Plastic pelletizing involves the mechanical processing of plastics, particularly the conversion of waste plastic or raw plastic materials into pellets. This is achieved through several steps, including cleaning, crushing, melting, and extruding.
What is a plastic pelletizer?
Plastic granulators play a vital role in breaking down waste materials into smaller pieces known as “scrap” or “flakes.” This process is essential for plastics recycling and maybe the sole step needed before these “scraps” can be repurposed into new plastic products. However, recycling waste plastics involves additional processes, including sorting and separation, size reduction, cleaning, and granulation.

Functions & Applications
Our plastic granulators can handle various types of plastics, including uPVC, HDPE, LDPE, PET, and PP, though their effectiveness may vary based on the size of the pelletizer.
They are ideal for processing waste plastic products like plastic films (such as industrial packaging films, agricultural mulch films, and greenhouse films), woven bags, agricultural convenience bags, tubs, buckets, beverage bottles, and a wide range of everyday items.
Additionally, these plastic pelletizing machines can be utilized for recycling and color-mixing granulation of numerous plastics, including PP, PE, PS, ABS, PA, PVC, PC, POM, EVA, LCP, PET, PMMA, and more.
