Efficient Crushing of PE and PP Materials

2024-06-28  Page view:

With the increase in plastic waste generated from packaging and post-production, efficient disposal of plastic scrap has become a crucial issue for global environmental protection. For plastic packaging waste, film crushers offer excellent crushing effects for flexible scrap material. The Wensui WSGE film crusher plays a significant role in crushing PE and PP plastics, contributing to more reliable waste management and recycling processes.

Plastic Film Crusher

The working principle of the plastic film crusher is based on the cutting and crushing process. Firstly, the plastic products are fed into the crushing chamber, and through the action of the blade and the rotating mechanism, materials are quickly cut into small pieces. Next, the blades rotate at high speed and tear strongly with the material in the crushing chamber, causing the plastic to gradually turn into smaller pieces. Then the high-speed rotating blade works in conjunction with the fixed blade to quickly shred waste plastic films such as polyethylene (PE) and polypropylene (PP) into reusable pellets. Thanks to the special rotor design to process plastic film, flexible materials are prevented from wrapping around the rotor and jamming.

Unique Crusher Features

The WSGE film crusher has three unique features, as follows:

1. Excellent performance: The unique scissor-shaped turret structure for film crushing enables fast and efficient processing of large quantities of plastic film.

2. Precise crushing: The distance between the rotary and fixed blades is adjustable, according to different material characteristics and requirements to ensure maximum crushing effect.

3. Safety protection: Designed with multiple protection functions. Adding a blower and storage bin are recommended for easy material collection.

Crusher Maintenance

1. The plastic crusher should be placed in a well-ventilated position to ensure that the heat generated by the motor is dissipated.

2. The bearings should be regularly filled with lubricating oil to ensure the lubrication between the bearings.

3. Regularly check the cutter screws, and after 1 hour of use of the new plastic crusher, use the tool to tighten the screws of the moving knife and fix the knife to strengthen the fixability between the blade and the knife holder.

Plastic Application

The Wensui film crusher is optimal to recycle plastic films and sheets including PE and PP sheets, knitted bags and fibers. The increasing concern of governments and businesses around the world about environmental protection and sustainable development is driving the widespread application and demand growth of size reduction equipment, including crushers and shredders. Especially in the field of plastic recycling, the market potential for film crushers is growing continuously.
