Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of plastic processing technology, specifically to a plastic particle drying device with uniform heating function. Background Technology
[0002] Plastic particles must be dried before injection molding, extrusion and other processing to remove moisture. Residual moisture can cause defects such as bubbles, silver streaks and reduced strength in the product, which has a more significant impact on engineering plastics and recycled plastics.
