Why Does Waste Plastic Extrusion Machine Emit Smoke During Production?

Has this happened to your waste plastic extrusion machine? That is the phenomenon of smoke in the production process. Plastic recycling pelletizing machine can recycle waste plastics and turn them into recycled plastic pellets, however, this smoke phenomenon will bring inconvenience and risk to the production. In this article, we will discuss the reasons for the smoke in the waste plastic extrusion machine, and give the corresponding solution.

Reasons for smoke from waste plastic extrusion machine

The temperature is too high

During the pelletizing process, the plastic needs to be melted at high temperatures and pelletized through the processing parts of the machine. If the temperature is too high, it may lead to incomplete combustion of waste plastic and produce a lot of smoke.

Plastics contain impurities

Scrap plastics may contain various impurities such as paper and metal. These impurities are difficult to melt during processing, which can cause the waste plastic to accumulate inside the plastic recycling pelletizing machine, which in turn causes the smoke phenomenon.

Equipment failure

Damage or aging of the heating element or other key components inside the waste plastic extrusion machine may also lead to unstable temperature so that the waste plastic can not be melted properly, thus smoke.

Overload operation

Excessive amount of waste plastic is put into the waste plastic extrusion machine at one time, which exceeds its capacity and makes the machine overloaded, resulting in the risk of smoke.

Solution to the smoke of the pelletizing machine plastic

• Cleaning and maintenance: Regularly cleaning the inside of the waste plastic extrusion machine to remove waste plastic buildup and impurities, and ensuring that the ventilation system is unobstructed, will help reduce the occurrence of smoke. In addition, regular maintenance and replacement of key components to keep the equipment in good working condition is also a key measure to solve the smoke problem.
• Control temperature: Strictly control the processing temperature of the pelletizing machine plastic and adjust it according to different plastic types and process requirements. Ensure that the temperature is within the appropriate range to avoid smoke caused by too high a temperature.
• Pre-treatment of plastics: Before the waste plastics enter the granulator, carry out pre-treatment to remove the impurities and other hard-to-melt substances. This can effectively reduce the occurrence of the smoke phenomenon.
• Reasonable control of feeding amount: Put in waste plastics in strict accordance with the rated capacity of the granulator, avoid overload operation, and ensure stable operation of the waste plastic extrusion machine.
