New Product

evolution

"e・PELLETER" has evoluted as "EP50-16". The new machine has 16 nozzles and makes more production with same size of machine. This machine has a pellet feeding unit to raw material bags as a optional.

Outline

Air-cooling Type Pellet Production Machine (for stand-alone use)

epochal

The use of a special super short screw of our own design and an air-cooling system (patented) has minimized the deterioration of resin quality due to heating. The air-cooling system makes it possible to produce recycled pellets that do not require pre-drying before molding.

economic

This machine’s simple design makes its price reasonable.Its compact design allows for placement alongside the molding machine as one machine “CUTandPELLETER” that is integrated with the granulator (COMPACK).

easy

The melted strands are automatically fed into the cutter without manual feeding.You can operate this machine only by setting the speed of a screw and a cutter, heater temperature, and air flow, as well as setting the condition easily.

Air-cooling Type Pellet Production Machine (for production line (in-line) use)

built-in cutter

Now e・Pelleter equips a granulating cutter inside.
After loading of runners expelled from the moldig machine, runners get granulated by the cutters and melted with the screw to form recycled pellets.
This system allows an instant pelletization of fixed runners following the molding cycles.

This machine is only applicable to runners discharged from the molding machine in a fixed cycle.

compact

This compct design allows easy installation alongside your molding machine.
We propose replacement of the existing granulator by this machie.
Also it can be linked to a hopper loader when the vacuum collector device (optional accessory) attached.

cost saving

We simplified the granulating machanism and reduced the numbers of parts significantly.
Around 40% cost reduction than previous model has been achived.

Pellet Production Machine with Blender

  • New machine with fixed quantity mixing arrived.

Fixed quantity mixing equipment installed CPB200-4 has been newly developed.
This can perform operations from granulating to pelletization and mixing by only this one machine.
It mixes recycled pellet and virgin materials at a certain fixed rate.
All an operator has to do is to load the materials. This machine will do the rest of works automatically.

This machine is only applicable to runners discharged from the molding machine in a fixed cycle.


Feature

  • Super short screw that minimizes quality degradation due to heating

超短スクリュ

Resin deterioration due to heating is unavoidable. We have succeeded in suppressing resin deterioration by using the super short screw designed and manufactured in-house.

  • Air cooling system as maintenance free

The melted strands from the extruder are efficiently cooled as they pass through the cooling pipe. There is no need to manage the cooling water or maintain the tank as in the case of the water cooling type. The air cooling system can produce recycled pellets that no need pre-drying before molding.

  • Superior Sharp Cutting

カッタ

The cutter and fixed blades of the pelletizer are composed of cemented carbide which keeps the cutter life long even when cutting materials containing glass.
A unique gapless structure also produces uniformly-sized and good pellets even from soft elastomer.
The cold cut type makes almost no powder .

  • Compact design

The e-PELLETER is more compact than other companies' air-cooled granulators and can be used for repelletizing in a limited space. The c-PELLETER is almost as small as the e-PELLETER while incorporating the grinding mechanism, so it can be installed next to the molding machine without difficulty.

Coloring

  • Three types of nozzles

We have newly developed EP50-16 with 16 nozzles against EP50-4 with 4 nozzles and EP50-8 with 8 nozzles (Conventional machine).
It allows for high-volume production with material which takes time to cool down.

4 Nozzles(EP50-4)

8 Nozzles(EP50-8)

  • Automatic Shutdown

Turning the automatic shutdown switch ON, the main switch automatically turns OFF when materials end.
This function is safe for unattended operation at night.

  • Some Kinds of Screw (optional)

You can choose screw type, long type for super engineering plastic like a LCP, mixing type for coloring, etc.

Q&A

What kind of resins are producible ?

e・PELLETER and c・PELLETER respond to various resins. But, there are several difficult resin to product pellets. So, we conduct sample test, facing an inquiry.

How much materials are required for test ?

Usually, 5 kg is enough. If you request c・PELLETER (for production line use), please send us plastic runners.

Is the size of pellet changeable ?

You can choose the nozzle diameter to decide a pellet O.D. The length of pellet can be adjusted by changing the revolving speed of a cutter.
