The PP Raffia Recycling Process

Crushing & Washing

Waste PP raffia and woven materials are shredded into small, uniform flakes and then undergo a rigorous washing and friction cleaning process to remove dirt, sand, and other contaminants.

Drying & Agglomeration

A centrifugal dewatering machine and thermal drying system reduce moisture content. The material is then fed into a cutter-compactor for simultaneous cutting, mixing, and densification.

Extrusion & Melting

The densified material is fed into a specially designed single-screw extruder. The screw’s geometry ensures gentle melting and homogenization of the PP polymer.

Filtration & Degassing

A high-precision melt filter removes any remaining impurities, while a vacuum degassing system eliminates volatiles and moisture, ensuring bubble-free, high-quality pellets.

Pelletizing

The molten polymer is extruded through a die head and cut into uniform pellets by a water-ring or strand-cooling pelletizing system, chosen based on your specific needs.

Cooling & Storage

The pellets are rapidly cooled, dewatered, and then transported to a storage silo, ready for immediate use in new product manufacturing.

Advantages of Our PP Raffia Pelletizing Line

All-in-One Design

Our system integrates crushing, agglomerating, extruding, and pelletizing into one seamless and efficient line, reducing labor costs and factory space requirements.

High Throughput

Optimized for PP raffia and woven materials, our machines can achieve outputs ranging from 100kg/h to 1000kg/h, depending on the model and material density.

Superior Pellet Quality

The combination of advanced degassing, precise filtration, and uniform cutting produces clean, dense, and consistent pellets suitable for high-end applications.

Energy Efficient

The cutter-compactor preheats and densifies the material, reducing the extruder’s workload and lowering overall energy consumption by up to 20%.

User-Friendly Operation

Equipped with a centralized PLC control system, the entire line can be monitored and operated easily, with automatic temperature and pressure controls.

Durable and Reliable

Key components like the screw and barrel are crafted from nitrided 38CrMoAlA steel for exceptional wear resistance and a long service life.

Turning Recycling Challenges Into Profitable Opportunities

Common Raffia Recycling Challenges

Lightweight, fluffy materials (woven bags, raffia) are difficult to feed consistently into an extruder.
Inconsistent material feeding causes unstable output and poor-quality pellets.
High operational costs from using separate machines for crushing, agglomerating, and extruding.
Residual moisture and printing inks lead to porous, low-value final pellets.
Large factory footprint required for multiple, disconnected machines.

How Our Machine Solves This

The integrated cutter-compactor grabs, cuts, and densifies material for stable, high-speed feeding.
Automated, continuous process ensures a homogenous melt flow and uniform pellet size.
All-in-one design reduces energy consumption, labor costs, and saves valuable floor space.
High-efficiency vacuum degassing removes volatiles and moisture, dramatically improving pellet quality.
A compact, streamlined solution that optimizes your entire workflow from waste to pellet.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the main advantage of the cutter-compactor design?

The cutter-compactor (or agglomerator) is the heart of the system. It pre-cuts, dries, and densifies the light, fluffy PP raffia material, allowing it to be fed consistently into the extruder. This eliminates the need for a separate agglomerator and force-feeder, saving space and energy.

Can this machine handle printed or wet materials?

Yes. The system is designed to handle materials with printing. The vacuum degassing system is highly effective at removing the volatiles from inks. For wet materials, our integrated washing and dewatering line is recommended to ensure the moisture content is below 5% before entering the pelletizer for optimal results.

What is the difference between water-ring and strand-cooling pelletizing?

Water-ring pelletizing (hot-face cutting) is ideal for PP materials. It cuts the pellets at the die head and immediately cools them with water, resulting in uniform, spherical pellets. Strand-cooling is better for more sensitive materials, where strands of plastic are cooled in a water bath before being cut. We typically recommend water-ring for PP raffia applications.

What is the required maintenance for the pelletizing line?

Routine maintenance includes checking the sharpness of the cutter-compactor blades, inspecting the extruder screw and barrel for wear, changing the gearbox oil periodically, and ensuring the melt filter is clean. We provide a detailed maintenance schedule with every machine.

Do you provide installation and training?

Yes, we offer complete installation and commissioning services. Our engineers will set up the machine at your facility, conduct trial runs with your material, and provide comprehensive training for your operators on how to run and maintain the equipment efficiently.

How do I choose the right model for my needs?

The right model depends on your target output (kg/h), the type and condition of your raw material (e.g., level of contamination, moisture content), and your factory’s available space and power. Contact our sales team with these details, and we will provide a tailored recommendation.

What Our Customers Say

“The all-in-one design is a game-changer. We replaced three separate machines with this single line. Our output has doubled, and our energy costs are down by 30%. The cutter-compactor handles the fluffy woven bags perfectly.”
