Granulating Materials - Recycling & LEV Equipment

FAQs

What is a LEV test?

It is a health and safety assessment of Local Exhaust Ventilation components to ensure dust, fume and vapour aren’t escaping and poisoning or harming staff and employees,  operators or anyone in the vicinity. Read our LEV Testing FAQs here.

What are the benefits of planned maintenance?

LEV equipment is designed to protect the health of the workforce, proper planned maintenance and servicing is vital if you want to ensure that it continuously works as well today as it did on the day it was first installed.  Ventilation systems can often have their lifespan extended if maintenance is regular, which is often just a case of pre-planning. Read more.

What are the risks of not extracting dust?

Dust extraction systems are essential within a factory or manufacturing set up, in order to protect the health and well-being of employees. Ventilation is key where health and safety is concerned. Find out more here.

How can I check the health of my shredder?

Checking the health of your industrial shredder can be quick if you know what to do and can help to elongate its life span. Find out how here.

What are the benefits of shredder operator training?

Shredders are often sizeable bits of machinery, but even if they are smaller models it is not to be forgotten that they are dangerous bit of kit if not used properly. When they are used by an operator that has had trained and in a safe way, shredders can assist in easily reducing the size of large and otherwise useless bits of plastic, wood, aluminium, textile and rubber.

WSM Granulator Series

The WSM Series of granulators are suitable for processing of a wide range of plastics, producing high quality granulate, including blow-moulded materials such as PET bottles, PE/PP bottles, canisters and buckets. In addition the WSM series can be specified to shred resistant materials like thick wall pipes. Either as a stand-alone solution or as stage of a two part process (downstream of a primary shredder) the WSM is a straightforward and economical size reduction solution. The various sizes and different versions make it possible to match the WSM to your specific material and throughput requirements....

LP – SR Granulator Series

The SR/LP series have been designed for size reduction of full length, up to 6.0m long, profiles and pipes, without the need to pre-cut material into shorter pieces. Generally LP versions will be used for PVC profiles, with the specially designed rotor grabbing and pulling material into the cutting chamber, while the SR version are better suited for the most demanding applications such as extremely thick-wall PVC, PP and PE pipes to achieve optimum throughput, through an enclosed hopper to ensure safe and reliable size reduction....

SM Series Granulators

The SM Series of granulators should be considered an all-round granulator. Designed for general size reduction applications for such materials as start-up lumps, massive purgings, large profiles, voluminous hollow parts and general, thick-walled, plastic scrap. The SM Series rotor and stator knives are arranged counter angle to each other to produce a true scissor cutting action. The result is a cleaner, more uniform granulate with minimal heat build-up and minimal energy consumption and sound output....

SX Granulator Series

The SX granulator series are designed for extreme high throughput applications including film, banding (tangled), tape (bundled), PP big bags, crates, hollow containers and BOPP/BOPET/PP on-line and off-line film extrusions. The SX Series can achieve up to 15 tonnes throughput per hour when utilising an 800mmø x 2,000mm wide rotor drive by a 315 kW drive train (dependent upon screen size)....
