EPS foam is widely used in packaging and construction due to its lightweight and insulating properties, but it is extremely difficult to recycle. The foam cold melting machines (also known as cold press densifiers) are favored because they require no heat, are compact, and have a high compression ratio. It is odorless, uses less energy, and is easier to maintain, making it ideal for large recycling centers and a wide range of foam materials.

Core advantages of foam cold melting machine

  1. No heating, eliminating odor and smoke: no heating in the cold melting process, cleaner and safer operating environment.
  2. high efficiency compression ratio: the standard model can realize 30:1-50:1 compression ratio, which significantly reduces the volume of foam and is easy for transportation and stacking.
  3. Low-energy design: the whole machine integrates shredding, compression and discharging system, PLC automatic control, less power consumption, saving electricity cost.
  4. Compact structure, small footprint: modularized all-in-one design, suitable for space-limited recycling plant or workshop installation.
  5. Simple maintenance, durable and reliable: hydraulic system and wear-resistant alloy screw assembly, greatly extending the service life and reducing maintenance downtime.

Economic and environmental values

  1. The single foam cold melting machine handles 200-500kg of foam per hour, equivalent to the capacity of 15 workers.
  2. The high compression ratio reduces the volume of foam, reduces the number of transportation, and saves up to 70% of storage space.
  3. It can not only deal with EPS, but also be compatible with EPE, EPP, and other plastic foams, realizing multi-purpose use of a single machine.
  4. No heat treatment emission, the compressed foam block can be directly recycled or transported to the granulation plant, help sustainable development.
