Frictional washing machine or plastic bottle washing machine is a water flow high-speed washer for highly contaminated or stubbornly soiled mixed plastics, such as PET flakes. Ideally, the frictional washing machine is used as a rinsing step in the plastics recycling process after the thermal washer.
Introduction of frictional washing machine
The frictional washing machine is an excellent cold washer system for the thorough cleaning of PET flakes. By friction, the effect of cleaning plastic flakes is achieved. In the case of PET bottle recycling plant, the plastic friction washer uses cold water to further scrub the dirt that is loosened directly after the hot washing process.
Working process of frictional washing machine
The main components of the frictional washing machine are the large rotor with multiple rows of paddles, the dewatering screen, and the water injection and cleaning manifold. The frictional washing machine is stacked on an inclined frame.
The rapidly rotating shaft and paddles convey the material upwards and against the screen, just as a washing machine works. Dirt and grease are then discharged from the system and sprayed away by the water nozzles. Dirty water and contaminants are then discharged from the bottom of the machine. The cleaned material remains at the top of the plastic friction washer.
Application of plastic bottle washing machine
Cleans highly contaminated material or large plastic flakes or films from primary shredders or crushers. It excels at cleaning agricultural films, rigid plastics, and PET, PP PE plastic flakes.
If your plastic flakes are not heavily contaminated, wet wash the flakes immediately to obtain a clean regrind. After the vertical dryer and extraction unit, the regrind is easily collected, saving you labor costs. If you want to save money and increase productivity at the same time, you can contact Shuliy for a customized plastic recycling solution.
Structure of frictional washing machine
The body of the plastic friction washer consists of the mainframe, motor, stand, water inlet, inlet, and outlet. The plastic friction washing machine is mounted on an inclined frame to maximize friction and bring out impurities and contaminants.
The plastic scrubbing cleaner is equipped with water injection nozzle to spray fresh water or circulating water directly on the screen cage to assist the cage cleaning and prevent clogging. The material enters through the inlet and the high-speed rotating screw causes total friction between the material and the flowing water to thoroughly clean the material.
Advantages of plastic friction washer
- Intensive pre-cleaning of plastic debris, high cleaning efficiency
- Rigorous cleaning of plastic materials, thorough dissolution and separation of impurities
- Powerful rinsing by additional washing liquid
- Automatic cleaning by water injection
- Continuous recycling operation due to maintenance-free quality
Why frictional washing machine is important?
Friction machines are commonly used in a variety of applications in industrial processes and recycling operations. Without it, the final product may contain a high level of contaminants. As a result, the final product has a low final value because it contains sand and grease.
Therefore, an efficient plastic friction washing machine is essential if you want to improve the productivity of your plastics recycling plant and the quality of the final product. You can contact us anytime to get the details of plastic washing machine.
