2 Stages Plastic Recycling Machine (Side Feeding)

Product Overview
The 2-Stage Plastic Recycling Machine (Side Feeding) is engineered to process complex plastic waste streams that are highly contaminated, high in moisture content, or difficult to handle. Featuring a side screw feeder, dual degassing zones, and a tandem (mother-baby) extrusion system, it is especially effective for recycling materials such as agricultural films, printed packaging, and woven sacks.
This system utilizes a strand pelletizing method with water bath cooling and air drying, making it particularly suitable for moisture-sensitive or impurity-laden materials that are not ideal for die-face cutting. A large-capacity buffer hopper enables continuous feeding with minimal operator involvement, ensuring smooth material flow and stable pellet output over extended production runs.
Key Features
- Side Screw Feeding System
Delivers consistent feeding of lightweight, low-bulk-density materials like thin films and foils. - Dual Degassing with Dual Filtration
Effectively removes moisture and ink from printed or wet film scrap, improving pellet purity. - Optional Vacuum Exhaust Module
Enhances venting efficiency for better moisture removal and gas release. - Strand Pelletizing with Water Bath Cooling + Air Drying
Designed for materials that are sensitive to moisture or not suitable for die-face pelletizing. - Customizable Screw & Feeding Configuration
Screw geometry and feeding parameters can be tailored to specific material properties. - High-Capacity Buffer Hopper
Supports longer operation cycles with reduced manual intervention and smoother feeding.
Applications
- Moisture-rich soft films such as LLDPE, HDPE, LDPE, and PP
- Printed packaging films, woven bags, and post-industrial film scrap
- Dusty, ink-contaminated, or unevenly dried materials
- Elastic or blended films unsuitable for die-face pelletizing systems
