Lab-Line 100 |
Underwater pelletizing for lab operation from 2 to 200 kg/h
Our LabLine 100 pelletizer system is the ideal machine for small scale extrusion and polymer processing lines. The LabLine 100, which features simple controls and a compact design, is made up of a pelletizer, a pellet dryer and a process water treatment system. Commencing from a throughput of 2 kg/hour, all common plastics such as PE, PP, ABS and in particular products like PA6, PA6.6, PBT, PET and PPO can be processed and pelletized. The system can be supplied with either of two different pelletizers; the type A 30 or the type A 300. The type A 30 pelletizer has a die plate diameter of 30 mm and is suitable for a material throughput of from 2 - 80 kg/hour. The type A 300 has a die plate diameter of 75 mm and is suitable for a material throughput of up to 200 kg/hour. The quick-change die plate is designed to suit the particular material being processed. A range of different hole diameters is available.
Adjusting blade pressureThe micrometric hand adjustment guarantees a precise adjustment of the blades in relation to the die plate. This assures a long life span for both the blades and die plate. As an optional extra, the pelletizer A 300 can be equipped with a fully automatic hydraulic feed system to adjust the blade pressure.
Drying and water system
The rotor unit of the LabLine 100’s pellet dryer may be quickly removed by operating the mechanical lifting device supplied. This enables a rapid cleanup of the dryer. The one-piece cylindrical screen cover which surrounds the rotor may be removed for cleaning. The integrated process water filtration is also designed for easy removal.
Process water filtration
Any fines are collected on a large woven wire mesh screen. This mesh screen can be completely removed and replaced to ensure no cross contamination colour batches. Pellets are cut at the die plate, within the water box, and are transported to the centrifugal dryer where most of the water is removed. The water is then filtered and returned to the water box. Meanwhile pellets are transported to the dryer outlet and exit with low residual moisture for immediate packing.
