PRODUCT
DESCRIPTION
The Friction Washer by Chenxing Recycling Machinery delivers industrial-grade contaminant removal for plastic flakes (3-40mm), films, and pellets contaminated with sand, grease, or labels. Featuring a 45° slanted drum and high-speed rotor (3500 RPM), this stainless steel washer achieves 98% impurity removal through mechanical friction and centrifugal force – no detergents required. Its dynamic-balanced rotor ensures vibration-free operation, while quick-change screens and snap-open enclosures enable 15-minute maintenance cycles. Compatible with sink-float tanks and granulators, the system’s multi-nozzle spray technology flushes contaminants into sealed drainage, producing FDA-compliant recycled materials. Customize with food-grade screens or electromagnetic starters for inline washing systems. Backed by 20+ years of plastic recycling expertise, Chenxing’s corrosion-resistant washer reduces water usage by 30% vs conventional models, ideal for PET bottle recycling and rigid plastic purification. Achieve <0.5% residue levels with plug-and-play integration into existing production lines.

PRODUCTS DETAILS
FAQ
1. What is the main function of the CFW Series Friction Washer?
The CFW Series Friction Washer is designed to clean and remove contaminants such as dirt, glue, labels, sand, and organic residues from crushed plastic flakes. It is a key component in high-efficiency plastic film and rigid plastic recycling lines.
2. What types of plastic materials can be cleaned using this washer?
It is ideal for cleaning a wide range of plastic flakes including:
-
PE (LDPE, HDPE) film flakes
-
PP woven bags and raffia flakes
-
Rigid plastic flakes (e.g., PP, PET bottles, HDPE containers)
This washer is often used after shredding or crushing and before hot washing or drying steps.
3. How does the friction washing process work?
The CFW washer uses high-speed rotating paddles to agitate the plastic flakes against a fixed screen. This high-friction contact physically scrubs off surface contamination while allowing water to rinse the material through perforated screens.
4. What is the typical output capacity of the friction washer?
Depending on the model and material type, the CFW Series offers output capacities ranging from 500 kg/h to 3000 kg/h. We can recommend the appropriate model based on your specific production needs.
5. Can the friction washer be used independently or only as part of a line?
While it performs best as part of a complete plastic washing system, the CFW washer can also operate as a standalone unit to pre-clean or post-clean specific plastic waste streams in small or mid-sized operations.
