastic Bottle Recycling Machine in Pet Bottle Recycling Line
Plastic Bottle Conveyor
This plastic bottle recycling machine is used to convey plastic bottles to the plastic de-labeling machine. There are several baffles on the machine, the baffles can prevent the plastic bottles from falling during the conveying process. The steel frame construction ensures the longevity of the machine.
Plastic Bottle De-Labeling Machine
Plastic Bottle De-Labeling Machine is designed to remove labels from pet/plastic bottles. Compared to manual label removal, plastic bottle de-labeling machine is characterized by high productivity and clean label removal. The machine can de-label bottles of different sizes.
Plastic Bottle Crusher Machine
As the name suggests, a plastic bottle crushing machine is used to crush plastic bottles. It crushes PET bottles into plastic flakes of uniform size. The plastic bottle crusher is one of the main machines in this PET bottle recycling line.
Plastic Bottle Flakes Washing Tank
The plastic bottle flake Washing tank has two purposes. The first purpose is to separate PET caps from PET flakes. The second purpose is to clean crushed plastic flakes. There are several moving flaps in the machine. It can push the plastic flakes forward.
Pet Flakes Hot Washing Machine
The Pet flakes hot washing machine washes away contaminants such as oils and beverage liquids from plastic bottle flakes. During the plastic flakes washing process, the operator needs to add detergent to the machine to increase the cleaning effort. As the machine starts, the paddles inside the machine rub against the plastic bottle pieces to clean them.
Plastic Flakes Friction Washing Machine
In order to achieve the purpose of thorough cleaning, we have added another plastic flakes friction washing machine to the PET bottle recycling line. When the plastic flakes enter the machine, the high-speed rotating screw will stir the PET flakes to clean them fully. Under the action of centrifugal force, the machine can clean the surface of plastic PET flakes from sand, soil, and other dirt. Finally, the material is rinsed with clean water.
Pet Flakes Dryer
Plastic Bottle Chip Dryer is the last important machine in the plastic bottle recycling line. The dehydration rate of this machine is up to 97%. The machine is mainly driven by the motor to rotate the spindle at high speed.
At the same time, this allows the plastic bottle chips inside the machine to rotate at high speed as well. The centrifugal force of the machine’s rotation dries the plastic flakes.
Plastic Bottle Chip Storage Boxes
The storage box is used to store dried plastic bottle chips. The machine is made of stainless steel and is characterized by its robustness and durability. There is a small outlet at the bottom of the machine for subsequent packaging.
