Dx strand pelletizer for plastic pellet production
Reduce operational noise while precision-cutting a wide array of thermoplastic strands into uniform pellets, ensuring high throughput and efficient integration into existing production lines.
Pelletizes and Cuts Polymers into Uniform Pellets
The DX Strand Pelletizers from Bay Plastics Machinery are designed to transform a variety of polymers—including polypropylene, polyethylene, and polyamides—into uniform pellets efficiently. This compact machine boasts an anti-flyback cutting chamber that provides precise cuts and eases noise reduction during operation. Featuring a variable frequency drive motor, the DX Strand Pelletizers support high-speed cutting and pelletizing with throughputs from 5,150 to 10,305 kg/hr, depending on the material. Typically used in plastics and polymer manufacturing, this equipment is ideal for industries like automotive, packaging, and construction.
The machine integrates seamlessly into continuous processes, utilizing a stainless steel lower feedroll driven by change gears in the rotor for enhanced control. The DX design also allows for easy on-line maintenance with a sound-dampening system and accessible cutting head for quick changes.
Bay Plastics Machinery offers numerous rotor configurations, including replaceable segment and helical designs, constructed from materials like tool steels and stellite tipped for increased durability and longevity. Compliant with sound safety measures, the DX Strand Pelletizers feature corrosion-resistant parts and a robust design that simplifies cleaning and maintenance, minimizing downtime in demanding manufacturing environments. Customization capabilities are available to tailor the equipment to specific production demands and materials.
