Plastic film materials are often used for packaging, and laminating layers, but the surface of post-consumer films is prone to high levels of dirt, dust, and organic matter (especially in agricultural films). These contaminants complicate the cleaning process because they adhere to the film and require a significant amount of cleaning to achieve the purity levels required for recycling.
Plastic films are thin, flexible and have a low bulk density, which makes them susceptible to tangling during the recycling process, especially in shredders and screw conveyor systems. And conventional drying methods (such as tube dryers or high-speed dewaterers) are not effective in reducing storage space.
In order to solve these problems, boxin has continuously optimized its plastic film recycler systems based on more than 20 years of project experience. The new recycling line not only reduces the moisture content of the film to less than 3%, but also effectively removes impurities from agricultural film and can run for up to 18 hours a day without clogging.
