Features of the PVC granulator:

1. High-Efficiency Extrusion System

The machine employs a specially designed screw and barrel structure to ensure:

Stable plasticizing performance

Uniform material melting

Higher extrusion output

Lower energy consumption

Optimized extrusion process improves pellet quality and production efficiency.

2. Advanced Temperature Control System

The intelligent temperature control system enables precise heating and cooling management during processing.

Advantages include:

Stable processing temperature

Reduced material degradation

Improved pellet consistency

Extended equipment lifespan

3. Uniform PVC Granulation System

The granulation unit is designed to produce PVC pellets with uniform size and smooth surface.

Supports:

Hot die granulation

Water-cooled granulation

Strip granulation (optional)

The final PVC pellets can be used directly for extrusion or injection molding production.

4. Energy-Saving and Durable Design

The PVC granulator uses high-quality components and optimized mechanical design to ensure:

Long service life

Low maintenance requirements

Stable continuous production

Low operating costs

The production process of the PVC granulator mainly includes the following steps:

Raw Material Preparation

PVC resin, plasticizer, stabilizer, and filler are uniformly mixed in a specific ratio to create a mixture that meets production requirements. For example, when producing soft PVC granules, the amount of plasticizer added is relatively large; while when producing rigid PVC granules, the amount of plasticizer added is reduced, and the proportion of stabilizer and filler is increased.

Feeding

The mixture is added to the hopper of the PVC granulator via an automatic feeder or manually. An automatic feeder improves feeding efficiency and ensures continuous and stable feeding.

Plasticizing Extrusion

After entering the barrel, the mixture in the hopper gradually heats up, softens, melts, and plasticizes under the combined action of shear force, friction, and external heating generated by the screw rotation. Different parts of the screw have different functions; for example, the feeding section transports the material, the compression section compresses and initially plasticizes the material, and the metering section ensures uniform and stable extrusion. The molten PVC material is pushed by the screw to the die head.

Cooling and Molding

The PVC material extruded from the die is in strip form and is cooled and shaped using either air cooling or water cooling. Air cooling uses cold air blown by a fan to cool the material, while water cooling uses a water tank. Water cooling is faster, but the cooling water temperature needs to be controlled to prevent surface defects.

Granulation

The cooled PVC strips enter a granulator, where a rotary cutter cuts them into granules of a certain length. There are two granulation methods: hot cutting and cold cutting. Hot cutting refers to cutting before the material has completely cooled after extrusion and is suitable for soft PVC; cold cutting refers to cutting after the material has completely cooled and is typically used for rigid PVC.

Screening and Packaging

The cut PVC granules are screened by a vibrating screen. Granules that do not meet the size requirements are separated and returned for further processing. Qualified granules are packaged by a packaging machine for storage and transportation.

PVC granulator Production Precautions:

This PVC granulator’s Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) is clearly structured, covering the following key stages: preparation, operation, and shutdown/maintenance.

For ease of understanding by operators, the following is a simplified and standardized version applicable to daily production:

PVC Granulation Production Line Standard Operating Procedure (SOP)

1. Pre-operation Inspection (Before Start-up)

Equipment Inspection: Confirm all components are in good condition. Check the screw and barrel for wear, ensure the drive, heating, cooling, and control systems are functioning correctly, and confirm all mechanical connections are secure.

Cleaning: Thoroughly clean the barrel and screw, removing all debris or residue to prevent contamination of new batches and ensure product quality.

Material Preparation: Accurately weigh and mix raw materials according to the formulation guide. Inspect the raw materials to ensure they are free of impurities and excessive moisture.

2. Start-up and Production Operation

Preheating: Gradually heat the barrel according to the target temperature profile. After reaching the set temperature, maintain the specified holding time to ensure uniform plasticization and protect the equipment from thermal stress.

Start-up Sequence:

1. Start the screw at low speed.

2. Feed a small amount of raw material into the hopper.

3. After the material is successfully extruded, gradually increase the screw speed and feed rate until normal production parameters are reached.

Parameter Monitoring: Continuously monitor process parameters, including zone temperature, melt pressure, and screw speed. If pressure spikes or fluctuations occur due to changes in raw materials, adjust the feed rate, screw speed, or formulation accordingly.

Feed Stability: Maintain a stable and continuous material feed. Strictly prevent foreign objects (especially metal objects) from entering the hopper, as this can severely damage the screw and barrel.

3. Post-Production Maintenance

Cleaning: Extrude all remaining material in the barrel. Clean the screw and barrel using a suitable cleaning agent or shutdown cleaner to prevent resin degradation during downtime.

System Shutdown: Shut down the heating zone, main drive motor, cooling water lines, and compressed air system. Perform routine maintenance, such as lubricating drive components.

Safety Procedures:

Interlocks and Protective Devices: Keep all safety doors and devices closed during operation. Never bring hands or tools near moving parts while the machine is running.

Daily Inspections: Periodically test the emergency stop button and safety interlocks to ensure they are functioning properly.
