POLYSTAR- Advanced Plastic Recycling Machine for BOPP Highly Printed Waste material
POLYSTAR's high efficiency, one-step plastic recycling machine BOPP Flex is designed specifically for the reprocessing of BOPP post-industrial film waste, printed, non-printed and heavily-printed.

The newly-designed cutter compactor has been specially modified and strengthened for BOPP film which is more difficult to cut and compact comparing to PE film, due to its high tensile strength through the stretching in both the direction of the cast machine.




Degassing:

High performance degassing is one of the most important elements in BOPP film recycling to ensure that the pellets are not fluffy or contain holes in the middle.

Polystar’s double-vented degassing and the re-positioning of the filtration system to the front of the degassing system on the BOPP Flex make sure that degassing is done ideally and optimally on printed BOPP film. This guarantees high quality pellets which are solid in the middle and uniform in size.

Easy pelletizing:

Polystar’s specially designed die-face pelletizing system prevents water from splashing back onto the die head and blocking the holes on the die surface (which typically prevents material from coming out of the die head and creates problems in the pelletizing process) Most die-face cutting pelletizing systems on the market today face problems when processing BOPP film and PP material in general, particularly with pellets sticking together or producing un-uniformed sized pellets. POLYSTAR’s re-engineered die-face pelletizing system can pelletize BOPP, CPP and OPP as easily as processing HDPE and LDPE film waste.
Pellet quality: The high quality recycled BOPP pellets can be put back into production lines such as injection or other applications.

The same machine can also process PP and PE (HDPE, LDPE, LLDPE) film waste as well as raffia and woven industrial waste. This cutter integrated pelletizing system eliminates the need of pre-cutting the material, requires less space and energy consumption while producing high quality plastic pellets at a productive rate.

In addition to in-house (post-industrial) film waste, the system is also able to process washed flakes, scraps and regrind (pre-crushed rigid plastic waste from injection and extrusion). This equipment is highly recommended for packaging film producers of commercial bags, garbage bags, agricultural films, food packaging, shrink and stretch films, as well as producers in the woven industry of PP woven bags, jumbo bags, tapes and yarns. Other types of material such as PS sheet, PE and PS foam, PE net, EVA, PP mixed with PU are also applicable on this machine.
