The 500–6000 kg/h pet granulator line is designed for efficient size reduction of post-consumer and post-industrial pet materials in plastic recycling plants.It processes materials such as pet bottles,pet containers,thermoformed sheets,production scrap,and other rigid pet waste into uniform flakes suitable for washing,drying,sorting,extrusion,or pelletizing.
With a scalable throughput range and configurable rotor,screen,feeding,and drive systems,the plastic granulator machine can be integrated into small,medium,or large-scale pet recycling lines.
Key Features
High Processing Capacity
- Available processing capacity from 500 to 6000 kg/h
- Suitable for continuous industrial recycling operations
- Capacity can be configured according to material type, moisture content, bulk density, and required flake size
- Appropriate for both standalone operation and complete PET bottle recycling systems
Efficient PET Size Reduction
The plastic recycling granulator machine uses a high-strength cutting system to reduce pet materials into consistently sized flakes.The machine’s rotor and fixed blades work together to provide stable cutting performance while minimizing unnecessary friction and energy loss.
Depending on the application,the output size can be adjusted by selecting a suitable screen aperture.This allows the granulator machine for plastic recycling to produce flakes prepared for downstream washing,separation,drying,or extrusion processes.
Heavy-Duty Construction
- Reinforced steel frame for long-term industrial use
- Robust cutting chamber designed for demanding recycling applications
- Wear-resistant rotor and knife components
- Stable operation under continuous production conditions
- Suitable for integration into automated recycling plants
Adjustable Flake Size
The final pet flake size is controlled by the interchangeable screen installed beneath the rotor.Screens with different openings can be selected to meet the requirements of the plastic recycling process.
The screen design also supports convenient inspection,cleaning,and replacement during routine maintenance.
Energy-Efficient Operation
The plastic granulator is engineered to deliver high throughput with efficient power transmission.The optimized cutting action helps reduce energy consumption compared with inefficient crushing or tearing methods.
Actual power requirements depend on:
- PET material type and thickness
- Contamination level
- Feed size
- Desired output size
- Required production capacity
- Operating conditions

Safety and Maintenance
The pet pellets maker can be equipped with safety features such as emergency stop buttons,access-door interlocks,overload protection,and motor protection.These systems help protect operators and reduce the risk of damage caused by foreign objects or excessive feed loads.
Routine maintenance generally includes:
- Inspecting and sharpening cutting knives
- Checking rotor and bearing condition
- Cleaning the cutting chamber and screen
- Inspecting fasteners and drive components
- Removing contaminants from the feed system
- Checking electrical connections and safety devices
- Replacing worn screens or blades when necessary
Proper feeding,regular maintenance,and correct knife clearance are important for maintaining stable capacity and consistent flake quality.
Actual capacity and power consumption depend on the type and condition of the pet material,feed size,screen opening,moisture content,and required output quality.
Ideal Solution for Industrial PET Recycling
