In the PET bottle washing recycling line, the role of sink float plastic separation is crucial and it is an indispensable machine. In this paper, we will take a closer look at the working principle of the plastic float sink tank and its applications to deepen our understanding of this technology.
Basic Principle Of Sink Float Plastic Separation
浮沉式塑料分离以水为介质,利用塑料之间的密度差来实现分离。具体来说,该设备主要用于将PET瓶片与PP、PE瓶盖或标签分离。当PET瓶片进入沉浮分离槽时,由于PET塑料比水密度大,会沉到槽底,而PP、PE则会浮在水面上,从而实现塑料的有效分离。


Work Steps In Detail
- Plastic drop-off: Waste plastic enters the sink float plastic separation through a specific channel and begins the separation process.
- 密度分离:在有水的情况下,PET塑料沉到水槽底部,而PP和PE浮到表面,形成明显的分层。
- 输送机构:为了进一步加工PET塑料,设计了底部带有螺杆的输送机构,将PET瓶片向前输送以进行后续加工步骤。
Applications and Advantages
The sink float plastic separation can be used not only for recycling PET but also for a wide range of other plastics and impurities separation processes. Its application scope covers many aspects of the plastics recycling field, providing a feasible solution for the efficient treatment of waste plastics.
