Description
The high-speed friction washer is an efficient cold washing machine designed for cleaning PET flakes through friction. In our standard PET bottle washing line, the friction washer utilizes cold water to further scrub away residual dirt following the hot washing process.
How It Works
At the center of the high-speed friction washer is a long, fast-spinning shaft equipped with multiple tilted paddles. Surrounding this rotating shaft is a mesh screen tunnel that serves to dewater the material and filter out small contaminants such as dirt particles. The entire apparatus is enclosed in a large rectangular case with strategically positioned water jets and nozzles aimed at the mesh screen. The machine is positioned at an incline of approximately 15 degrees, with dirty PET flakes being fed into a vertical feeder at the lower end. Clean PET flakes exit through the higher end and proceed to the drying phase.
The rotating shaft within the friction washer operates at nearly 1,000 rotations per minute. As PET flakes enter the machine, the material is agitated at high speeds, allowing friction between individual flakes to effectively scrub off dirt and debris. Water is continuously introduced through jets that spray onto the mesh screen, preventing potential clogging and ensuring optimal cleaning efficiency.
