Features of PET bottle bale breaker

  • Efficient opening. The plastic bale opener adopts advanced breaking technology to efficiently and quickly open tightly baled PET bottles.
    • When the line handles plastic bottles of 1 ton or more, this machine is used to handle them.
  • Automatic operation. This equipment has an automated control system.
    • Only put the PET bottle bales into the inlet. The machine will automatically monitor and control the unbaling process.
    • Also, it reduces manual intervention and improves operational efficiency.
  • Safe and reliable. PET bottle bale breaker machine design takes the safety protection device. This ensures that the operation process can protect the operator’s safety.
  • Lower labor costs. The automatic breaking feature reduces the burden of manual opening and lowers labor costs. It helps to improve the overall economic efficiency of the PET bottle recycling line.

How to open PET bottle bales?

The bale opener is a series of automated steps to unravel the baled plastic bottles and reduce them to a loose state. The specific workflow includes loading→breaking→separating→conveying→checking.

Feeding

The bundled plastic bottles are fed into the feed port of the plastic bale breaker by a conveyor belt or forklift. The feed port is designed to be spacious and can accommodate plastic bottles of different sizes.

Bale breaking

When the PET bottle bales enter the bale opener, they first pass through the breaking device.

The breaking device usually consists of multiple rotating blades or spikes, which tear the plastic bottles apart during rotation.

Separating

The torn plastic bottles and strapping tape enter the separation system together.

  • The separation system separates the plastic bottles from the strapping tape through a vibrating screen and a wind separator.
  • The strapping tape is automatically removed, while the loose plastic bottles continue to be conveyed forward.

Conveying

The separated plastic bottles are conveyed to the next processing link(label removal) through a conveyor belt.

According to actual needs, the speed and inclination of the conveyor belt can be adjusted. This can ensure the smooth conveying of the plastic bottles.

Checking

During the conveying process, you can check the loose plastic bottles to ensure that the unbaling effect is good.

If there are residual strapping or baled bottles, you can adjust and handle them manually.

Why use plastic bale breaker machine in PET bottle recycling?

We use the plastic bale opener in the PET bottle washing plant, because it has the following functions:

  • Facilitate subsequent processing: break the plastic bottle bricks to restore them to a loose state for subsequent processing.
  • Continuous operation: using this machine can achieve an automatic and continuous opening process, reducing manual operations.
  • Improve efficiency: the loose plastic bottles after breaking are easier to transport and handle, improving the overall efficiency of the line.
  • Equipment protection: prevent large pieces of plastic bottles from directly entering subsequent equipment, reducing equipment wear and extending equipment service life.
