Recently, the sales and technical team from Kitech Machinery conducted an in-depth follow-up visit to a customer's factory in Argentina. Walking into the workshop, the familiar KCP120+150 double stage pelletizing machine was running smoothly. This plastic pelletizing equipment was purchased by the customer from Kitech back in 2022. It was gratifying to see that after three years of continuous operation, the entire production line still maintained excellent performance, producing pellets of consistently stable quality.
"This production line has completely exceeded our expectations," the customer stated. "For three years, the equipment has had almost zero downtime, with very low maintenance costs. The uniformity and purity of the output pellets have always remained high-quality, giving our products a competitive edge in the market and generating considerable profits."
Deep Collaboration, Creating Value Together
This successful partnership began in 2022 when the customer was searching for pelletizing equipment that could meet their high-standard production needs. After extensive research and comparisons, they were ultimately convinced by Kitech's professional technical solutions and comprehensive after-sales service system.
"Choosing Kitech was the right decision for us," said the customer's General Manager. "From equipment installation and commissioning to operator training, and even regular remote technical support, the Kitech team has consistently maintained a professional and efficient service level. This accompanying partnership throughout the whole process makes us feel deeply assured."
KCP120+150 Pelletizer: A Comprehensive Solution
The KCP series twin-stage plastic pelletizing machine integrates pre-cutting, compaction, plasticizing, and pelletizing functions, providing an efficient and reliable complete solution for the plastic recycling. A standout advantage of this equipment is its wide material adaptability. It can process various materials including soft plastic films, long filaments, plastic bags, woven bags, and fabrics, covering raw materials such as PE, LDPE, HDPE, LLDPE, PP, BOPP, ABS, EPS, XPS, and PS.
1. Dust Removal System
The pelletizer system can be equipped with a de-dust unit. This system efficiently captures and removes dust particles generated during processes like crushing and mixing, significantly purifying the workshop air. This not only creates a healthier and safer working environment for personnel but also effectively prevents potential adverse effects of dust on equipment operation and the quality of the final pellets.
2. Intelligent Feeding System
Equipped with a conveyor belt automatic feeding device, it allows precise adjustment of feed speed via a frequency converter. A metal detector can be optionally added to effectively filter out metal impurities, providing comprehensive protection for downstream equipment.
3. Cutting and Compactor System
Utilizes frequency converters and servo motors for precise material feeding. The system integrates pre-heating, mixing, semi-plasticizing, and pre-drying functions. Combined with precise temperature control technology, it effectively prevents raw material degradation and ensures consistent input material quality.
4. Efficient Double-Stage Extruder
Features specially designed high-efficiency barrels and screws, providing superior plasticizing of plastic waste and higher throughput. The unique double-stage, single-screw extruder design, involving two extrusion, filtration, and degassing steps, significantly enhances the quality of the plastic pellets.
5. Innovative Self-Cleaning Screen Changer
The auto laser Filter, equipped with six scraper blades, automatically removes impurities during operation, thoroughly solving the pain point of frequent downtime for screen changes associated with traditional manual screen changers. The core laser screen, made from 1.5mm chrome-molybdenum steel, offers excellent wear resistance, resulting in a significantly extended service life. Advanced laser technology achieves filtration precision between 80-800 microns.
6. Piston Type Filter System
Kitech's innovative piston type filter design provides a larger filtration area. It efficiently captures fine particles and contaminants, making it particularly suitable for high-flow, continuous production operations. This reduces the frequency of screen changes and boosts production efficiency.
7. Efficient Pelletizing System
Kitech employs a European-style water ring granulator. The cutting speed is adjusted in real-time based on melt pressure and frequency converter, ensuring uniform pellet size without agglomeration, with pellet size tolerance controlled within 0.3mm.
8. Vibration Drying System
Combining the advantages of a vibration dryer and a horizontal centrifugal dryer, it produces excellently dried plastic pellets through high-speed centrifugal vibration. The water tank is equipped with a heat exchanger, enabling the recycling of cooling water, which is energy-saving and environmentally friendly.
9. Intelligent PLC Control System
The entire pelletizing line is managed by a smart PLC control system, utilizing components from globally renowned brands like Siemens, Schneider, and ABB. It enables one-button start-stop operation for the whole system. The user-friendly interface is simple and intuitive, significantly reducing the learning curve for operators.
