The PE PP plastic film washing line typically consists of several components, including a conveyor belt, plastic shredder machine, friction washer, sink-float separation tank, and centrifugal dryer.

After that, the plastic is passed through a sink-float separation tank, where the heavier contaminants like sand and dirt sink to the bottom and are removed, and the lighter plastic films float on the surface and are collected.
