Inan complete PET bottle recycling line

In order for PET bottles to be recycled into PET flakes that in turn can be turned into new products including bottles, the used PET bottles goes through various processes, below an overview of all machinery/steps included in Inan’s offers a complete solution for fully recycling PET bottles. In addition to the standard line, it is possible to tailor the line to meet specific needs. All of the machines can also be purchased individually.

Feeding and Transfer Conveyors: Used for the transportation of plastic along the entire production line from the raw material input to the final output of the machines.

Pre-Washing Unit: Designed to remove dirt such as sand and soil from the surface of the PET bottles, and to remove the cap and label. At the same time, machines such as crushing, hot washing, and friction washing machines in the recycling line come to the forefront with the function of increasing the pet burr on a capacity basis.

Bale Opener: Separating/opening the compressed bales of the pet bottles.

Bunker: These are the reservoirs/buffers used to stock the materials. They control the flow and prevent clogging of the entire line.

Friction Washing Unit: Thanks to its advanced technology, rotors and rotor blades, the horizontal centrifuge washes the dirty materials with water under high speed. The friction created in this way, provides a high level of deep cleaning.

Flotation Immersion Tank Unit: Carries out separation with efficient density management for materials and a highly effective cleaning process. It functions with the flotation-immersion principle.

Vertical Centrifuge Squeezing Unit: Reduces the moisture rate of the materials and removes water from plastic flakes under high speed.

Drying Unit: Ensures that the moisture is reduced and evaporated in the hot air stream.

Label and Dust Separation Unit: Separates labels and dust in the dried pet particles via air pressure.

Double Station Big Bag Filling Unit: A unit that holds 2 big bags that are filled with finished product; clean PET flakes.
