Die-face Cutting Pelletizer
Product Overview
The die-face cutting system is engineered to replace traditional strand cutting and water tank cooling, offering an efficient solution for recycling materials with high levels of contamination or moisture—such as agricultural film, printed film, packaging trim, and washed plastic sheets. This all-in-one 3-in-1 system integrates shredding, extrusion, and die-face pelletizing in a compact unit. Equipped with a tandem (mother-baby) extrusion configuration and dual-stage filtration, the system ensures high pellet purity and consistent processing. It supports downstream processes including film blowing, injection molding, and profile extrusion. With a small footprint, simplified workflow, and stable performance, the machine is particularly suitable for mid- to large-scale recycling plants, especially when handling heat-sensitive materials like LDPE, HDPE, LLDPE, and PP.
Key Features
- 3-in-1 Integrated System: Combines shredding, extrusion, and pelletizing in a single unit to reduce floor space, labor demand, and operational complexity.
- Tandem Extrusion Design: Dual extruders (main and sub) enhance material throughput and improve filtration efficiency for stable pellet output.
- Dual Degassing & Filtration Die Head: Effectively removes ink, moisture, and residual impurities from washed or contaminated input materials.
- Automated Die-Face Cutting System: Designed for soft film materials, this cutting system improves pellet uniformity while eliminating the need for water cooling.
- Energy-Saving Inverter Control: Equipped with a variable frequency drive (VFD) to optimize energy consumption and reduce electricity costs.
- Flexible Modular Options: Supports optional modules including vacuum pumps, metal detectors, quick-change screens, and advanced cooling systems.
Application Scope
This system is designed to process and pelletize a variety of thermoplastic materials, including:
- Agricultural films and industrial packaging films
- Printed films and ink-contaminated flexible plastics
- Washed plastic sheets, post-industrial scrap, and trimmed waste
- Thermoplastics such as LDPE, HDPE, LLDPE, PP, and PS
Note: This model is not designed for inline integration with primary extrusion lines but can be connected downstream of washing systems.
