Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to PET material cutting technology field, concretely underwater cutting device of PET granulator. BACKGROUND

[0002] Underwater cutting technology is the key link of PET granulation, and its core is to rapidly cool the melt and cut it into uniform particles through water cooling. However, PET material has high crystallinity, high viscosity and heat sensitivity, which puts high requirements on underwater cutting device.

[0003] However, the existing technology has the following significant defects: if the PET melt is not cooled sufficiently during the cutting process, a molten layer will remain on the surface, causing particles to stick together. Traditional devices have uneven water distribution or insufficient cooling efficiency, making it difficult to stabilize the cutting water temperature below 25℃ (PET glass transition temperature is about 70-80℃), and the sticking rate is generally more than 15%. In particular, in the processing of recycled PET (rPET), impurities and degradation products further exacerbate sticking, requiring additional release agents (such as silicone oil), increasing costs and environmental risks. The intrinsic viscosity (IV value) of PET melt is usually 0.72-1.0 dL / g, and the high viscosity of the melt generates a large shear resistance on the cutting knife. The hardness of traditional blade materials (such as ordinary high-speed steel) is insufficient, and the cutting edge becomes blunt after 4-8 hours of continuous operation, resulting in uneven cutting size (particle size fluctuation > ± 0.5mm). Frequent downtime for knife replacement not only reduces production efficiency (daily loss of 2-3 hours), but also incurs high labor maintenance costs. SUMMARY
