Waterless Pelletizing: A Smarter Choice for Clean Plastic Scrap

Less Water. Lower Heat. Simpler Recycling.

For Clean Material

For clean PE and PP production scrap, a complete washing and conventional pelletizing line may be more than you actually need. The AMWP Waterless Pelletizing Machine is designed for clean post-industrial plastic waste such as film edge trims, rejected products, and factory scrap. Instead of relying on multiple heating zones, it uses self-friction plasticizing technology, with only the die head heated to approximately 110–120°C.

How It Works — 6 Simple Steps

01  |  Clean Plastic Scrap

02  |  Continuous Feeding

03  |  Self-Friction Plasticizing

04  |  Low-Temperature Die Extrusion

05  |  Pellet Cutting

06  |  Air Conveying & Collection

The rotating screw creates most of the heat required for plasticizing through friction between the material, screw, and barrel. This reduces dependence on external heating and helps limit unnecessary thermal degradation during recycling.

When Is Waterless Pelletizing Worth Using?

01 | Your waste is already clean
Best for PE film edge trims, PP film scrap, film blowing waste, bag-making scrap, rejected products, and other clean post-industrial plastic waste.

02 | You want in-house recycling
Recycle production scrap directly beside the production line: Production → Scrap → Pelletizing → Recycled Pellets → Reuse.

03 | You want a smaller recycling system
Without large washing tanks, dryers, and wastewater treatment equipment, the overall layout is more compact and easier to install.

04 | You want lower thermal exposure
Low-temperature die heating at approximately 110–120°C helps reduce unnecessary heat exposure during recycling.
