Drop Pelletizing System / Drop Pelletizer
The DROPPO® drop pelletizing system from Automatik Plastics Machinery is designed to produce uniform dust-free spherical pellets. The cooling and solidification process may use air, nitrogen or water – thus offering maximum flexibility to the customer.
Application
DROPPO® drop pelletizing systems are ideally suited for low viscosity melts and liquids with viscosity less than 500 mPas such as:
- Plastic preproducts, e.g. dimethylterephthalate, bisphenol A, maleic anhydride, urea
- Low-viscosity plastics, e.g. PET
- Additives for the plastics industry, e.g. light and heat stabilizers, lubricants and surfactants
- Active ingredients for the flavor and food industry, e.g. encapsulated products
Operating throughputs of up to 1,500 kg/h may be attained. Multiple drop process units may be combined into a single system for higher throughputs.
