High Quality Strand Granulating Line

High Quality Strand Granulating Line

PROCESS FLOW:

The strand cutting granulating process is one of the most common application for granulating. It is widely used for several kinds of material. The basic pelletizing process goes through the following path:

CHARACTERS OF THE STRAND AND CUTTING GRANULATING LINE

Because of the simple structure of the plastic granulating line, the equipment investment is lower in comparison to other pelletizing solutions such as water ring granulating line and under water granulating line. The low equipment price with relative high performance is a significant advantage.

The simple structure can also provide customer a easier maintenance operation and lower repair cost.

The concept for extrusion, cooling and pelletizing is relative numerous, the single screw granulating line can fit almost all kinds of polymer.

However, the potential of strand broke could influence the production capacity and require relatively more human resource for production.

The automation grad for the whole process is relatively lower than other granulating method.

Totally understanding the strand pelletizing process is conducive to figuring out whether the process fits the production condition or not.

As a universal granulating method, the strand pelletizing has following advantages:

• low equipment cost

• easy maintenance

• suitable for most of the materials

Disadvantages are listed in comparison with other pelletizing methods such as water ring or under water pelletizing :

• Relatively low automation grad

• high energy consumption

• more human resource needed
