Squeeze-Dry Pelletizing Line — A Game-Changer for Wet Film Recycling

Turn Wet Film Into Dry Profit With Genius Squeeze Dryer Integrated Recycling Line

Join us at Genius , K-SHOW — Hall 12 Stand A15, October 8–15, 2025, Düsseldorf, Germany.

Conventional shredder–extruder lines struggle with washed film scrap containing 50% moisture—causing steam spikes, wasted energy, and brittle pellets.
Genius Machinery’s patented Squeeze-Dry Pelletizing Line turns that problem into a single-step, compact, and energy-saving solution:

Up to 30% lower energy use (kWh/kg)
40% shorter line length
High-grade pellet output

Why Moisture Is the Hidden Cost Driver

Energy drain – Extra kWh burned to evaporate surface water
Quality loss – Steam flashes create bubbles and reduce IV
Footprint creep – Separate dryers and conveyors stretch your line and CAPEX
Key takeaway: Removing water before melting is the most effective way to reduce OPEX and improve pellet quality.

Squeeze-Dry → Extrude → Pelletize Architecture

Dual Function Within One Screw, Powered By Single Motor. Significant Energy Savings

Core Module	What It Does	Benefit to You
Mechanical Squeeze Dryer	Compresses wet flakes & film, forcing out free water to < 3 % before melting.	≈ 30 % energy savings
Inline Pelletizer & Centrifugal Dryer	Cuts and surface-dries pellets without extra conveyors.	Ultra-compact footprint
Smart PLC & Cloud Dashboard	Tracks OEE and energy consumption (kWh/kg); predictive alarms flag drift. CO₂e tracking and ESG reporting available as an optional upgrade.	Data-driven maintenance & ESG reporting
