"The launch of the EV 92-220 marks not only a technological milestone but a statement of intents, a commitment to transforming waste into value at scale" Santella concludes.
Continuous Improvement & New Developments: New Evacuation & Dedusting Systems
Along with its state-of-the-art granulator design, CMG Granulators is introducing a brand-new development: the new range of evacuation, dedusting and powder containment system solutions. The unit is the largest of the category and can evacuate, convey, dedust an amount of regrind of up to 7.000 kg/h. The entire new range of the so called Regrind Evac Systems, starts at a capacity of 200 kg/h and, through a selection of 10 different sizes, reaches the impressive capacity of 7.000 kg/h.
he new Evac Systems operate under full vacuum, meaning the regrind material is evacuated from the granulator and is gently conveyed to a cyclone receiver and through a dedusting chamber, all of that under negative pressure. The advantages of using negative pressure are several, from not generating any dust or small particles by friction against the conveying pipe walls, to avoiding the impact against the blower impeller blades, utilized on conventional blow-through evac systems. The regrind is then deposited in a storage bin, gaylord or big-bag while the powdery air is handled by a purposely designed automatic self-cleaning filter unit.
New G55 Line: High Capacity, Robustness, Precision
CMG launches the new G55 granulator line, for high-capacity applications.
Many are the very innovative and unique attributes of the new series and all contribute to obtaining the highest degree of productivity, regrind quality (homogeneous particle dimensions and absence of dust), efficiency of operation, cleanest environment and the lowest TCO.
The standard configurations of the new series cover capacities starting from 700 kg/h all the way up to 1.300 kg/h. The new G55 Line is made of two models: G55-90 and G55-120.
The line features integral sound enclosure and a very innovative feed hopper design to accommodate the widest variety of shapes and dimensions for the parts to grind.
All models operate in high-efficiency conditions, all are equipped with EISA premium-efficiency motors and can have AMP controls (Adaptive Motor Power).
Energy utilization is 25 Wh/kg vs the + 50 Wh/kg and more of conventional solutions.
Purpose designed GT line for thermoforming
CMG Granulators introduces a newly designed granulator series for in-line scrap recycling, suitable for sheet, skeletal sheet and reject parts grinding.
The new GT series comprises four models, suitable for small to medium capacities, to cover applications ranging from 200 through to 1.000 kg/h.
The signature feature of the GT series from CMG Granulators is the blade set up design: the rotor blades are positioned at a high degree of inclination, 50°, in respect to the bed blade, so to guarantee the best cutting precision, the highest dimensional homogeneity of the regrind, the lowest sound emissions and absence of powder.
The cutting chamber is “bolt & dowel” assembled, does not utilize cast or welded component and all parts are machined to obtain the highest precision of assembly to the 100th of millimetre.
20 Wh/kg is the small amount of energy that a CMG granulator uses, compared to over 40 Wh/kg typical for conventional unit.
All the GT models are low profile and sound enclosed, so to be positioned right underneath the finished product conveyor belt and to keep the production environment the quietest possible.
ET series: extrusion solutions for recycling processes
CMG Granulators presents the ET2 configuration applicable to a vast range of models to recycle the trimmings from the extrusion line at the source of them.
The high precision of assembly of the cutting chamber allows the granulation of the thinnest trimmings, obtaining the highest degree of regrind quality (homogeneous particle dimensions and absence of dust), efficiency of operation, ease of cleaning and the best application flexibility.
New high precision granulator series G17
CMG launches a new series of small size beside the press granulators with connotates of high caliber.
The very innovative and unique attributes of such new series are several and all contribute to obtaining the highest degree of productivity, regrind quality (homogeneous particle dimensions and absence of dust), efficiency of operation and the best application flexibility.
In its standard configuration the G17 granulators are applicable to processes of injection moulding and of blow-moulding.
In the ET1 or ET2 configuration, they are suitable for extrusion applications.
The granulation capacity range is from 5 kg/h up to 90 kg/h.
Purpose designed screen-less granulators SL series for highly technical injection moulding
CMG launches a new series of low-speed screen-less granulators with innovative and unique attributes, all contributing to obtaining the highest degree of regrind quality (homogeneous particle dimensions and absence of dust), efficiency of operation, ease of cleaning and the best application flexibility.
The new SL range consists of four models, for capacities going from 5 kg/h up to 30 kg/h.
The new SL granulators by CMG are designed to produce the most homogeneous regrind shape and dimensions, without any dust.
The rotor cutters perform a fine and precise cut of the parts to regrind and do not fracture or crash them as conventional screen-less granulators do.
The sector grinding elements are available in three different sizes, to obtain the most adequate regrind size for the injection process.
The great advantage of dimensionally adequate regrind is most appreciated when the SL granulator is coupled with small tonnage injection moulding machines.
The SL granulators produce regrind having dimensions comparable to the virgin pellet.
