Plastic Film Squeezer & Densifier
Plastic film squeezer & densifier (screw-press dryer) for washed PE/PP film - cuts moisture to <5% (typical) and outputs dense granules for Pelletizing. See our Equipment range or request a Quote.
< 5% Residual Moisture for Superior Pellets
Mechanical squeezing, complemented by an optional heated zone, delivers exceptionally low moisture for stable, high-quality extrusion.
Boosted Bulk Density for Higher Throughput
Compacts washed film and bags to optimize conveyor loading and dramatically increase pelletizer throughput.
Unmatched Energy Efficiency
Replace costly and inefficient hot-air drying sections with our powerful high-torque dewatering technology.
Heavy-Duty Construction for Maximum Durability
Engineered with a nitrided 38CrMoAlA screw and barrel for superior wear resistance and an extended operational life.
See the Plastic Film Squeezer & Densifier in Action
Witness how washed film exits the friction washer and is powerfully compressed inside the perforated barrel. See how the optional heated section stabilizes moisture and produces a dense, uniform discharge, ensuring a steady, high-throughput pelletizing process.
- Achieve low moisture with minimal energy consumption through advanced mechanical squeezing.
- The semi-plasticizing option guarantees superior feed stability for your pelletizer.
- Built to last with a wear-resistant, nitrided screw and barrel for an extended service life.
High-Torque Dewatering and Densification for Peak Performance
Positioned strategically after the final wash and right before pelletizing, our squeezer press reduces or replaces energy-intensive thermal drying. A typical process flow is optimized as: Plastic Film Washing Line → Dewatering Squeezer → Optional Thermal Dryer → Surge Silo → Pelletizing. The perforated barrel rapidly drains water, while the screw's high compression ratio delivers a dense, uniform discharge. Add the heated semi-plasticizing zone to further reduce residual moisture and stabilize the pelletizer feed.
Versatile Processing: Film, Woven & Jumbo Bags
Expertly designed for soft PE/PP materials with high moisture content post-washing.
Advanced Safety Interlocks
Door switches and overload protection are integrated to safeguard operators and protect the drivetrain.
Precision Process Control
Features VFD speed control and precise temperature regulation on the heated zone for consistent results.
Engineered for Easy Serviceability
Replaceable perforated barrel sections and easily accessible bearings minimize downtime and simplify maintenance.

How much moisture is reduced?
Typical reduction is from >30% to <5% moisture after squeezing. With the heated option, many feedstocks can be pushed lower (often ~3%) for more stable pelletizing.
Does it plasticize the material?
It semi-plasticizes the material via friction heat, densifying not-fully-melted popcorn-like granules.
What is the throughput?
Standard models range from 200–800 kg/h, depending on material type, contamination, and initial moisture.
Is maintenance difficult?
Wear-resistant screw and barrel liners ensure long life, with easy access for replacement.
