Granulators

… which simply downsize economically

The granulator is a single-rotor crushing machine, on the rotor of which there is a certain number of knife blocks, which crush the material in question by rotating on one or two counter-knife bars (stators).

The material is crushed in the circulation until it is small enough to pass a screen placed under the rotor. The target grain size of the output material can thus be determined via the diameter of the screen perforation.

With Artech granulators, you bring high-tech into your company that can give you the decisive competitive edge – in quality, reliability and operating costs. Find out more today and let us convince you of the tangible benefits.

Models

The typical application of the granulators is the size reduction of the starting material to particle sizes between approx. 10 and 30 mm. Each comminution puts the stator knives in particular to a hard test. These have to be changed frequently in comparable granulators. Our innovation from the field: The adjustment range of the knives is a full 30 mm instead of 5 mm – up to 6 times more! This significantly reduces operating costs, as downtimes are greatly reduced – without compromising output quality and reliability.

Inspiring technology

Different materials require different processing systems. Especially the growing variety of materials in the recycling industry requires individual solutions. The respective requirements for plant availability and the degree of automation must also be taken into account.

Rotary shears

…who can really grip

Rotor shears provide pre-shredding of the input material in the first step of the recycling process. From tires to electronic scrap to document shredding, these powerful machines with outputs ranging from 2×22 kW to 2×160 kW can process a wide variety of recyclable materials. An in-house value creation.

The quick-change slitter shaft system developed and patented by Artech allows two completely clamped slitter shafts (consisting of shafts, cutting knives, bearing housings, bearings, seals and bushings) to be inserted into or removed from the slitter unit. This is done by simply loosening the screw connections of the coupling and the front-mounted bearing plates. This allows the slitter shafts to be easily lifted out of the cutting unit and replaced after removing the bearing plates. This neither destabilizes the cutting unit nor involves the gearbox, which results in an enormous time and safety advantage.

Take pre-shredding to a new level with rotary shears. Robust. Reliable. Efficient. And equipped with the best guarantees and references. But above all, the deep product range with a variety of options, outputs and cutterbar dimensions make the decision particularly easy.

Advantages of rotary shear

  • High throughput due to optimum machine design
  • Even the most difficult materials can be processed through the highest torques
  • The solid construction and an interference detection system exclude shaft breakage. This provides excellent machine protection
  • The production of the shaft sets is made from high quality materials
  • The gearboxes are designed with a high power reserve.
  • The gear units are protected against overload by a rubber buffer bearing on both sides
  • Blade shaft quick-change system
  • Robust construction
  • High availability
