Water Ring Pelletizing Systems

Filtec GRO Features List

Expanded Applications Range

• Straight-through flow to the die streamlines processing of temperature sensitive materials
• Eliminates hang-up and degradation areas and allows fast die purge for material & color changes
• Equalizes melt pressure and temperature distribution for highly uniform die flow and pellet geometry

Adjustable Flex Blade Design

• Allows automatic or adjustable blade contact force on the die plate
• Compensates for material viscosity and cutting characteristics

Uninhibited Water Flow Nozzle

• Open (¾” wide) annular vortex nozzle eliminates pellet trap found on older style water ring pelletizers
• Turbulent rotational axis helps prevent pellet agglomeration by virtually eliminating pellet bounce inside the chamber

Dry Die Face

• Simplifies startup - Insensitive to melt flow disruptions
• No die hole freeze-off
• Minimizes die heat loss

Easy Blade Change & Die Plate Access

• Slide-away pellet chamber eliminates need to move the entire pelletizer for die access
• Quick clamp release creates watertight seal and simple connection
• Chamber is position interlocked to prevent start-up when disengaged
• Simple knife attachment to cutter hub

Space Saver Design

• Unitized system saves valuable floor space and simplifies system access.
• System can be separated if Tank / Dryer relocation is desired (specified prior to order placement).
