Indian Customer Ordered LDPE Film Recycling Machine for 1T/H Plastic Film Processing
For many recycling companies, washing soft plastic film efficiently is one of the biggest challenges in the recycling process. Film materials are lightweight, often heavily contaminated, and difficult to dry completely. Because of this, selecting a set of suitable LDPE film recycling machines becomes especially important for stable, long-term production.
Recently, EFFICIENT completed a customized recycling project for an Indian customer specializing in waste plastic film processing. The customer required a complete solution capable of handling approximately 1000kg of LDPE and PE film waste per hour.
Unlike customers purchasing equipment for the first time, this company already had extensive recycling industry experience and clear technical expectations. Their team carefully evaluated machine structure, washing stages, drying performance, and future production scalability before making the final decision.
From Initial Inquiry to Factory Visit
The customer first contacted EFFICIENT regarding plastic film recycling equipment for their India factory. Their recycling business includes both shredding and washing operations, with future plans to expand pellet production capacity as well.
During early discussions, the customer shared several important processing concerns:
- Film contamination level
- Final moisture requirements
- Stable continuous operation
- Equipment maintenance
- Spare parts supply
- Future pelletizing compatibility
Because the customer had previously imported recycling machinery, they paid close attention to technical details instead of only comparing prices.
Later, the customer arranged a factory visit in China to inspect different recycling equipment suppliers. During the visit to EFFICIENT, they spent considerable time discussing machine configurations, processing flow, and production efficiency with our engineering team.
Why the Customer Focused on the Drying System
In soft plastic recycling projects, many customers focus heavily on crushers and washing tanks at the beginning. However, experienced recyclers often understand that drying performance directly affects downstream pelletizing stability.
This customer specifically discussed:
- Moisture control after washing
- Drying efficiency for soft film flakes
- Energy consumption
- Long-term operating costs
After understanding the customer’s actual pelletizing plans, EFFICIENT engineers optimized the drying section of the complete LDPE film recycling machine system.
The final solution is combined:
- Horizontal mechanical dewatering
- Hot air pipe drying
- Multi-stage washing and rinsing
This design helped improve drying efficiency while keeping the system practical for daily industrial operation.
Customized Recycling Solution for Soft Plastic Film
The complete LDPE film recycling machine project included several major processing sections:
Crushing Section
Heavy-duty crushers were used to process PE and LDPE film waste into smaller flakes suitable for washing and drying.
Washing Section
The washing process combined friction cleaning, hot washing, and rinsing stages to remove mud, oil stains, labels, and light impurities from the plastic film.
Separation Section
Floating separation tanks helped further improve material cleanliness and remove remaining contaminants.
Drying Section
The final drying system reduced moisture levels and prepared the material for future pelletizing applications.
This customized design allowed the customer to balance cleaning quality, production efficiency, and operating costs.
What Impressed the Customer Most
During the project discussion, the customer appreciated several aspects of EFFICIENT’s approach.
Practical Technical Suggestions
Instead of recommending unnecessary configurations, our engineers focused on matching the machine layout to the customer’s actual production goals and raw materials.
Clear Production Planning
The customer carefully reviewed workshop manufacturing conditions, machine details, and electrical systems during the factory inspection. Organized production management increased confidence in project execution.
Continuous Communication
The project involved multiple rounds of technical discussions after the factory visit. EFFICIENT, continuously updated machine details and answered configuration questions throughout the process.
For industrial recycling projects, long-term communication efficiency is often just as important as the machine itself.
Main Equipment Included in the Project
The soft plastic recycling line supplied by EFFICIENT mainly included:
- Plastic film crusher
- Friction washer
- Hot washing tank
- Rinsing and separation tank
- Horizontal dryer
- Pipe drying system
- Conveyor systems
- Electrical control cabinet
The entire LDPE film recycling machine system was designed for stable operation and future expansion.
