Turning Styrofoam Waste Into Eco-Friendly Solutions

About Our Densifiers

PWH-300 Heavy Duty Hot Melt Styrofoam Densifier

The PWH-300 stands as one of our flagship and highly sought-after densifiers. This hand-fed machine efficiently processes foam by shredding it, simultaneously applying heat to densify and extrude purge blocks, resulting in the production of recyclable final products. Capable of densifying expanded polystyrene (EPS), expanded polyethylene (EPE), and expanded polypropylene (EPP), the PW-300 offers versatility in waste management solutions.

Made in America

Our unwavering commitment to excellence and dependability is evident in our choice to produce all our machines in the USA. Opting for local manufacturing underscores our emphasis on quality control while reaffirming our dedication to bolstering the American economy and workforce. This decision enables us to meticulously oversee each stage of production, from procuring top-notch materials to implementing stringent quality assurance protocols.

Turn Your Foam Waste Into A Potential Resource

Densifying and recycling styrofoam presents an ideal solution for managing scrap foam within our customers’ waste streams. Our machines effectively process foam on-site, compressing it into either purge or block forms, thereby producing recyclable products for the market. Our hot melt styrofoam densifiers range from basic low horsepower models to comprehensive systems that include shredders, blowers, and extruders, catering to diverse needs and operations.

System Startup Procedure

  1. Setting Temperature: Initiate by adjusting the desired operating temperature using the control panel of the densifier. The appropriate temperature setting varies depending on the type and density of the styrofoam being processed.
  2. Heating Process: Allow the system time to heat up to the pre-set temperature. The duration of this process may vary depending on factors such as the size of the densifier and initial temperature conditions.
  3. Auger Activation: Once the system reaches the specified temperature, the auger will automatically commence operation. This component ensures a consistent material flow for processing.
  4. Shredder Activation: Following the activation of the auger, the shredder component of the densifier will engage. Responsible for breaking down larger styrofoam pieces into smaller, more manageable pieces, the shredder prepares the material for densification.
  5. Ready for Operation: With both the auger and shredder now operational, the PolyWiz Hot Melt Styrofoam Densifier is primed for use. You can begin feeding Styrofoam waste into the hopper, initiating the processing phase.

Simplified System Maintenance

Positioned strategically on a singular, user-friendly panel, all grease fittings ensure lubrication tasks are both effortless and convenient. This arrangement not only simplifies maintenance procedures but also motivates operators to adhere to routine upkeep schedules. By streamlining maintenance protocols and offering easy access to crucial components, we empower our clients to maintain the longevity and efficiency of their equipment, ultimately enhancing productivity and minimizing downtime.

  • Easy to access grease fittings all in one convenient location
  • Easy to remove guard to access drive chain and apply lubricant
  • Easy to locate hole for simple gear oil application
  • And that’s it! Machine maintenance is simple with PolyWiz!

Feeding the Machine

Our hot melt densifiers come equipped with a manual feeding system, providing operators with complete control over the input process. This manual feeding mechanism enables operators to closely monitor and adjust the rate at which styrofoam waste is fed into the densifier. This hands-on approach offers flexibility in handling different types of styrofoam materials, ensuring efficient processing while reducing the risk of jams or overloading.

What Materials Can it Densify?

  • Expanded Polypropylene (EPP)
  • Expanded Polystyrene (EPS)
  • Expanded Polyethylene (EPE)

Densifier Breakdown

Powder Coated Finish

Powder coating offers exceptional corrosion resistance compared to traditional paint, significantly prolonging the lifespan of our equipment.

Simplified Maintenance

Regular maintenance prolongs machinery lifespan and is more likely to be performed when it’s straightforward. Conveniently, all grease fittings are positioned on a single, easily accessible panel.

Powerful Shredder

Our machines are equipped with a robust shredder that effectively transforms larger styrofoam pieces into smaller, more manageable fragments, facilitating the densification process with efficiency.

Purge Mold

The purpose of the purge molds is to shape the extruded melted product into blocks, which can be conveniently stacked on a pallet for efficient shipping to your recycler.

Touchscreen Human Interface

Touchscreen HMIs streamline equipment operation, minimizing the likelihood of operator errors.

Temperature Control

This feature enables users to finely tune the operating temperature to match the precise requirements of the material undergoing processing.

Heat Tube

The heat tube within our hot melt densifiers effectively liquefies styrofoam waste, facilitating its conversion into compacted blocks or ingots.

Heavy Duty Casters

Heavy-duty casters offer superior mobility in contrast to standard rail mounts.
