Machinery Co., Ltd. has always been at the forefront of plastic recycling technology manufacturing. We focus on developing advanced plastic pellets making machine, transforming plastic waste into high-quality raw materials and building a sustainable closed-loop system. Our flagship product-the KCP series pelletizing machine, fully embodies our commitment to innovation, efficiency, and superior pellet quality.
I. Superior Performance: Turning Plastic Waste into Treasure
Recently, the Kitech KCP120 system successfully processed post-consumer PE drip irrigation tape after rigorous testing. The on-site test results satisfied the customer: the produced granules had uniform color, a smooth and glossy surface, were completely bubble-free, and exhibited excellent thermal stability. These high-quality recycled granules can be directly used in demanding secondary processing applications such as blow molding, injection molding, blown film, and pipe extrusion, helping customers create a perfect high-value-added production and recycling cycle.
II. Streamlined and Efficient Process Flow
The KCP120 single stage pelletizing machine integrates the entire recycled pelleting process into a single automated production line: this integrated process minimizes manual labor, reduces energy consumption, and ensures stable output, earning consistent praise from customers and fostering deep collaborations with global clients.

III. KCP Series Component Analysis
1. De-dust Unit:
Its main function is dust collection. During the pelletizing process, the crushing, mixing, and extrusion of PE drip irrigation tape generate a large amount of dust. Dust collectors, can quickly capture and collect these dust particles, preventing them from spreading into the production environment. Dust collectors ensure that products are protected from dust contamination, thereby improving overall product quality and market competitiveness.
2. Automated Feeding System:
A rubber belt conveyor ensures a stable material supply. Feeding speed is precisely adjustable via a variable frequency drive (VFD). An optional integrated metal detector removes ferrous contaminants, protecting downstream components.
3. Cutting and Compacting System:
This core pretreatment unit, controlled by a VFD and servo motor, precisely adjusts the feed rate to ensure stable plastic material delivery to the extruder. It integrates multiple functions, cutting, mixing, semi-plasticizing, and pre-drying. An advanced thermal management system integrates a water-cooling circuit, fan, and spray cooling system to maintain precise temperature control, prevent material degradation, and ensure consistent material properties.
4. Single-Screw Extruder:
The screw and barrel are the most important components of an extruder, directly affecting its application range and productivity. They are made of high-strength, corrosion-resistant alloy steel. The barrel works in conjunction with the screw to achieve mixing, softening, melting, plasticizing, degassing, and extrusion of plastics.
5. Double Vacuum Degassing System:
Plastic raw materials or additives may carry moisture, volatiles, and ink residues. These impurities can generate bubbles at high temperatures, affecting granule quality and performance. Kitech optimized double vacuum degassing system effectively removes these volatile components, not only reducing bubbles in plastic pellets but also improving the mechanical properties and appearance of the granules.
6. High-Flow Piston Type Screen Changer:
Utilizing innovative double-channel, double-filter structure, this device features a reasonable design and simple operation, allowing for filter replacement without stopping the machine. The piston-type screen changer provides a larger effective filtration area, capturing fine impurities and is ideal for high-flow continuous production operations, improving production efficiency. It also possesses excellent sealing properties, effectively preventing polymer leakage and extending service life.
7. European-style water-ring pelletizing:
Employs D2 wear-resistant alloy cutters, significantly extending their service life. Cutting speed is adjustable via a variable frequency drive (VFD) and automatically adjusted based on melt pressure feedback from the PLC control system, effectively preventing pellet adhesion and resulting in uniformly shaped and sized plastic pellets.
8. Integrated Vibration Drying System:
Combines horizontal drying with a vibration drying unit. Horizontal drying combined with vibration drying achieves a final plastic pellet moisture content of 3-5%. The integrated water tank is equipped with a heat exchanger for efficient cooling water recycling, reducing operating costs.
9. Intelligent PLC Control System:
A user-friendly control panel built with high-quality components from Siemens, Schneider Electric, or ABB, providing one-button start/stop, recipe memory, and automatic safety shutdown maintenance functions. The intuitive Human-Machine Interface (HMI) reduces learning costs, ensuring our international customers can quickly learn to operate the system.
