PVC Pipe Grinding Machine

The PVC Pipe Grinding Machine, often referred to as a granulator or pulverizer, is crucial equipment in the plastic recycling industry, designed to process polyvinyl chloride waste like pipes, profiles, and scrap into reusable granules or fine powder. These machines boast a robust construction, typically utilizing mild steel or hardened alloy steel for the body and high-carbon or German-grade alloy steel for the rotating/fixed blades or discs, ensuring longevity and efficient material reduction. Key specifications vary significantly, with motor power ranging from 3 HP up to 125 HP or more, impacting the machine's capacity, small models can process 50 kg/hr, while industrial-scale units can achieve over 800 kg/hr. Grinders use a rotor-blade system to crush the material into flakes (granulators), whereas pulverizers use a high-speed disc mill to produce fine powder for applications like new pipe manufacturing. Features like V-cut rotor design, dust control systems, cooling provisions for the mill and bearings, and different levels of automation (manual, semi-automatic, or fully automatic) are common, all aimed at high performance, low maintenance, and energy-efficient operation for cost-effective plastic recycling.
