LEAFLET Compact UWC unit “SDC” The Japan Steel Works, Ltd. Plastics Machinery Business Division Pellet cooling water & dryer unit ・All the devices such as the pump, cooler, centrifugal dryer, exhaust fan and PCW tank are mounted on a skid as a compact unit. The operation can be immediately started after connecting the cable and The UWC(Under Water Cutting) is an efficient method for automation the piping with UWC unit and utilities. and quality stabilization of the pelletizing system. JSW have supplied ・A centrifugal dryer of small-size and easy cleaning has been wide-range of the UWC units from the laboratory use to the large-size developed. The cover is lightweight and easily removed/attached. You pelletizing system for industrial plants. can reach every corner inside the dryer through the wide opening. As JSW has developed a smaller and more sophisticated UWC unit and the interior parts can be easily removed, you can clean inside of the a more compact and easy-cleaning pellet cooling water & dryer unit dryer quickly and safely. incorporating the latest technologies for small-size　machines. ・Sloping screen installed in the PCW tank removes polymer particles from PCW and it can be easily removed without stopping the operation. UWC (Under Water Cutting) unit SDC (Smart Direct-drive Cutter) ・The automatic cutter position adjustment mechanism can eliminate And a back-up screen is also installed to prevent polymer particles from entering into the tank during the cleaning. ・Through the sight glass installed at the inlet of agglomerate catcher, you can check the slurry flowing into the centrifugal dryer. a manual setting of cutter shaft.The cutter position is adjusted with a constant forward pressure of the cutter shaft. As a consequence, the wear speed of cutter blades can be controlled and you can expect a longer life of the cutter blades. ・The cutter holder with self-alignment function can eliminate a troublesome alignment adjustment work. You can ensure a stable pellet shape in a long-term operation.(Patented in Japan, the U.S. and European countries） ・ The one-touch clamp system allows quick and easy connection/ disconnection between the cutter unit and the water chamber. ・The die is heated by electric heating with cartridge heaters, which does not require other heating equipment such as a hot oil unit. Pellet cooling water & dryer unit ・ The hanging type cutter unit allows a much larger working space on the floor. You can also select a compact carriage type as needed. ・As your option, SDC can be additionally equipped with “Auto- Main Specification tuning system of the cutter forward pressure” . With this system, an optimum cutter forward pressure can be set during operation and it will allow a longer life of the die and cutter blades. Cutter motor power (kW) Japan Steel Works, Ltd.
