Plastic pelletizing is a system and technology in which plastic scraps are recycled back into a reusable raw material. The melt-filtrated strands are cooled briefly and cut into pellets. Plastic manufacturers or processors can then reuse it for a variety of applications. Plastic Pelletizing Machine for recycling plays a crucial role to recycle and reuse plastic wastes. More and more manufacturers are looking for ways to reduce waste and recycling materials in their processes. To help you understand your options and which kind might be the best fit for your plastic pelletizing recycling processes, our experienced team integrates a professional and referable list of " 3 Basic Guides to Pelletizing Machines for Plastic Recycling."
Pelletizers are essential parts in the recycling industry. Three major cutting types of plastic recycling pelletizing systems and technologies are available. The main differences are summarized as below.
Hot Die Face Pelletizing Recycling | Strand Pelletizing Recycling | Automatic Strand Pelletizing Recycling | ||
Water-Ring Pelletizing Recycyling | Underwater Pelletizing Recycling | |||
Automation | Big Scope | Big Scope | Little Scope | Little Scope |
Footprint | Smaller | Smaller | Larger | Larger |
Investment Cost | Higher | Higher | Lower | Middle |
Pellet Shape | Round & Flat | Spherical | Cylinderical | Cylinderical |
Pellet Dusting | Less | Less | More | More |
Pellet Size | Improved (vs. Strand) | Most Consistent | Less Consistent | More |
The main parts of the plastic waste pelletizing machine are conveyor belt, cutter, compactor, shredder, extruder, pelletizer, cooling system, drying system and silo tank. With different internal screws systems, the machines can handle a variety of materials.
The common feeding types include hopper feeding and side feeding.
A feeding hopper feeds materials directly into the extruder without preheating. Harder plastic scraps or rigid regrind such as HDPE bottles are suitable to be recycled by hopper feeding system. Soft plastic materials such as crushed and washed PE films are also processable, which makes the hopper feeding recycling pelletizer a flexible solution.
A side feeding is a stable and continuous measure to feed materials. It allows stable extruder feeding even when the bulk density varies. So the overloading and underloading are avoided, which assures the maximum efficiency.
A compacting and pelletizing system combines the function of cutter, crushing, compacting, plasticization and pelletizing in one step. It is an efficient solution for plastic film, HDPE bags, plastic raffia, zipper, non woven bags and foaming materials repelletizing.

GENIUS has been earning its customers trust with successful projects around the world for more than 40 years. So far, the company has already achieved more than 2,000 plastic recycling pelletizing machine projects in more than 50 countries.
Recently a Peruvian customer who started in the recycling business for the first time acquired a recycling pelletizing line of GENIUS. However, due to the pandemic the engineers were not able to travel abroad for the installation. That is a huge pressure for the customer to install a recycling machine that he acquired for the first time. The GENIUS team has supported the customer through the video conference during the installation. The customer followed the instructions and installed the whole machine by himself.
The customer was originally using Japanese recycling machines. The customer bought a squeeze dryer from GENIUS three years ago, and was impressed with the quality of the machine. Then in the beginning of 2021 he bought a set of recycling lines from GENIUS. After operating and making sure about the efficiency of the line, he contacted GENIUS and already ordered another set of the same recycling line. In recent years, repeat orders account for much of our business and repeat customers spend more on each purchase, above is somehow like the one of examples Word-of-Mouth Marketing.
