Universal Machinery Features
Every machine Granutec manufactures incorporates several standard features, built-in to assure trouble-free operation and safety. These include:
- Fast, Easy On-Line Servicing and Maintenance
A simple hinged feed hopper and screen cradle open quickly for fast, easy cleaning and maintenance without removal from the granulator’s location on the floor.
- Tangential Feed Cutting Chamber
Directing the scrap into the rotor’s downstroke, and into the double scissors cutting action of the rotor and the bed knives. The positive feed reduces flyback and eliminates the bouncing of material scrap.
- Engineered for Quiet Operation
All standard granulators feature noise reduction and sound dampening material on the hopper.
- Meets All OSHA Electrical Standards
Factory wired utilizing magnetic start motors, with 115 volt control circuit, mounted in a NEMA 12 enclosure.
- Magnetic Starter and 115V Control Circuit
Hopper and screen cradle are electrically interlocked with a time delay safety mechanism. Emergency stop button at feed station for immediate shut down.
- Double Scissors Cutting Action
A high shear mount of counter rotor and bed knives of D-2 high carbon, high chrome tool steel produces a clean, precise cutting action for increased throughput and knife life. Also, this feature assures that a quality granulate is produced, while reducing power consumption.
