The machine is not only suitable for PET bottle flakes cleaning, but also can handle other types of plastic materials, with a wide range of applications to meet the needs of different customers.

Role of PET Bottle Flakes Hot Washing Machine

Removal of labels and adhesives: PET bottles are usually labeled and the adhesives used on the labels are difficult to remove completely at room temperature. Hot washing softens and dissolves these adhesives, thus effectively removing label residues and ensuring the purity of bottle flakes.

Remove oil and organic matter: PET bottles may be stained with oil, food residues, and other organic matter during use. These stains are difficult to clean thoroughly at room temperature, while hot washing can thoroughly decompose and remove these impurities through the combined effect of heated water and cleaning agents, improving the cleanliness of bottle flakes.

Sterilization and disinfection: Discarded PET bottles may come into contact with various sources of contamination before recycling. The high temperatures in the hot washing process help to kill bacteria and germs, ensuring that the recycled material is hygienic and safe.

Improvement of recycling quality: PET bottle flakes treated with hot washing have low impurity content and high transparency, which helps to produce high-quality recycled PET products.

Working Principle of PET Flakes Hot Washing Machine

The working principle of the hot washed PET flakes machine is based on the combined action of hot water and mechanical agitation:

  • Hot water cleaning: PET bottle flakes are cleaned in high-temperature hot water, which can effectively soften the dirt and residues and make them easy to remove.
  • Mechanical stirring: the equipment is equipped with a stirring device inside, through mechanical stirring, the PET bottle flakes will be fully contacted with hot water to accelerate the cleaning process.
