Introduction of friction washer
Friction Washer is used to wash highly contaminated film flakes. They are used for discharging treated material mixed with water from a wet grinder. This also can be used in special cases where the friction washer can be installed in front of or after washing tank.

The friction washer consists of a double-walled trough with a fast running paddle rotor to dewater and clean plastic materials (film flakes, granules and similar materials).

The plastic materials with water are fed at the inlet of the trough. The material is washed while being transported to the outlet of the trough. Fines and water are thrown through the screen to the outside while the friction of the paddle rotor cleans the materials.

The centrifuged drain is discharged at the bottom of the trough. The trough is equipped with a removable screen with a stainless screen. A rinsing device ensures the automatic cleaning of the screen and of the inner housing.
