Air Classifier/Zigzag Separation

Applications

Air classifier pneumatically removes light impurities like paper and plastic labels from rigid plastics and plastic films.
Typically used for eliminating PP/PE labels from PET bottles and labels from blue drums and plastic films.

Introduction

Air classifier for plastics uses air as a medium to separate light objects from heavier plastics. A strong airflow comes from the bottom to the top, while a stream of materials falls from the top. Plastic flakes and granules then go through a zigzag channel. In the meantime, lighter materials like labels and dust are blown upward and collected in filter bags.

As a result, high-quality plastics are collected without labels and dust.
