To address poor film pickup, incomplete soil&ndash:film separation, and high soil content in conventional residual film recovery machines, this study designed a belt-tooth type residual film recovery machine. Its core component integrates flexible belts with nail-teeth, providing both overload protection and efficient conveying. EDEM simulations compared film pickup performance across tooth profiles, identifying an optimal structure. Based on the kinematics and mechanical properties of residual film, a film removal mechanism and packing device were designed, incorporating partitioned packing belts to reduce soil content rate in the collected film. Using Box&ndash:Behnken experimental design, response surface methodology analyzed the effects of machine forward speed, film-lifting tooth penetration depth, and pickup belt inclination angle. Key findings show: forward speed, belt angle, and tooth depth (descending order) primarily influence recovery rate: while tooth depth, belt angle, and forward speed primarily affect soil content rate. Multi-objective optimization in Design-Expert determined optimal parameters: 5.2 km/h speed, 44 mm tooth depth, and 75°: belt angle. Field validation achieved a 90.15% recovery rate and 5.86% soil content rate. Relative errors below 2.73% confirmed the regression model&rsquo:s reliability. Compared with common models, the recovery rate has increased slightly, while the soil content rate has decreased by more than 4%, meeting the technical requirements for resource recovery of residual plastic film.
