What is EPS?
Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) foam is a lightweight and durable material widely used in the packaging and insulation industries. However, because it decomposes very slowly in nature, it can lead to significant environmental issues. EPS foam melting machines offer a solution by recycling this waste, benefiting both the environment and the economy.
What is an EPS Foam Melting Machine?
EPS foam melting machines are devices that reduce the volume of waste foam by up to 90% through a heating process, transforming it into compact, manageable blocks. This significantly simplifies transportation and storage while contributing to the recycling process.
How Does an EPS Foam Melting Machine Work?
-
Feeding and Crushing: Waste EPS foam is fed into the machine either manually or automatically. Inside, a dual-shaft shredder breaks the foam into smaller pieces.
-
Heating and Melting: The crushed foam is transferred to a heated barrel. A rotating screw mechanism melts the foam, significantly reducing its volume.
-
Extrusion: The melted foam is discharged as dense, solid blocks, which are easy to store and transport.
-
Temperature Control: The machine operates with an automatic temperature control system to ensure efficient and uniform melting.
-
Discharge and Collection: The compacted blocks are discharged from the machine and collected, ready for recycling.
