MAAG

Centrifugal Dryer for Recycled Products

Pellet dryer designs are based on current product rate testing. Gala has been conducting extensive testing on our centrifugal recycled plastic pellet dryers at full production rates since early 2007.

MAAG/Gala is the market leader for high capacity dryers. Large resin producers have the need for high capacity, continuous operation pellet dryers. By utilizing patented processes and innovative equipment designs, MAAG/Gala is capable to manufacture centrifugal pellet dryers with outputs up to 150 metric tons per hour (330,000 lbs/hr). Design innovations such as segmented rotor designs, wedge wire rotor screens, leak proof bearing seals in combination with high quality steel options assure our customers highest reliability. All MAAG/Gala pellet dryers are supplied with door timed interlocks and local power disconnect for operator safety.

Energy-efficient drying with minimal required space

The CENTRO series of dryers is suitable for use with both underwater pelletizing and underwater strand pelletizing systems. Well thoughtout and highly accessible components, such as the core rotor device, serve to provide excellent operating characteristics and efficient servicing.

Self-Cleaning

The Gala Self-Cleaning Pellet Dryer is designed to achieve a high degree of self-cleaning which will reduce the otherwise common downtimes to a minimum. In most cases, this centrifugal pellet dryer does not need to be cleaned and nor opened to prepare the system for a color change. 

All members of the EASY ACCESS centrifugal pellet dryer series from Gala offer wide doors which permit easy, convenient and safe access for internal cleaning and maintenance. All Gala pellet dryers are supplied with door timed interlocks and local power disconnect for operator safety in polymer manufacturing.

Ambient pulverizer and color pulverizer – COLORex Color Mixer

The COLORex Color Mixer is used to mix product in-line with a ambient pulverizer and color pulverizer to eliminate the cleaning time of a central mixer. It can also be used off-line with a loader system and multiple feeders. The mixer

Disc mill perfomance with reduced operation costs for pulverizer disc technology

Our technically sophisticated systems of disc mills use liquid nitrogen to cool down a feed material prior to and/or during milling to either help prevent its melting or decomposition, or achieve embrittlement in the pulverizer discs. Because each product is unique, throughput rates will vary.

The plastic cryogenic pulverizer with the ideal solution for in-house production 

The Reduction Engineering pulverizer 85XLP, with its compact design, is the perfect fit for the medium throughput range or the ideal solution for in-house production. This unit of the cryogenic plastic pulverizer, with its integrated PLC controls, assures fully automatic production at a high level with very little operating effort. As with all Reduction Engineering pulverizers, this air-cooled pulverizer incorporates our state-of-the-art technology that facilitates quick clean-downs and change-over times.

The plastic cryogenic pulverizer is manufactured for cryogenic operation 

The REX tech, our lab scale pulverizer, makes sampling and trials for R&D fast and simple. Depending on the selected equipment, the REX tech can be cooled with ambient air or nitrogen. This versatile cryogenic plastic pulverizer can service a wide variety of applications in which top-quality sample powders are required. Almost anything can be trialed on this unit – engineered resins, rubber, adhesives, pharmaceuticals, and food grades on the lab pulverizer.

Compact, fully automatic pellet sampling unit

Whether raw material or end product, modern industry often produces large quantities of bulk material. Regular analyses are required to ensure that pellets meet your quality standards. The BATCH SAMPLER is a compact, fully automatic system taking pellet samples by means of a suction lance at the end of the classifier.

Innovative pellet sampling unit for laboratory applications

The AUTO PELLET SAMPLER is designed for the lab or any other designated place where pellet samples from the production are needed. The fully automatic sampling system transports a container specially developed to collect pellets from the classifying sieve to the measuring device – overcoming several floors or distances of up to 300 m is no obstacle.

Efficient process control and color measurement on the pellets

The COLOR CONTROL system was developed for online color measurement directly on the pellet and is one of the most modern online color measuring systems in the world.
