Complete Technological Solutions for Mechanical Plastic Recycling

At NUGA RECYTECH, we deliver end-to-end solutions for mechanical plastic recycling, covering every stage from size reduction to material preparation for extrusion. Our advanced systems are designed to handle diverse plastic waste streams with precision and efficiency, ensuring consistently high-quality output.

Comprehensive Process Overview

1. Size Reduction
The recycling process begins with the efficient size reduction of large plastic items. Depending on the type and condition of the material, this stage may include:
• Slow-speed screw shredders for unpacking and pre-crushing contaminated or baled plastics.
• Guillotines for cutting voluminous rolled materials, carpets, and similar bulky items.
• Standard high-performance shredders for general plastic waste.
These machines are engineered for robust performance, ensuring optimal preparation of feedstock for subsequent stages.

2. Multi-Stage Washing
Our washing systems deliver thorough cleaning through multiple stages:
• Pre-Washing: Removes large, heavy contaminants such as stones, metals, and glass.
• Wet Granulation: In wet granulators, material is further shredded while being intensively washed through water addition and friction.
• Intensive Friction Washing: Final cleaning in high-performance friction washers ensures maximum removal of residual contaminants.
• Hot Washing (Optional): For PET and other sensitive materials, we offer hot washing systems to eliminate stubborn impurities such as adhesives and oils.

3. Sorting by Specific Density
The cleaned material is sorted to separate polymers with different densities:
• Flotation Tanks: Efficient separation of polyolefins from heavier plastics.
• Hydrocyclone Systems (Optional): For applications requiring higher precision and throughput.

4. Drying Technology
To prepare materials for extrusion or further processing, our systems include:
• Mechanical Centrifugal Dryers: Rapidly reduce surface moisture.
• Thermal Dryers: Achieve final moisture levels as low as 3%.
• Step Dryers (Optional): For PET and other sensitive polymers requiring gentle yet effective drying.
