PET flakes washing machine is used for cleaning plastic bottles after crushing. The plastic chips washing machine can quickly remove the mud, sand, and oil stains attached to plastic bottles so that the plastic bottle flakes become clean and transparent. A float sink tank for plastic is a necessary machine for a plastic bottle recycling factory.
PET flakes washing machine function
Plastic bottle washing machines have two functions, one is to wash and the other is to separate.
The plastic crusher shreds the water bottles and then the bottle flakes go into the plastic washing machine.
The spiral device at the bottom of the plastic float sink tank continuously advances the feeding material while cleaning the bottle pieces that sink to the bottom of the water by friction.
At the same time, the PET flakes washing machine is equipped with rollers or baffles for effectively separating the bottle caps floating on the water surface.

plastic float sink tank separation principle
PET bottles belong to submerged material, while PP and PE bottle caps belong to floating material. Therefore, when these plastic flakes enter the float sink tank for plastic separation, PET bottle flakes will sink into the water. And PP PE bottle caps will float on the water’s surface. A PET flakes washing machine is to separate bottle caps based on the density of different materials.
