Rapid GranuMATIC

Product catalog summary

Introduction
The Rapid GranuMATIC™ line is a specialized series of shredders developed for efficient recycling of polymer materials. Unlike traditional shredders designed for general waste and wood, these models focus on producing clean, uniformly cut plastic pieces using advanced technology.

Key Features

PolyCUT Technology: This technology combines knife cutting angle, cutting speed, and sequential cutting to provide a smooth cut with low stress, reducing motor power requirements and energy consumption.
FlexiPUSH System: A self-regulating pneumatic system that absorbs vibrations and mechanical stress, enhancing efficiency in tough applications.
Screenless Operation: The GranuMATIC™ can operate without a screen, although an optional screen is available for smaller chip sizes.
Easy Maintenance: The design allows easy access to knives and the machine's interior for quick cleaning and maintenance.
Material Evacuation: A high-built stand facilitates material evacuation via band or screw conveyor.

Applications

Blow Moulding: Suitable for large and small items, with an optional top pusher to ensure material is cut efficiently.
Injection Moulding: Handles large lumps, central granulation of defects, and sprues.
Extrusion: Processes loose film, rolls, lumps, profiles, and pipes, with rotor cooling available for temperature-sensitive materials.

Specifications
The GranuMATIC™ series includes Compact, Extend, and Wide models, each with varying power supply, knife count, rotor speed, weight, and throughput capabilities. Optional features include top pushers, rotor cooling, and double knife rows.

Conclusion
The Rapid GranuMATIC™ line offers a dedicated solution for plastic recycling, emphasizing low energy consumption, minimal dust and noise, and high performance. It is designed to convert heavy lumps into uniformly sized chips efficiently.

From large volume parts to heavy duty lumps Until now, shredders have been designed for multi purpose use, mainly for size reduction of garbage and wood. The new Rapid GranuMATIC™ line has been exclusively developed for efcient recycling of polymer materials. The line’s unique technology is the result of Rapid’s many years of experience of granulators and older types of shredders for polymer materials. The GranuMATIC™ models are optimized to produce clean plastic by truly cutting even the hardest materials smoothly into uniform pieces. Rapid’s PolyCUT technology also offers energy-saving benets....

Easy cleaning/access Cleaning the machine for new materials or colors is easy. Removing a single plate gives instant access to the machine’s interior. Screenless operation As the material is cut into uniform pieces, the GranuMATIC™ operates without a screen, although screen can be installed as an option when smaller chip sizes are required. Easy maintenance All knives, rotating and xed, are easy accessible. The rotating knives are reversible and are of cassette type, which simplies maintenance. The front opening makes it possible to access the heart of the machine fast and easily. Easy material...
