The plastic granules making machine, also known as a plastic pelletizer machine, is used to melt and extrude plastic waste into recycled plastic pellets with high profit. A twin-stage pelletizing system is the common model for plastic recycling plants, its capacity can reach 100-500kg/h, 2200-11000kg per day.

Meanwhile, single and three-stage pelletizing machines are also available in Shuliy Machinery, the specific extruding model is decided by your recycle materials, desired output, factory area, budget, etc.

Features of The Plastic Granules Making Machine

Multiple Configurations of Pelletizing System

We provide three different match styles for plastic granules making machines.

Firstly, a single-stage pelletizing system. It is a basic choice for recycling beginners. Its output and price are friendly for new entrepreneurs in the recycling area.

Secondly, a double-stage pelletizing system is the ideal one for most plastic recycling plants, no matter how big or small your plant is. The first stage we can call it a “mother pelletizer machine”, it can heat the recycle materials into plastic melt. But one plastic melting duration is short and coarse. It is not possible to melt the raw material evenly, especially for some plastics with high impurity content, high melting points or high output.

Therefore, we always recommend setting up a “baby pelletizing machine” after the first stage. A second stage pelletizer can help the recycler reduce the impurity and enhance plastic granule quality.

Finaly, a three-stage pelletizing system is also very popular in the recycling industry. It is designed for the extrusion pelletizing line of a capacity above 500kg/h, or the recycler has a very high standard for the final plastic granules. If interested, contact us to know more.

Alternate Plastic Melting Methods

Since the process of plastic pelletizing requires high temperatures, the cost of energy consumption in the plastic pelletizing industry also needs to be considered.

Nowadays, the plastic granules making machine on the market has formed a pattern of mainly electromagnetic heating, supplemented by iron heating coil heating and ceramic heating plastic pelletizing machines. The effect of electromagnetic heating is the best compared with the other two. The waste plastic granules making machine developed by Shuliy Machinery adopts the new technology of a high-frequency electromagnetic heater, which is energy efficient with fast heating speed and is safe and reliable.

Efficient Pelletizing Die Heads

The die head of the plastic pelletizer machine has different types. They are electric gear die heads and hydraulic die heads. The electric gear die head needs to change the die screen inside manually, and it has a lower price which is more suitable for beginners with no experience.

The hydraulic model with double die heads is much more efficient. When one of the inside screens is dirty and needs to be changed, another pelletizing die will start to work continually. It saves time and human power, it also can meet the needs of bigger plastic extrusion capacity and extruding force.

Customers can choose the right die head for their recycling extruder machine according to their needs and budget.

If you are confused of choosing the proper die head, contact us now, our sales manager will recommend the right one for you according to your needs.

Pelletizer Cutting Type

strand pelletizing system
  • Strand pelletizing system

In strand pelletizing, the die head extrudes the plastic melt into strips, which are cooled and hardened in a water-cooling tank, and then cut by a plastic granules cutter.

  • Water ring pelletizing system

The water ring pelleting system would be different. The plastic melt is extruded through the extruder die head and then cut directly by the rotating blades.

The plastic granules are immediately cooled in water, flushed out and then separated from the water on a vibrating table, and then dried in centrifugal dewatering equipment.

What Are the Suitable Recycling Materials?

The granules manufacturing machine adopts a special screw design and different configurations, which is suitable for producing PP, HDPE, LDPE, LLDPE, PS, PA, ABS, PVC, and other kinds of plastics for pelletizing.

Shuliy plastic granules making machines can process many raw materials, including injection molding regrind materials, thermoformed products, T-shirt bag cut-offs, edge trims, defective blown film products, waste industrial film, agricultural film, household shopping bags, pipes, woven bags, tubs, bottles, barrels, furniture, daily necessities, etc. The granules manufacturing machine can help us to reduce plastic pollution. It is the most versatile, widely used, and most popular plastic recycling extruding machine in the waste plastic recycling industry.

Final Granules of Pelletizer Machine

The end products are recycled granules, they play a vital role in the plastics recycling industry and their quality has a direct impact on the performance of downstream products and market applications.

Shuliy pelletizers produce plastic pellets that meet the following criteria.

  • High purity: High-quality plastic recycling pellets have a high degree of purity, as Shuliy’s granules making equipment and its conveyor avoid the mixing of impurities such as metal, paper, oil, and other non-plastic materials during recycling, effectively increasing the purity of the product.
  • High Uniformity: Shuliy granules making machine uses a uniquely designed three-stage screw that ensures stable temperatures during the melting, plasticizing and extruding stages. The complete melting and plasticizing to ensure uniformity of the final extruded granules’ quality and size.
  • Color and gloss: Shuliy granules machine produces pellets with a consistent color and good gloss, and when used correctly, avoid air bubbles and black blemishes.

Structures of PP LDPE HDPE Granule Making Machine

This plastic granules making machine for recycling is mainly composed of a feeding port, screw press, press chamber, heating device, discharge port, mold head, reducer, and other parts. This plastic pelletizing machine is the main recycling machine in the plastic recycling line and can handle a variety of plastic materials.

Depending on the material to be pelletized, the diameter of the screw inside the pelletizing machine, the distance between the screw and the barrel wall, and the length of the screw are different. Therefore, one plastic pelletizer machine cannot process multiple materials at the same time.
