Pelletizer for temperature and shear-sensitive plastics

Optimize your production line efficiency with a pelletizing solution designed to handle temperature and shear-sensitive plastics, ensuring precise control and consistent quality across diverse applications.

Pelletizes and Cuts Shear-Sensitive Plastics

The Eccentric Pelletizer EGR from Coperion is engineered for precision in processing temperature and shear-sensitive plastics. Featuring an ergonomically designed knife rotor, it efficiently pelletizes materials like soft PVC and elastomer compounds used in electrical conduit pipes and insulated wire coatings. Connected directly to the ES-A single shaft discharge screw, it ensures consistent material flow and optimal pressure build-up before the die plate. The pelletizer boasts adjustable knife speeds for precise control over pellet length and integrates seamlessly with existing production lines in continuous, automated operations. Its quick-release die plate simplifies maintenance, and the optional water mist system minimizes pellet sticking. With a range of motor power options and customizable die hole configurations, the EGR adapts to varied processing needs, making it ideal for industries such as bioplastics and PVC processing.
