The Core Equipment for Textile Waste Disposal – The Wind Sifter Separator Machine
In the green transformation of the textile industry, the Wind Sifter Separator machine, as a key piece of equipment for the refined treatment of textile waste, has become a core link in the resource utilization of waste due to its efficient sorting capabilities. This equipment uses aerodynamics as its core principle, achieving efficient separation of different components in textile waste through precise control of airflow speed and direction, providing high-purity raw materials for subsequent recycling.

From a workflow perspective, the Wind Sifter Separator machine has a clear operating logic and a high degree of automation. Textile waste first enters the feed inlet via a conveyor belt. After pre-treatment by a dispersing device, the loose waste clumps are evenly fed into the sorting chamber. At this point, a stable airflow generated by a blower is injected from the bottom or side of the sorting chamber, achieving stratification based on the density differences of different substances in the waste, such as fibers, yarns, and plastic impurities: less dense fibrous materials are lifted by the airflow and enter the fiber collection channel with the rising airflow, eventually falling into the cyclone separator for collection; while denser impurities such as metal fragments and hard plastic lumps, due to gravity, enter the impurity recovery bin along the guide plate at the bottom of the sorting chamber. The entire process requires no chemical reagents; preliminary purification of waste materials is achieved solely through physical sorting. Sorting efficiency reaches 1.5-3 tons per hour, with a fiber recovery rate consistently above 90%.

The equipment's structural design fully considers the diverse characteristics of textile waste. The sorting chamber employs an arc-shaped guide plate design, allowing flexible adjustment of the airflow angle according to the waste type, preventing fiber entanglement and blockage. The blower uses a variable frequency control system, supporting precise airflow speed adjustment from 0.5-3 m/s, capable of handling both lightweight natural fibers like cotton and linen, as well as denser chemical fiber waste such as polyester and nylon. Furthermore, the equipment is equipped with a dust filter that effectively collects fine fiber dust generated during the sorting process, with dust emission concentrations below 10 mg/m³, meeting national air pollutant emission standards and solving the dust pollution problem of traditional screening processes.

In practical applications, the wind-powered screening machine is widely adaptable to various waste types, including textile mill scraps, shredded waste clothing, and yarn breaks, providing high-quality raw materials for downstream recycled fiber production and nonwoven fabric processing. Compared to traditional manual sorting, this equipment not only increases sorting efficiency by 8-10 times but also reduces labor costs by more than 70%, while reducing waste landfill volume and helping the textile industry form a circular economy model of "waste-sorting-recycling". With increasingly stringent environmental policies and growing demand for recycled fibers, wind-powered sorting machines are becoming an important equipment support for textile companies to achieve green production.
