How Does an Agglomerator Work?

Agglomerators work by tumbling material in a rotating drum in the presence of a binding agent. The binding agent causes the fines to become tacky and allows them to pick up additional fines, forming agglomerates in a process referred to as coalescence.

What is plastic agglomerator machine?

Agglomeration machines are used for physically transform loose plastic material into chips suitable to be fed the hopper of an extruder. Agglomerator is a cylinder with five to nine stationary and two rotating blades at the bottom which create friction and heat.

What is plastic agglomeration?

During the production and processing of thermoplastics, production waste occurs. The prerequisite for reutilization is the production of clean, free-flowing agglomerates with high bulk density whose quality has not been lowered by the process. ...
