BOPP Plastic Pelletizing System for Printed and Metallized Film Scrap
Material-specific pelletizing route for BOPP packaging film, printed scrap, metallized film, and BOPP/PE laminates where degassing, filtration, and stable compactor feeding drive pellet quality.
- 300-1,100 kg/h model range
- Designed for printed and metallized BOPP
- Compactor feeding with degassing and water-ring cutting
Related Film Pelletizing Routes

Film Densifier & Squeezer
Relevant when washed film needs moisture and bulk-density conditioning before pelletizing.
BOPP Pelletizing Process
The line is built around stable feeding and removal of volatile residues from printed or laminated BOPP scrap.
1
Feed BOPP Film Scrap
Loose, printed, metallized, or laminated BOPP waste enters the cutter compactor for size reduction and densifying.
2
Compact and Pre-Condition
The compactor raises bulk density and stabilizes feed into the extrusion screw.
3
Melt, Degas, and Filter
Vacuum degassing removes moisture and volatile print residues while melt filtration captures remaining impurities.
4
Water-Ring Pelletizing
Die-face cutting forms uniform pellets that are cooled, dried, screened, and conveyed for packaging.
Why BOPP Needs a Dedicated Pelletizing Route
BOPP film can be light, printed, laminated, or metallized, so stable feeding and degassing matter more than a generic line name.
Stable Feeding for Low-Bulk Film
Integrated cutter compaction reduces bridging and surging before the screw.
Better Volatile Control
Degassing helps manage ink, coating, moisture, and laminated-film residues that can create bubbles.
Uniform Pellet Quality
Water-ring cutting and controlled cooling support consistent pellet shape and downstream handling.
BOPP Equipment and Pellet Showcase
Buyers need to see both the film-specific process equipment and the quality of the final pellet stream.
Equipment View: Cutter Compactor and Pelletizing Line
The compactor, extrusion, filtration, and water-ring cutting modules work together to stabilize BOPP film processing.
- Improves low-density film feeding
- Supports printed and metallized scrap
- Connects compacting, venting, and pelletizing
Material View: Clean Recycled Pellets
The target is a dry pellet stream with consistent shape, density, and reduced bubbles for reuse or resale.
- Stable pellet geometry
- Better handling in storage and conveying
- Improved reuse confidence
Target Applications
This page targets BOPP-heavy streams rather than broad soft-plastic recycling.
BOPP Printing Waste
Convert trim, rolls, and printed packaging film waste into reusable pellets.
Metallized BOPP Film
Process aluminum-coated BOPP with stronger degassing and filtration attention.
BOPP/PE Laminates
Recover multi-layer packaging film streams when the target pellet specification allows it.
Technical Specifications
Standard BOPP pelletizing system range. Motor power and auxiliary equipment are finalized after material testing.
| Model | Screw Diameter | L/D Ratio | Motor Power | Output Capacity |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| ML95 | 95 mm | 30:1 / 32:1 | Project specific | 300-450 kg/h |
| ML110 | 110 mm | 30:1 / 32:1 | Project specific | 450-650 kg/h |
| ML130 | 130 mm | 30:1 / 32:1 | Project specific | 650-900 kg/h |
| ML160 | 160 mm | 30:1 / 32:1 | Project specific | 900-1,100 kg/h |
Final configuration depends on print coverage, metallization, moisture, contamination level, and target pellet application.
Quick Answer and Selection Facts
Direct answers for buyers and AI summaries comparing BOPP film pelletizing systems.
What it is
A BOPP plastic pelletizing system cuts, compacts, melts, degasses, filters, and pelletizes BOPP film scrap into reusable polyolefin pellets.
When to use it
Use a BOPP-specific line for printed, metallized, laminated, loose, or roll-form BOPP scrap where feeding and volatile removal affect pellet quality.
What to specify before RFQ
Define film thickness, roll or loose form, print coverage, metallization, lamination structure, moisture, contamination, throughput, and pellet reuse target.
BOPP Line Configuration Checklist
Competitor pages commonly cover the process modules. Buyers still need to verify how each module is specified for their actual film stream.
| Module | What to Confirm | Why It Matters |
|---|---|---|
| Feeding and Compaction | Compactor volume, blade design, feed control | Low-bulk BOPP can bridge, surge, or melt unevenly without stable densifying |
| Degassing | Vacuum stages and vent layout | Printed and metallized film can release moisture, ink volatiles, and coating residues |
| Filtration | Screen changer type and mesh range | Residual paper, ink solids, gels, or aluminum coating residue affect pellet consistency |
| Pelletizing and Drying | Water-ring or strand route plus dryer and screen | Pellet shape, moisture, and fines control determine storage and reuse behavior |
Frequently Asked Questions
What types of BOPP film can this system process?
It is designed for BOPP packaging film, printing waste, industrial film, metallized film, and selected laminated BOPP streams depending on the target pellet quality.
Why not use a generic film pelletizing line?
A general film line may work for clean PE or PP film, but BOPP often needs closer attention to feeding, degassing, filtration, and pellet cutting because of print, coating, and lamination variables.
Can it handle heavily printed BOPP?
Yes, with the correct degassing and filtration configuration. Material testing is recommended when ink or coating load is high.
Which information is needed for sizing?
Share film form, print coverage, metallization, moisture, contamination level, hourly target, and the desired reuse or resale application for the pellets.
Need a BOPP Pelletizing Layout?
Send material photos, film thickness, print or metallization level, and target throughput. Rumtoo can recommend compactor, screw, filtration, and pelletizing configuration.
