What Is the Use of Granulator
​
Introduction:-
Industrial waste has been increasing at an alarming rate, even with the modern Shredder the particle size are considered bigger. That is when the usage of granulator machine comes into existence.
What is a granulator?
A granulator, in general, is the widely used machinery in the waste reduction. In simple, a granulator machine is an open rotator knife design which works at a high speed to give particles of size about one-eighth of the original size. This is often misunderstood as a Shredder or as a grinder. They all work on the same principle but the resulting output will be better in granulator when compared to others.
How does it differ from others?
One of the major and considerable differences is their design. Nearly three fourth of the granulator machine has an open rotator model which gives better processing and cooling to the material.
These are well suited for shredding the plastic materials such as bottles, car plastic accessories, and parts. Though they are also used in other waste management as an after treatment process. These granulator machine has various size and shape.
In recycling the plastic waste:-
As we all know, there are only a few ways to treat to plastic, one among them is reusing them by changing the look and structure by recycling them. This granulator machine helps in that process. It reduces the size of the plastic and helps in making the recycling process easier. Based on their size and mode of action there are various types of granulator available such as,
-
Disc granulator
-
Drum granulator
-
Mixer granulator and
-
tumbling granulator
Conclusion:-
These granulators are not only used in waste management but also in the pharmaceutical industry mainly in the production of tablets and capsules.
