Welcome to the trial run of our 500kg/hr HDPE Rigid Plastics Washing Plant!
This fully integrated recycling system is designed for processing HDPE and PP rigid plastics like bottles, drums, and crates. It ensures plastic waste is thoroughly cleaned, dried, and ready for reuse—efficiently and reliably.
This 500kg/hr HDPE rigid plastic washing line is an eco-friendly, high-efficiency recycling solution, helping businesses meet their sustainability goals while producing high-quality recycled material.
Our electrical control cabinet ensures smooth and user-friendly operation, featuring high-quality branded components for reliability and safety.
We start with the friction screw washer:
Uses friction to clean the material while transferring it to the floating tank.
Effectively removes surface contaminants, improving the quality of the recycled flakes.
Next, the floating tank:
Separates dirt and debris, ensuring thorough cleaning.
Made from durable 2.5mm stainless steel for long-lasting performance.
Now onto the drying system, which plays a crucial role in moisture removal:
The High-Speed Dryer uses centrifugal force to quickly remove excess water.
The Hot Air Dryer further dries the flakes with a powerful stream of hot air, leaving them completely dry and ready for reuse.

Frequently Asked Questions
What materials can this washing plant process?
The line is designed for HDPE and PP rigid plastics — bottles, drums, crates, and similar hollow or bulky items. Rigid feedstock cleans well in this configuration because the friction washer and floating tank handle surface dirt while the sink-float stage rejects heavier contaminants like sand and metals. Mixed rigid streams should be sorted by polymer first for the best flake value.
What equipment does the 500 kg/h line include?
The core sequence is a friction screw washer that cleans while conveying material to the floating (sink-float) tank, then a high-speed centrifugal dryer followed by a hot air dryer for final moisture removal. An electrical control cabinet with branded components runs the whole line. Conveyors connect each stage so the plant operates as one integrated system.
Can I get a larger capacity than 500 kg/h?
This trial-run configuration is rated at 500 kg/h, which suits small to mid-size operations. ASG builds rigid plastic washing lines in larger sizes as well — if your feedstock volumes are higher, share your daily intake and contamination profile so the engineering team can size each stage (washing, separation, drying) to match without creating bottlenecks.
How dry are the flakes after the drying system?
Drying happens in two stages: the high-speed dryer spins off bulk water mechanically, then the hot air dryer finishes with heated airflow, leaving flakes dry and ready for reuse or pelletizing. Two-stage drying keeps energy costs down versus hot air alone. Exact residual moisture depends on flake size and feed rate — confirm the target moisture with ASG for your end use.
What is the floating tank made of, and why does it matter?
The floating tank is built from durable 2.5 mm stainless steel for long service life in constant wet operation. Stainless resists corrosion from wash water and chemicals, which matters because the tank runs full of water all day. Its job is simple but critical: float the clean plastic while dirt, sand, and heavy debris sink for removal.
What are the power and installation requirements?
The line runs from a central electrical control cabinet with high-quality branded components for reliability and safety. Confirm total installed power, water supply, and drainage needs with ASG for your configuration, and plan floor space for the washer, tank, dryers, and interconnecting conveyors plus infeed and discharge areas. A level industrial floor and three-phase power are the baseline.
