[Suzhou, Zhangjiagang] – Kitech Machinery has announced the successful factory test of its independently developed KCP100+120 two-stage pelletizing machine. The trial, which rigorously simulated real production conditions, involved continuous processing of both white HDPE and black LDPE materials. The resulting pellets were high-quality, free from bubbles and black spots, and pure enough to be directly used in downstream high-end product manufacturing, maximizing value for customers.
A key highlight of the test was the line's exceptional adaptability to a wide range of materials. The KCP100+120 demonstrated robust plasticizing capability and process stability when handling HDPE, LDPE, and various soft plastic films. Its double-stage single-screw extruder is specifically designed to process challenging materials, including those with heavy print ink, high moisture content, poor fluidity, temperature sensitivity, and significant impurity levels.
Technical Core: Kitech's Self-Cleaning Laser Filter
The system's superior performance is driven by its core component: the proprietary self-cleaning laser filter. This technology represents a significant breakthrough over traditional filters.
Reduces Labor Costs: It eliminates downtime for manual screen changes. Six high-efficiency scrapers automatically clean the filter screen, significantly cutting labor costs and ensuring continuous, uninterrupted production for higher efficiency.
Exceptional Filtration Precision: The laser-etched screen contains thousands of precision micro-holes, providing filtration precision from 80 to 800 microns for highly effective impurity removal.
Extended Service Life: The core laser screen is manufactured from high-strength chrome-molybdenum steel. Its thickened 1.5mm design offers superior wear resistance and toughness, ensuring a dramatically longer lifespan.
Kitech Machinery: System Component Overview
1. Automatic Feeding System
Uniform Feeding: Comprising a belt conveyor and metal detector, this system uses a variable frequency drive to ensure a steady and consistent material feed rate.
Equipment Protection: The metal detector identifies and guards against metallic contaminants, protecting downstream equipment from damage.
2. De-dust Unit
In the pelletizing process, operations like crushing, mixing, and extruding generate significant dust. Our high-efficiency dust collector is vital for capturing these particles at the source, ensuring a cleaner and safer production environment. This not only protects equipment from abrasive wear, extending its service life, but also safeguards product quality by preventing surface contamination.
3. Cutter Compactor System
Multifunctional Design: This unit integrates pre-heating, mixing, semi-plasticizing, and pre-drying functions, optimally preparing material for the extruder.
Precise Temperature Control: Equipped with water-cooling pipes, fans, and spray devices, it maintains precise temperature control to prevent overheating and ensure consistent material quality.
4. Double-Stage Screw Extruder
Superior Plasticizing: High-efficiency barrels and screws deliver excellent plasticizing effect, resulting in high pellet output and quality.
Double-Unit Advantage: The two single-screw extruders are ideally suited for processing materials with heavy ink, high moisture content, and temperature sensitivity.
5. High-Efficiency Filtration System
The combination of the laser filter and the piston filter effectively removes the majority of impurities from the plastic raw material.
Auto Laser Filter Screen Change: Provides automatic, continuous filtration without manual intervention, boosting productivity and saving labor.
Piston Screen Change: Features a double-piston design for a large filtration area, effectively removing contaminants and minimizing screen-change frequency in continuous operation.
6. PLC Control System
Premium Components: The system incorporates components from renowned brands such as Siemens, Schneider, and ABB, ensuring reliable quality and performance.
User-Friendly Functions: It includes one-touch start/stop, recipe memory, and safety interlock features, simplifying operation and reducing the learning curve for personnel.
7. Water Ring Pelletizer
High-Quality Blades: Kitech employs premium D2 steel blades, known for their excellent wear resistance and long service life.
Uniform Pellets: an European-designed cutting head automatically adjusts speed based on melt pressure, guaranteeing consistent and uniform pellet size. It is very suitable for plastic pellets making.
8. Pellets Drying System
Effective Drying: A combination of vibratory and horizontal centrifugal drying ensures optimal results, achieving a final moisture content below 3%.
Water Conservation: An integrated heat exchanger cools process water for closed-loop recycling, significantly reducing water consumption.
9. Silo System
Storage and Drying: Effectively stores and maintains the dryness of pellets, preventing moisture absorption that could affect secondary processing.
Optional Weighing System: a weighing system can be added to monitor production output in real time.
