17-SERIES MODELS 1724, 1736, 1748 AND 1760 - 1

Powerful Design For Tough Applications Conair's Viper Granulator 17-Series granulators are versatile, rugged and designed for central or machine-side recycling of tough, injection molded parts; bulky blow-molded containers; film; sheet; and extruded parts and scrap. These heavy-duty granulators feature two styles of cutting chamber geometry from super tangential to tangential, allowing you to process virtually any kind of scrap. Easy pre-adjustment of the gap between rotor and fixed bed knives results in increased throughputs and high-quality, uniform regrind. Now standard with the "SG" (Smart Granulator) HMI touch screen control. Open Access for Easy Cleaning and Maintenance The robust 17-Series offers a drop-down screen cradle for tool-free chamber access and easy screen removal and rotation. A three-blade (or five-blade), slant-knife open rotor provides scissor-cutting action for fast, efficient processing of even the toughest jobs. Powered opening and closing of the feeding hopper is standard on the 17-Series. An integrated safety switch prevents accidental powering of the granulator while the feed hopper is open. Hopper styles to suit all application needs including custom, hand feed, sheet feed, profile feed, roll feed, and conveyor feed. 17-Series options include: high-wear screen and knives, blower evacuation systems, fines removal systems, feed rolls, high-level/highamp alarms, larger horsepower motors, and incline conveyors with and without a metal detector. The state-of-the-art SG HMI control is standard and includes auto start/stop, built-in hour meter, lock/unlock screen, data trending and hopper lift control for exceptional oversight and tracking. ` Quiet operation; simple control 17-Series granulators include soundproofed hoppers on all models; soundproofed base enclosures as standard on models 1724 and 1736, creating the quietest granulator in its class. The SG control gives even novice operators confidence - with intuitive screen design and simple navigation. ` Hardened cutting chamber The hardened cutting chamber provides greater resistance to wear. ` Direct, safe and easy access to machine core Conair's innovative 17-Series cutting chamber features a drop-down screen cradle and removable discharge bin. Complete rotor access greatly simplifies clean out and blade maintenance saving you time and money. Integral safety interlocks prevent accidental operation during service or clean out. ` Greater screen area equals higher throughput with fewer fines Increased rotor and screen contact area reduces heat generation and minimizes fines for best-in-class throughput of higher quality regrind. ` Pre-Adjustable knives with scissor-cutting Provides the ultimate in blade changes. The scissor-cutting knives are pre-set in the included knife setting fixture decreasing the time it takes to replace knives while improving safety and delivering the highest quality regrind. ` Water-cooled cutting chamber Keeping the cutting chamber cool when handling heat sensitive or hot material increases granulate quality while decreasing the risk of downtime associated with screen clogging.

Feeding/Evacuation Configurations Hand Feeding Standard feeding method. Flyback minimized by rugged curtains. Feed tray may be rotated up to close off opening; down to feed scrap. Commonly required for long extruded parts and scrap. Preliminary cutting, folding or breaking of scrap is not required, since feed chute delivers scrap directly to rotor knives. Roll Feeding Forfilm scrap on rolls (IE: film extrusion start-up scrap), feeding is automatically controlled by speed-controlled pinch rollers slaved to the amperage of the granulator drive and/or the closed-loop film reclaim system. Rear...

Feeding/Evacuation Configurations Cyclone Head Feeding For near continuous feeding of tabs and tails, small scrap/parts fed from a blower. Conveyor Feeding Optimized, meter feeding of scrap by a speed-controlled conveyor. Conveyor speed can be linked to granulator drive motor amps. Conveyor can include a metal detector that stops conveying when metal in the scrap is detected. SRB Cyclone Evacuation Fully optimized evacuation by a blower and cyclone system assures the granulator never overfills, while granulate is cooled by the blower's air flow.
