Purui Polyester Apparel Scrap Granulator

Product Overview

The Purui Polyester Apparel Scrap Granulator is a specialized recycling granulation machine designed for PET waste fabrics and apparel scraps, addressing the growing demand for efficient resource recovery of textile waste. The equipment processes pre-shredded PET fabric fragments using a dedicated high-shear single-screw extrusion process, thoroughly melting flexible fiber waste. Paired with a multi-stage vacuum degassing system, it effectively removes dyes, additives, moisture, and odors. After passing through multi-level filtration dies to remove impurities, the material is extruded, water-cooled, and pelletized. It can also be equipped with a decolorization pretreatment module to enhance the appearance of the recycled material. As a customized product, the machine has no fixed price; it is tailored according to the customer’s production requirements, meeting the needs of enterprises of various scales for textile waste recycling and processing.

Technical Principle

At the core of the Purui Polyester Apparel Scrap Granulator is a specialized high-shear single-screw extrusion process, which handles pre-shredded PET fabric scraps for recycling granulation. Once the fabric fragments enter the barrel, the high-shear screw structure rapidly breaks down the fibrous structure of the material, while the segmented heating system ensures thorough melting and plasticization of the scraps—overcoming the limitations of traditional equipment where fibers are difficult to fully melt and plasticize. The machine features multiple vacuum vent ports that continuously remove volatile components such as dyes, additives, moisture, and odors during the plasticization process, effectively preventing smoke and unpleasant smells during production. The molten material then passes through multi-stage filtration dies to eliminate fiber impurities and thread remnants, before being cut into pellets by a water-cooling system. For customers requiring higher-quality recycled materials, the machine can be fitted with a decolorization pretreatment module to further improve the appearance of the recycled product and expand its application scope.

Core Advantages

1. Strong adaptability to flexible fibers: Designed specifically for flexible fiber waste, the high-shear screw structure combined with segmented heating ensures complete melting and plasticization of fabric scraps, solving the problem of poor plasticization in traditional equipment and guaranteeing stable quality of recycled materials.
2. Thorough multi-stage degassing and impurity removal: Multiple vacuum vent ports efficiently extract dyes, additives, moisture, and odor volatiles from the fabric, significantly reducing smoke and unpleasant smells during production, improving the working environment, and enhancing the purity of the recycled material.
3. Convenient resource utilization integration: Directly compatible with apparel factory scrap recycling processes, transforming fabric offcuts that would otherwise be landfilled or incinerated into reusable recycled pellets, increasing resource utilization and lowering enterprise waste disposal costs.
4. Low maintenance costs: With a simple design and core components sourced from top-tier brands, the machine operates stably and reliably, supporting 24-hour continuous operation. Routine maintenance is straightforward, minimizing downtime and maintenance expenses.
5. Customizable adaptation: As a custom-made product, the equipment configuration can be adjusted according to the customer’s production needs, ranging from 200 kg/h to 1500 kg/h, catering to enterprises of different sizes and ensuring precise alignment between investment and production capacity.

Core Value of the Product

1. Upgrading solid waste resource utilization: Transforming polyester apparel scraps, PET carpet fabrics, old clothing fragments, and other textile wastes that would normally be landfilled or incinerated into high-value recycled pellets, adding over 1,000 yuan per ton of waste and greatly increasing the added value of solid waste recycling.
2. Cost reduction and efficiency gains: Replacing traditional landfill and incineration methods reduces enterprise waste disposal costs, while the recycled pellets can be reused in production, cutting raw material procurement expenses. A single machine can process up to 36 tons of textile waste daily, reducing annual textile waste disposal by over 3,000 tons and helping companies lower operating costs.
3. Supporting environmental compliance: By recycling solid waste, the amount of waste sent to landfills and incinerators decreases, helping enterprises meet waste reduction targets, comply with environmental policies, and enhance their green production image.
4. Quality control: Finished pellets have an impurity content of ≤1.2%, and with the optional decolorization pretreatment module, the appearance can be further improved, ensuring that the recycled material meets downstream production requirements and expanding its application scenarios.

Target Customer Groups

This equipment targets apparel factories, fabric enterprises, textile recycling plants, used-clothing recycling businesses, carpet manufacturers, and similar enterprises. These companies routinely generate large quantities of polyester apparel scraps, carpet waste, curtain fabric offcuts, and other textile solid wastes, facing high disposal costs and low resource utilization rates. This machine helps them achieve efficient waste recycling and resource recovery, creating additional economic benefits.

Application Scenarios

The Purui Polyester Apparel Scrap Granulator is widely used in various textile waste recycling and granulation applications, including processing polyester apparel scraps, PET carpet fabrics, curtain fabrics, Oxford cloth waste, used canvas, garment offcuts, and old clothing fragments.
