Plastic Bottle PET Flakes Granulator Machine
PET flakes granulator is also popular as PET flakes crusher or PET flakes grinder. It is a size reduction machine to optimize the PET bottles recycling line. Also, it works with conveyors, washing equipment and drying equipment to achieve final clean PET flakes. During the whole recycling process, this granulator aims to cut PET bottles into PET flakes with good material quality, high production efficiency and throughput.
How does plastic bottle PET flakes granulator work?
PET flakes granulator actually has two sets of cutters which are stationary cutters and rotary cutters. When the electric motor spins rapidly the rotor, the rotary cutters will work together with stationary cutters by creating a scissor cutting motion. Also, a metal screen is installed at the bottom of the cutting chamber to control the final product size. Further, the screen size is customizable per your individual requirement. So the final size of PET flakes can be controlled by these holes of a specific size. Because only small enough PET flakes can fall finally.
How to enhance the efficiency of PET flakes granulator?
Higher motor and bigger models can both contribute to the high throughput. But for the same model and same motor, how to enhance or keep the high efficiency of the granulator? Here are some helpful tips below:
1. Try to keep your cutters sharpened as much as possible.
2. Maintain an ideal gap between stationary cutters and rotary cutters to achieve the ideal cutting result.
3. Schedule a regular and preventative maintenance plan so as to make sure the machine is always in good running status.
4. Prepare backup cutters, screens and belts, etc. for immediate replacement and less downtimes.
5. Clean the screen filter in time.
6. Make sure PET bottles or flakes are not inside the cutting chamber before turning off the machine to avoid possible electric failure.
