Using the Foam Recycling Machine Transform Raw Materials into What You Want
The styrofoam recycling machine is mainly used to process foam materials such as EPE and EPS.
- EPE foam is known for its soft texture and excellent cushioning properties, making it ideal for use in packaging materials and thermal insulation.
- EPS foam, conversely has high hardness and strength and is often used to make thermal insulation boxes, packaging boxes, and so on.
Through a series of processing steps, the foam recycling machine can regenerate these waste EPE and EPS foam materials and finally convert them into recycled pellets. The pictures are as follows:
A Step-by-step Guide to Realize High-efficiency Recycling
Step 1: Crushing
First, crushing is the starting part of the whole plastic foam recycling line. Waste foam products (such as foam boards, foam boxes, etc.) are fed into the foam cutting machine for crushing. The purpose of crushing is to break large pieces of foam material into small particles for subsequent handling and processing. The blades of the machine are made of 60 silicon-dimanganese, which is very durable.
- Capacity: 250~500kg/h
- Blades Material: 60 Si2Mn
- Function: Crushing large foam plastics into smaller pieces
Step 2: Melting And Extrusion
The crushed pellets are fed into the plastic foam grinder, where they are heated and melted to turn the foam material into a molten state. The molten foam is then extruded through a mold into long plastic strips in the form of noodles. The whole heating process with high power and low energy consumption can effectively improve production efficiency.
- Types: EPS Pelletizer and EPE Pelletizer
- Capacity: 150~375kg/h
- Function: Transforming foam plastics into pellets
Step 3: Cooling
The extruded plastic strips are passed through the cooling tank for rapid cooling. This process helps the strips to cure quickly and maintain their shape. The large-capacity cooling tank is made of steel, which is very resistant.
- Length: 0.4*2.5m
- Materials: High-quality stainless steel
- Function: Cooling granules to keep shape
Step 4: Cutting
Finally, the cooled plastic strip is fed into the plastic pellet cutting machine, which cuts the plastic pellets into the desired size and shape as required. The cut foam particles can be directly packaged or further processed and utilized.
- Capacity: 150~280kg/h
- Power: 2.2~3.0KW
- Final Products: foam granules

EPS Hot Melting Recycling Machine
EPS hot melting machine is mainly used for crushing waste foam products and heating them while crushing to make them lumped so that the foam material becomes uniform granular or lump material.
Foam Compactor Machine
Foam compressors are mainly used to cold press large volumes of foam into blocks for easy storage and transportation. What’s more, compressing plastic foam also can help to avoid resource waste. There are two types of foam compactors and Shuliy offers both vertical EPS foam compactors and horizontal EPS foam compactors. If you need any, please feel free to contact us.
