Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of composite material particle production technology, and in particular relates to a particle melting device for the production of LFTD thermoplastic composite material particles. Background Technology

[0002] LFTD (Low Temperature Low Friction Co-melting Processing) particles, as an innovative thermoplastic composite molding technology, have broad application potential in multiple industries due to their high performance, environmental friendliness, and recyclability.

[0003] The production of LFTD thermoplastic composite granules requires multiple processing steps, among which stirring is a crucial process. However, existing granule melting devices have poor stirring performance, easily resulting in uneven stirring of composite materials and low stirring efficiency, which usually requires a significant amount of time. The stirring efficiency greatly affects the granule melting efficiency. Therefore, we propose a granule melting device for the production of LFTD thermoplastic composite granules.
