PET bottle shredder plays an important role in plastic recycling and pelletizing. However, sometimes we may encounter frequent plastic bag crusher machine jamming, affecting work efficiency. This phenomenon can usually be attributed to three main reasons, such as material clogging, transmission system problems, and overload or improper operation.
PET bottle shredder material blockage
Material clogging is a common source of plastic bottle shredder machine jams. During the crushing process, plastics can become clogged due to factors such as moisture, shape, or size, preventing smooth feeding. In particular, soft plastics or plastics containing foreign materials are more likely to cause clogging. To prevent a PET bottle shredder from becoming clogged with material, operators need to regularly check the inlet, hopper, and discharge ports to ensure smooth material flow in and out.
Plastic bag crusher machine drive system problems
Transmission system problems are also one of the common causes of PET bottle shredder jamming. Triangular belts, chains, gears, and other transmission parts that are worn, broken, or loose will affect the transmission of power from the motor to the crushing parts, leading to jamming. Regular inspection and maintenance of the plastic bottle shredder machine transmission system to ensure its normal operation will help to reduce the resulting downtime.
PET bottle shredder overload
Plastic bag crusher machine is easy to overload when dealing with a large number of plastics, overload not only affects the crushing effect but is also prone to trigger jamming. In addition, the improper operation is also an important reason for jamming, such as too fast feeding, frequent starting and stopping, etc. will increase the load of the equipment. Operators should ensure that the PET bottle shredder is operated within a reasonable load range and follow the correct operating procedures to avoid unnecessary jamming problems.
