Description
The label separator, sometimes referred to as the “air classifer” uses air pressure to separate heavier materials from lighter ones. As PET bottles are shredded whole, the material stream from the granulator will include a portion of PP / PE films from on the bottle labels. The label separator does an excellent job of this separating PET flakes from plastic film labels.
How It Works
The mixture of PET flakes and PP/PE labels enter a sorting chamber containing a column of raising air. As the material mixes and is blown upwards, the PP / PE films (the lighter material) are blown upwards and are stored in a collection tank while the PET flakes (the heavier material) drop through the bottom and continue onto the next piece of machinery.
