Background: Mr. Jignesh Patel, a 48-year-old male with a primary school education, has spent 15 years in the plastic woven bag production industry in Ahmedabad. His 1,000-square-meter small factory, employing 15 workers, produces woven bags for local agricultural and cement industries—Ahmedabad’s key economic sectors. In recent years, the cost of new plastic particles has risen by 40%, so Mr. Jignesh decided to invest in a Plastic granulator to recycle waste plastic woven bags (from his own factory and local farmers) and reduce raw material costs. Ahmedabad’s agricultural sector generates massive amounts of waste woven bags used for grain and fertilizer packaging, providing him with a stable raw material supply. However, the woven bags contain soil, thread, and other impurities, making processing challenging, so a reliable Plastic granulator was essential.
Plastic granulator
The Challenge
Mr. Jignesh faced two major challenges. First, the waste plastic woven bags had high impurity content (up to 10%), including soil, thread, and cement residues, which caused frequent clogging of the traditional Plastic granulator he tested earlier—shutting down 4-5 times a day and reducing daily operation time to 6 hours. Second, the woven bags were tough and difficult to crush, leading to low processing efficiency (250kg/h) and uneven particle quality, with a qualification rate of only 72%. Additionally, Mr. Jignesh had no professional mechanical knowledge, so he needed easy-to-operate equipment with reliable after-sales service. His factory is located near a residential area, so noise pollution was also a concern (traditional equipment exceeded 85dB, leading to resident complaints).
The Solution
We provided Mr. Jignesh with a TL-300 anti-clogging Plastic granulator, customized for waste plastic woven bags and suitable for factory environments near residential areas. The specific configuration includes:
- A special feeding hopper with a multi-layer filter screen, removing large impurities (soil, thread) before processing to prevent clogging.
- A specialized anti-clogging screw with a spiral design, capable of processing woven bags with up to 12% impurity content without shutdowns.
- A high-power crushing system (22KW) that easily crushes tough woven bags, boosting processing efficiency to 550kg/h.
- A multi-layer noise reduction system (noise cover + shock-absorbing pads), reducing operating noise to below 68dB, complying with local noise standards.
- PLC full-automatic control with a simple interface, allowing workers to master operation in 1 day of training, plus 24/7 online technical support and on-site maintenance within 48 hours in Ahmedabad.
Plastic granulator
The Results
After 4 months of operation, the Plastic granulator completely solved Mr. Jignesh’s challenges. Equipment clogging was eliminated, and daily operation time increased from 6 hours to 12 hours. Processing efficiency surged from 250kg/h to 550kg/h—a 120% improvement—allowing him to process 6.6 tons of woven bags daily. The product qualification rate rose to 98%, with the recycled particles suitable for direct use in woven bag production, reducing raw material costs by 45% (saving 80,000 INR monthly). The low-noise design stopped resident complaints, ensuring the factory operated normally. Mr. Jignesh also expanded his raw material sources to local farmers, increasing his monthly income by 65% (from 1.3 lakh INR to 2.15 lakh INR). “This Plastic granulator is easy to operate and reliable—no clogging and low noise, it has helped me save a lot of money,” Mr. Jignesh said. His factory’s cost savings allowed him to hire 5 more workers, contributing to local employment, all thanks to his efficient Plastic granulator.
