Floating washer

1. Mounting and working principle

This machine is used for floating wash and separating the PP,PE, impurity, waste and label. The retarder of the floating washer makes all the rollers run in the same direction to push the whole material; the material is dipping and dispersing during the process. For the PP, PE film, the re is impurity including dirty, sand with it will get down to the bottom of the washer. So that the material will be washed and the impurity will be separated, finally the impurity will be vented by the drain scerw,and the clean material will be transported into next unit. According to the different density of different material, the machine makes the material float and down, then cleans them clearly.

This equipment has the function of stable mange,low noise, completely wash, it’s a necessary part  during the whole process.

2. Main technical parameter

1. Number of washing roller:4-6 sets

2. Effective length：5000-8000MM

3. Power of floating washer：(2.2-3)KW*2pcs

4. Power of drain outlet：2.2-3KW

5. Caliber of drain：200MM

3. Structure brief introduction

Floating washer mainly consists of washer body, power system, dirty draining system, floating washing system and water circulation system 5 parts.

1) The body bears all the room of processing material, and so there is a high requirement for the tightness of the body. Leakage of water phenomena is now allowed during processing material. The part of body contacted with water is made of stainless steel. The material of both sides of the slot is A3 and the diameter is 10mm.   

2) The power system makes the rollers to rotate toward the same direction and by the same principal axis chain, then to make sure the synchronization of all the rollers.

3) The dirty draining system consists of dirty draining screw and motor. The dirty draining screw is at the bottom of the floating washer. The motor drive the screw to rotate and then push dirties out from the dirty draining port.

4) Floating system is consisted of rollers made of stainless steel which has two styles and is used to feed and wash. One style is helix roller which is used to enlarge the material contacting area and to make washing better. The other style with 6 axes is to push material and make the material dip into water enough.  

5) There is a water sensor to auto control the height of the water, if the water is over the highest level, the sensor will stop supplying water to prevent water spilling over.

4.  Mount and debugging

1) The whole machine should be put on the ground or bracket, the angle between the level and bracket shouldn’t be less 0.4mm-2mm,stable fixation without move.

2) Don’t miss any parts in the mounting process; the oil seal can’t be missed when seal the 2 ends of the machine.

3) Keep the two sides super seal without leak for the box of the high speed friction washer.

4) Instruction for safe operation

(1) Check before open

Checking if there is impurity inside of the machine before opening it.

Locking the screw firmly by hands and check it.

Checking all the transporting parts to ensure it’s correct before open 3-mins.

Checking the eddy direction of the principal axis correctly.

Checking the mount and configure of all the bearings.

Check the stainless steel mesh to ensure it can’t be blocked by the impurity.

(2) Please turn off the equipments and the power betimes when appearing the deviant situation before open or boot-strap, checking the machine by professional workers.

(3) Adopting discharge automatically, please don’t touch the inner during the working process.

5. Maintenance

1) Stop the engine after closing the power, and then turn off the electricity.

2) Flange connected with the high speed screwing principal axis and the inner oil seal should be exchanged terminally.

3) The orientation of inner bearing must be correct without move, and it should be add the lube terminally.

4) Check the high speed screwing principal axis every 6 months to ensure safe operation.
