Superior cutting action

The rotor knives are mounted according to the latest V-cut technology. Contrary to the older cross cut action, the V-cut action conveys material to the centre of the rotor thus avoiding sticking and wear at the side walls.

Simple knife setting

All of the knives, rotor and stator, are preset outside of the granulator in a supplied bench-top jig. Awkward adjustments inside the machine are no longer necessary. Knives are manufactured from heavy duty tool steel and can be resharpened many times.

Specially developed 
deflector wedge

A removeable adaptor carrying a third stator knife, termed the deflector wedge, can be installed to alter the infeed cross section and the first cutting point of the granulator as required. This simple installation option allows the machine greatest versatility.

Well thought-out 
housing design

The housing design is divided across the centre line and the upper part can be opened hydraulically (GS 350/500 and 400/600 manually). Easily exchanged wear plates bolted to the side cheeks ensure long life. The screen is held in position by a hinged cradle and is easily accessible.

Robust bearing assembly

The extremely robust pedestal bearing housings are mounted outside the machine and separate from the cutting chamber to prevent dust and dirt ingress into the oversized bearings. This ensures a long life and minimum maintenance.

High operational reliability

All granulators are manufactured to current European Union machine requirements and are fully CE certified. Safety of the machines is guaranteed by, for example, time-delay bolts with electric limit switches, hydraulic non-return safety valves etc.

3-blade rotor

This open style rotor has large spaces between the individual blade rows thus allowing material to drop into the rotor. With the tangential inlet of the spacious housing and the open style rotor, material is aggressively grabbed and cut thus making this rotor/housing combination ideal for the granulation of hollow objects such as bottles, crates and drums as well as large bulky materials.

5-blade rotor

This semi-closed style rotor has much smaller spaces between the blade rows thus preventing much material from dropping into the rotor. Combined with the removeable deflection wedge, which restricts the inlet opening and moves the initial cutting point higher in the machine, there is consequently a less aggressive cutting action meaning no blockage or rotor stall even under the most extreme conditions. These massive, extremely robust rotors are ideally suited for difficult, heavy duty applications such as start-up lumps and head waste, thick walled pipes, heavy sheets etc.

Guillotine rotor

The guillotine rotor is specially designed as an open and friction free type, having no central shaft but where the blades are supported between two end plates. This rotor type is therefore ideally suited to the processing of temperature sensitive materials such as natural and synthetic rubber, waxes and products containing bitumen. An additional flywheel can be fitted to increase the cutting torque.
