Electronically Adjustable Pelletizer

The EAC pelletizer for underwater pelletizing offers fully automated control of blade adjustment, positioning, and monitoring, resulting in maximum blade and die face life. Monitoring and adjustment processes are programmed in the Gala PLC controlled system. An optional integrated blade position measuring system for unterwater pelletizer is available, providing indication of blade position and warning of the need for a blade change.

Manually Adjustable Pelletizer

The Manually Adjustable Pelletizer (MAP), a underwater pelletizing application, features a manual adjusting wheel to position the blades against the die plate. This simple blade adjustment design of the underwater pelletizer provides visual blade wear indication and maximum control of blade position. The unique design of the axial advance system replaces the need for a bearing housing assembly. The MAP design requires only one long life thrust bearing for accurate adjustments.

Pellet Processing Systems for the Plastics Industry

Gala’s LPU® Laboratory Underwater Pelletizing System is specifically designed for laboratory developmental work, market sampling, and light pellet production on materials such as PE, PP, ABS, PA 6, PA 6.6, PET, PBT, PPO, and more. The system is designed for pelletizing rates up to 100 kg/h (20–220 lbs/hr), depending on the material for underwater pelletizing processes.

Underwater Pelletizing System for frequent product and color changes up to 500 kg per hour

The PEARLOFLEX SYSTEM® for underwater pelletizing has been specifically designed to process polymers and thermoplastics and produces first-class spherical pellets. This extremely efficient and flexible underwater pelletizing system is applied in the production of compounds, masterbatches, engineeringg plastics, recyclate, organic and wood polymer composites, thermoplastic elastomers, and more.

Underwater pelletizers for highly profitable throughput rates of up to 36,000 kg per hour

The PEARLO® underwater pelletizer has been designed to process a wide range of polymers and thermoplastics. PEARLO® works perfectly with our process water system PURO® and pellet dryer CYCLO® and produces first-class spherical pellets. 

Unlike conventional extrusion in a water bath, the Strand Cooling Belt PFS does not require manual threading of  strands. Strands are deposited directly on the conveyor belt and automatically conveyed to the strand pelletizer. The cooling is done by special air nozzles with high cooling capacity.

The widely tried and proven dry-cut strand pelletizer produces top quality cylindrical or micro-pellets, which are ideal for further downstream processing. Its compact design makes the strand pelletizer very suitable for lab applications. The variable system configuration enables a perfect adaptation to the product being processed with high flexibility when changing products

Underwater strand pelletizing system for cost-effective production – P-USG

The P-USG underwater strand pelletizing systems made by MAAG Automatik have been particularly designed for both the production of virgin polymers with lower throughput rates and for recycling applications. The simple design of the strand pelletizing machine stands for engineeringg reduced to the essentials while featuring high process stability and pellet quality.

Pelletizer for dry cutting of strands for premixes, mixtures and extrusions

The Bullet series was created to combine the cutting geometry of the Conair 304 with the innovative features of the Scheer "E-Series" pelletizer. The combination of two market leaders in the basic design results in a spring dry cut pelletizer that is easier and faster to clean and repair.

Underwater and dry cut pelletizing system – Dry Cut “WD” Series

The Dry Cut “WD” Series Waterslide pelletizing systems and dry cut strand pelletizing system have been developed to allow for a wide variety of materials to be run with little or no operator assistance. Strand conditioned water is used to improve pellet quality.

Strand pelletizing systems for utmost flexibility during production

The dry cut strand pelletizers of the PRIMO E series are characterized by maximum flexibility. Variable system configurations allow for optimal matching with your specific production requirements and also provide utmost flexibility in terms of product changeover. The cylindrical pellets convince with their consistently high quality and are idealy suitable for further processing.

Strand pelletizing and dry cut pelletizing for polymer manufacturing – S3500 Series

The S3500 Series Strand Pelletizer has been engineered to provide easy, tool-less entry into the stainless steel cutting chamber for strand pelletizing and dry cut pelletizing. The “Slide” Series pelletizers are designed to substantially reduce maintenance and cleaning time for polymer manufacturers. The front section of these plastic pelletizers is mounted on a linear slide mechanism allowing access into the cutting chamber. Maintenance and cleaning of the feedrolls, doctor blade, and bed knife are quick and easy.
