Operate The Plastic Granulator Correctly

Feb 27, 2026

Many manufacturing enterprises have encountered such customers: without any parameters, they directly ask: How much is one of your plastic granulators? When this situation occurs, everyone must be very helpless and have no idea where to start answering. To understand plastic granulators, it is necessary to start from the basic composition.
Including: During the processes of mechanical equipment, adjustment, operation, and protection, granulation is utilized for observation and attention, thereby grasping the key points of plastic granulator operation. This is because the use of plastic granulators will inevitably lead to wear and tear. However, when the wear reaches a certain extent, various abnormalities will occur. Reasonable and correct operation of plastic granulators is a necessary condition and can significantly reduce wear and tear. Extend the service life. How should we operate the plastic granulator correctly?
Preparatory work: For plastic hard materials used in extrusion molding, pay attention to the drying issue. The raw materials should meet the required drying requirements. If necessary, further drying is required. At different elongation rates, the force shows a linear change, sieving the material to remove lumps, aggregates and mechanical impurities.
During the operation of the plastic granulator, check whether the water, electricity, gas and other systems in the equipment are normal to ensure that the water, gas and other systems are normal. When the auxiliary machine is running at low speed without load, it is necessary to check whether the equipment is operating normally. Start the vacuum pump of the shaping table and investigate whether all operations are normal and whether the lubrication parts of various equipment have been filled.
After reaching a constant temperature state, start the machine. Before starting the machine, tighten the machine head and the plastic granulator again to eliminate the thermal expansion of the bolts and the machine head. The sequence of tightening the machine head bolts is diagonal tightening, and the force should be uniform. When tightening the flange nuts of the machine head, it is required that the tightness and looseness be carried out simultaneously nearby; otherwise, the plastic granulator will experience material leakage.
