A waste plastic crusher is a piece of independent equipment in the plastic recycling line. The belt conveyor will send the raw materials into the crusher, such as PP PE film, bags, barrels, etc. Then, the waste plastic crushing machine will cut the flakes into pieces, which is an important step in the PP PE flake recycling line.

Features of waste plastic crusher

The waste plastic crushing machine is used for crushing the PP PE material to small chips, it has the characteristics of high efficiency, low noise, and no slag material. At the same time, wet pulverization not only enhance the water-cleaning effect of plastic chips but also reduce the friction heat due to the cooling effect of water, prolonging the service life of the blade, low maintenance cost, long service life, therefore, so this kind of waste plastic crusher has received unanimous praise from customers.

Plastic crusher machine application

The crusher for plastic waste is used to crush various plastics. The PP PE plastic shredding machine can crush a variety of soft and hard plastics, such as plastic tubes, plastic rods, plastic films, plastic toys, waste rubber products, and so on. Our plastic shredder uses alloy steel blades, which have high hardness and a long use time.

Working principle of waste plastic crusher

The waste plastic crusher drives the movable cutter head to rotate at high speed through the motor. In the process of high-speed rotation of the moving knife and the fixed knife, a relative movement trend is formed. The plastic crusher machine uses the gap formed between the movable knife and the fixed knife to create a cut for the plastic crushing and shearing, so as to smash the large pieces of scrap plastic. The crushed plastic is filtered and output by the screen to filter the plastic particle size. In addition, if your raw materials are soft plastics like plastic films and bags, it’s better to add a fan on the plastic crusher to avoid clogging.
