Description
The Two stage starve feed recycling machine by KGR Engisol is a flagship solution in modern plastic resource recovery, meticulously engineered to process post-industrial and post-consumer waste with exceptional precision. Unlike single-stage systems, our two-stage design provides unparalleled degassing capabilities, ensuring the removal of moisture, volatiles, and printing inks from the polymer melt. This results in high-grade, virgin-like pellets suitable for demanding manufacturing applications. The integrated starve-feed mechanism is a critical technical advantage, allowing for precise throughput regulation independent of the material’s bulk density. This ensures that the screw filling degree is optimized, preventing material degradation and enhancing the overall melt quality. Built with a high-torque, hardened-steel gearbox and a tandem extrusion configuration, this machine is designed for continuous 24/7 operation in high-volume recycling facilities. Its robust construction minimizes mechanical stress, while the advanced PLC-based control interface allows operators to fine-tune process parameters for different polymer types, such as HDPE, LDPE, and PP. By investing in this machine, manufacturers not only optimize their raw material costs but also contribute significantly to a circular economy, turning complex industrial waste into a high-value manufacturing resource that meets rigorous quality standards.
