A plastic granulator is a machine used for size reduction, an essential step in plastic recycling. Plastic granulators have the ability to quickly break down plastic products such as plastic pallets, pipes, roof sheets and films into small, uniform pieces call " regrind" or "flakes", in some casem this may be the only step required before it ca be reused in manufacturing new plastic produces. For the most part, howeverm recycling of plastic scrap requires much more resources in sorting and separation, size reduction, washing and pelletizing.
In a plastic granulator, cutting knives are mounted on an open rotor spun to high speeds by electric motor, this rotor is encased in a cutting chamber where stationary knives are mounted. As the plastic scrap entres this cutting chmaber, the rotating knives come into contact with the stationary knives cutting the plastic into little pieces. A large screen with many holes is places at the bottom. The plastic will continue to mix and be cut by the knives until it is small enough to fail through this screen. Hence, by adjusting the size of the holes, one can control the size of the cut shreds.
