The Waste Plastic Product Machine (WPPM) transforms plastic waste into eco-friendly products through a systematic process involving collection, heating, molding, and finishing. Below is a detailed step-by-step explanation:
Step – I : Plastic Collection and Sorting
A. Material Selection: Collect any types of waste plastic materials such as carry bags, packaging wrappers, multilayered plastics, and food containers with thickness below 150 microns.
B. Cleaning Process: Ensure plastic waste is free from dirt, oils, and organic residues. Mixed waste can be processed directly, but non-plastic items like paper or organic waste must be removed.
C. Weighing: Measure plastic quantities using the provided measurement box to maintain consistency in product weight.
Step – II : Feeding and Melting the Plastic
A. Preheating the Machine:
Set the temperature between 225°C and 260°C for optimal melting.
B. Plastic Feeding:
Insert the plastic into the heating chamber in batches using a wooden stick for even distribution.
C. Thermomesh Process:
The plastic converted into a semi-liquid form within 5–10 minutes, maintaining structural integrity without burning.
Step – III : Molding and Compression
A. Mold Preparation:
– Collect the melted plastic in trays and pour it into custom molds designed for bricks, paver blocks, and road dividers.
– Hydraulic Press System:
– Apply high pressure using the hydraulic press to set the shape and increase strength.
B. Cooling Process:
– Dip the mold in cold water for 10–15 seconds to solidify the product.
.
Step – IV : Finishing the Product
A. Demolding:
– Carefully remove the solidified product from the mold.
B. Polishing and Grinding:
– Use a grinder machine to smooth rough edges and achieve a high-quality finish.
C. Color Coating (Optional):
– Apply paint or coatings for added aesthetics and protection, depending on the product’s application.
Step – V : Final Inspection and Packaging
A. Quality Testing:
– Perform strength tests (e.g., compressive strength above 24 N/mm²) and water absorption checks.
B. Packaging:
– Pack products securely for shipping or storage, ensuring they are ready for immediate use.
