Wash Plant | Turnkey Plastic Film & Rigid Plastics Recycling Line | Shredding Washing

Transform dirty plastic waste into clean, high-value recyclate with the Telford Smith Wash Plant — a fully modular, turnkey recycling and washing line engineered for plastic film and rigid plastics. From contaminated input to pellet-ready output, every stage is integrated for maximum efficiency, yield and ROI.

???? System Overview — Plastic Film Washing Line (29-Component Turnkey Solution):
Horizontal Conveyor — Controlled infeed of loose film
Inclined Conveyor with Metal Detector — Ferrous/non-ferrous protection
ZSS1500 Shredder — High-throughput size reduction
Horizontal Auger — Consistent feed to wash stage
Outfeed Conveyor — Material transfer
6m Sink/Swim Tank — Density-based separation (float/sink)
Friction Washer FW500/3000 — Aggressive contaminant removal
Inclined Drainage Auger — Dewatering between stages
GSH600/800 S5-3 Wash Granulator — Wet grinding for film
10–16. Multi-Stage Wash Train — Additional sink/swim tanks, friction washers and drainage for thorough cleaning
Squeezer — Mechanical water removal
Horizontal Auger — Transfer to drying
MD800 Mechanical Dryer — High-efficiency moisture reduction
20–26. Pneumatic Conveying Train — Blowers, cyclone, pre-cleaner for clean material transport
Bagging Station — Final packaging of clean flake
28–29. Dual Control Panels — Blank + touchscreen operator interface for full process control

???? Rigid Plastics Washing Line (Modular 7-Stage Configuration):
Conveyor with Metal Detector — Safe, protected infeed
Wet/Wash Granulator — Size reduction + initial washing
Friction Washer — Label, adhesive and contaminant removal
Swim/Sink Tank — Density separation for mixed rigid streams
Mechanical Dryer — Centrifugal or squeezer-type dewatering
Thermal Dryer (Optional) — Final moisture reduction for extrusion-ready flake
Big-Bag Filling Station — Automated packaging of clean recyclate

???? Core Benefits:
? Turnkey, Modular Design — Pre-engineered components integrate seamlessly; scale or reconfigure as your feedstock or output requirements change
? Proven International Performance — Deployed successfully in Germany, Hungary, Lithuania, Nigeria and Benelux countries
? Multi-Stage Contaminant Removal — Metal detection, sink/float separation, friction washing and mechanical drying ensure high-purity output
? Flexible Feedstock Handling — Process LDPE/LLDPE film, HDPE/PP rigid containers, mixed post-consumer or post-industrial streams
? Integrated Automation — Touchscreen HMI control panel with recipe storage, fault diagnostics and production tracking
? Australian Engineering Support — Local commissioning, training and spare parts via Telford Smith's Dandenong South facility

???? Technical Highlights:
• ZSS1500 Shredder — High-torque, low-speed cutting for film and light rigid plastics
• FW500/3000 Friction Washer — Adjustable rotor speed and residence time for optimal cleaning
• GSH/GSE S5-3 Wash Granulators — Wet grinding with water injection for contaminant suspension
• MD800 Mechanical Dryer — Centrifugal dewatering with <3% residual moisture capability
• Sink/Swim Tanks (6m) — Configurable weir heights and flow rates for precise density separation
• Pneumatic Conveying Train — Blowers, cyclones and pre-cleaners for dust-free material transport
• Touchscreen Control Panel — Recipe management, alarm logging, production reporting and remote diagnostics ready

???? Optimised For:
• Plastic Film: LDPE/LLDPE stretch wrap, shopping bags, agricultural film, post-consumer packaging
• Rigid Plastics: HDPE bottles, PP containers, PET trays, mixed rigid post-consumer waste
• Output Forms: Clean flake for extrusion, pelletising, or direct sale to reprocessors

???? Ideal For:
• MRFs and material recovery facilities adding plastic washing capability
• Film recyclers upgrading from basic washing to multi-stage, high-purity systems
• Rigid plastics processors requiring density separation and thorough contaminant removal
• Export-focused operations needing consistent, specification-grade recyclate
• Facilities seeking turnkey solutions with local Australian support and commissioning

???? Optional Upgrades:
• Thermal Dryer Module — For extrusion-ready moisture levels (<0.5%)
• Optical Sorting Integration — NIR or colour sorters for enhanced purity
• Extrusion & Pelletising Line — Complete flake-to-pellet turnkey expansion
• Water Treatment & Recycling System — Closed-loop water management for sustainability compliance
• Advanced HMI Features — Cloud connectivity, remote monitoring and predictive maintenance
