TEXTILE WASTE CUTTING MACHINE

Many textile factories utilize cutting machines to cut and process textile waste. But why opt for cutting machines over other types of machines?

Before addressing this question, let's first understand what textile waste entails.

Textile Waste refers to the waste textiles generated during consumption, production, processing, or recycling and sorting. It primarily includes waste from the following sources: residential (old clothes, home textiles like sheets and curtains), industrial (leftovers from clothing factories, defective products, and unsold inventory), and commercial (materials that cannot be directly utilized after sorting at waste recycling stations). Textile waste is characterized by its complex composition, varied forms, and significant differences in physical properties, making it one of the key challenges in recycling resources. According to the China Textile Industry Association, our country produces over 20 million tons of waste textiles annually, with a comprehensive utilization rate of less than 20%. Through grinding and crushing technology, solid waste textiles can be converted into: recycled fiber raw materials for spinning and non-woven fabric production; composite material fillers, which can be mixed with plastics to create building materials and automotive interiors; and energy resources, such as high-heat chemical fiber powder that can be used as fuel additives.

Returning to our topic, let me explain and answer this question for you.

In my view, there are three reasons why cutting machines are preferred for processing textile waste:

1. The initial step in "transforming waste into treasure": Waste textiles, such as old clothes and cloth scraps, come in various shapes and sizes and cannot be directly reused. By cutting and crushing, the cutting machine converts them into standardized raw materials with uniform dimensions, thus enabling subsequent recycling. This is akin to turning waste paper into pulp to make new paper.

2. Efficient sorting and processing: Cut materials are easier to sort automatically (for instance, using airflow or magnetic separation to segregate different components) and are also more amenable to cleaning, disinfection, and further processing, significantly enhancing recovery efficiency.

3. Enhancing the quality of recycled products: By controlling the size and shape of the cut, it is possible to produce recycled fibers that meet various requirements, ensuring the quality stability of final products (such as fillers and non-woven fabrics.

That concludes my news sharing. I hope it is helpful to you. Choose your fiber cutting machine, and we look forward to assisting you.
