Screw Barrel for Plastic Recycling Granulator

Recycled feed is sand, paper, aluminium and unknown fillers suspended in plastic — the fastest way to destroy a standard screw. Our recycling package pairs a bimetallic barrel (2–5 mm alloy lining) with a wear-protected screw and a vented two-stage option for wet or printed feed.

Built for LDPE film washing lines, PP woven-bag granulation and PET flake pelletising. Tell us your feed (washed film, flakes, rigid scrap) and moisture level and we configure the vent and screw compression.

Common Questions

Questions Buyers Ask About This Product

Do I really need bimetallic for recycling?

If the feed is washed film, nitrided can survive; if it is post-consumer or unwashed, no — hard contaminants will cut a nitrided bore in months. The bimetallic lining pays for itself on the first barrel you do not have to replace.

Vented or non-vented?

Vented (two-stage) if your feed carries moisture or inks — it degasses before pelletising and prevents porous pellets. Dry, single-source regrind can run non-vented for higher output.

Can you rebuild our existing recycling line?

Yes — send the extruder brand, screw dimensions and an honest description of the feed. We quote a matching set including the vent configuration.
