The NEUE HERBOLD friction washer is used for water separation and cleaning of regrind, especially film flakes, PET- bottles flakes and other hard plastic materials.

The friction washer is mounted on a zinc-coated frame. Drive is provided by a three-phase motor and an overdimensioned V-belt drive.

The rotor of the friction washer transports the material. During the transport the material is intensively washed. Through the lid of the friction washer it is possible to add additional water straight into the material chamber. This improves the cleaning effect.

Fines, water and soaked paper are spun off and are pressed through the mash of the screen cage. The water / fines mixture is gathering on the inner suface of the housing and is discharged through a discharge nozzle.
