One of the greatest challenges for the industries in plastic recycling is handling plastic lumps. These lumps, also referred to as purge, kachra plastic, mould waste, plastic gola, or plastic jhad, are heavy, solid plastic pieces originating from injection molding, blow molding, or extrusion operations. They are extremely hard and irregular in shape, hence very challenging to process with conventional plastic shredders or grinders.
This is where a Lumps Grinder Machine is brought into play. It is specifically designed to break and grind hard plastic lumps into small pieces or flakes so that they can be reused in order to make plastic granules. We at Grinder India offer heavy-duty lumps grinder machines constructed to tackle all kinds of industrial plastic waste easily.
Let's see all that you must know about lumps grinders, their usage, advantages, and actual experiences from users.
What are Plastic Lumps or Purges?
In plastic processing plants, while starting the machine, converting from one product to another, or cleaning, melted plastic solidifies and becomes large hard blocks. These blocks are often referred to as:
- Purge
- Plastic Lump
- Plastic Jhad
- Gola Plastic
- Plastic Patti Kachra
- Mould Kachra
- Plastic Waste Gola
These lumps are not directly fed to an extruder or granulator due to their size and hardness. A specialized Lumps Grinder Machine is therefore employed to break them down into small pieces or flakes.
