Function mode of a PET-bottle washing line
The following flow chart shows the fundamental layout of a PET-bottle washing line. In due to have more clarity no options are represented.
Following procedures are integrated in our washing lines or can be added additionally:
- Material feeding
- Separation of loose polluted material
- Metal detection
- manual or automatic colour and PVC sorting
- Wet precutting
- Friction-Intensivewashing-unit
- Separation of dissolved polluted material
- Wet separation stage (density separation) and second washing stage
- Rinsing basin
- Mechanical drying unit
- Hot air drying
- Bagging
The advantages of a SIKOPLAST washing line is especially the
Frictionwasher, and the patented wet separation stage with integrated pre-flotation. Due to this we reach a purity above the average - also with highly contaminated input material, for example bottles with a high part of paper labels and this without any additional chemical agents.
