Wet Plastic Crusher for Enhanced Recycling
Our Wet Plastic Crusher, also known as a wet granulator, is an advanced machine that shreds, grinds, and simultaneously cleans plastic waste. By injecting water directly into the cutting chamber, it efficiently turns contaminated materials like post-consumer films and rigid containers into high-quality, reusable flakes.
Key Advantages
- Simultaneous Washing & Crushing
Water injection actively washes away dirt, labels, and other contaminants during the granulation process, saving a process step.
- Extended Blade Lifespan
The water lubricates and cools the D2 steel blades, significantly reducing friction, heat, and wear for lower maintenance costs.
- Superior Flake Quality
The cooling effect prevents plastic from melting, resulting in uniform, high-purity flakes with minimal fines and dust.
- Energy-Efficient Design
An optimized open rotor design and efficient cutting action reduce overall energy consumption and operational costs.
- Robust Construction
Built with top-tier components and a dynamically balanced rotor to ensure exceptional reliability and continuous operation.
- Versatile Application
Ideal for recycling plants and manufacturing sectors processing a wide range of plastics, from films to rigid containers.

Frequently Asked Questions
The primary advantage is the built-in pre-washing and cooling. Water cleans contaminants while cooling the blades, which reduces friction, prevents plastic from melting, and extends blade life, resulting in higher quality output from dirty material.
Not entirely. While it provides excellent pre-washing, for heavily contaminated plastics it works best as the first step within a complete washing line. It enhances overall efficiency but may not replace subsequent friction washing or float-sink tanks for achieving the highest purity.
Water greatly improves maintenance. By cooling and lubricating the blades, it reduces the frequency of sharpening. The constant washing action also prevents dirt and melted plastic from building up inside the cutting chamber, making routine clean-ups much faster.
It is highly effective for most thermoplastics like PP, PE, HDPE (bottles, films, rigid items), and ABS. It is particularly advantageous for materials that are dirty or prone to melting from friction. While a dry granulator may suffice for clean materials, the wet crusher offers far greater versatility and quality.
