WHAT IS A PLASTIC GRANULATOR

A Plastic Granulator is a machine used for breaking down plastic products for Recycling. 

These machines come in a variety of types for industries and workshops and the various 

sizes of plastic products. Most often, granulators will deal with consumer plastics like 

polyethylene and polypropylene as they are much easier to granulate than tougher 

plastics like ABS, Nylon, or PC..

In the process, plastics are separated and washed to remove any contaminants. 

Once the plastic is fed into the granulator, a series of cutting knives within the rotor

 is powered by an electric motor to break the plastic into smaller pieces. The processed 

content is then supplied to companies who manufacture plastic products.
