The Strand Pelletizing System WS is designed for the production of thermo-plastic pellets. The Pelletizing-System is suitable for operations with Reactors, Autoclaves and Extruders, provided that a strand-die is used. A start-up device attached to the die-head, allows an automated operation of the system. The Pelletizing System can be operated from start to shut-down without manual operator assistance.

Advantages of the WS System

  • Automated start-up
  • Re-threading of broken strands
  • Dust-free pellets
  • Low operating noise level
  • Compact and space saving design
  • Cut pellets are reintroduced to the trough water for additional cooling
