Plastic pellet extruder is one of the commonly used equipment in the plastic recycling industry, which is capable of processing waste plastics into granular raw materials for reproduction. However, before and after the use of extruder plastic recycling, some important considerations need our attention.
Precautions Before Using Plastic Pellet Extruder
- Equipment inspection: make sure that the parts of the extruder plastic recycling are intact and undamaged, with no loose or worn places to ensure safe operation.
- Clean work area: Clean the work area to ensure that no debris or obstacles interfere with the proper operation of the equipment.
- Raw material preparation: Prepare the waste plastics to be processed and subject them to preliminary treatment such as crushing and removal of impurities and contaminants.
- Let the plastic pellet extruder run normally for a few minutes to confirm whether it works normally. Then start to add materials slowly, note: there can’t be stones, metals, and other impurities in the added materials.
Precautions After Use of Extruder Plastic Recycling
- Equipment cleaning: clean the granulator plastic recycling in time after use to avoid residues affecting the next production, while prolonging the service life of the equipment.
- Inspection and maintenance: Regularly check the wear and tear of each part of the equipment, and carry out maintenance and replacement in time to ensure the normal operation of the equipment.
- Safety shutdown: At the end of use, turn off the plastic pellet extruder completely and disconnect the power to ensure the safety of the equipment.
Using a plastic pellet extruder is an important part of the plastic recycling industry, but safe and proper operation is critical. Following the precautions before and after use can ensure the safe operation of the extruder plastic recycling, improve production efficiency, and extend the service life of the equipment.
