ES Series
Features > Options > Specifications > Pricing
The ES Series high performance granulators are designed with years of engineering knowledge to maximize the performance of the machines. They can solve almost any plastic granulation challenge.
The durable welded steel housing and removable deflector wedge make these granulators suitable for even the most demanding granulation tasks. From the open 3-blade aggressive bite rotor to the heavy-duty semi-closed 9-blade rotor, the ES Series offers a complete range of rotor configurations for whatever the application demands.
All machines in the ES Series produce a high-quality granulate, whether it be from injection molded articles, sprues, pipes, profiles, sheets, film, or start-up and purgings. The machines have a long service life, and they are economical, reliable, and easy to clean.
EconoGrind also offers a wide range of necessary accessories, such as blowers, vacuum takeaway systems, conveyors, metal detectors, and fine separators. The ES Series is also available with integral soundproofing.
Features
Superior Cutting Action. The rotor knives have been designed with the latest V-cut engineering technology. Unlike the older cross-cut action for rotor knives, the V-cut configuration conveys the material toward the center of the rotor, reducing or eliminating material build-up at the side walls and unnecessary wear.
Simple Knife Setting. Both rotor and bed knives are pre-set outside the granulator cutting chamber in a supplied bench-top fixture. Awkward adjustments inside the machine are no longer necessary. All the knives are manufactured from heavy-duty D2 tool steel and can be re-sharpened numerous times.
Specially Developed Deflector Wedge. A removable adapter carrying a third bed knife, referred to as the deflector wedge, can be installed to alter the infeed cross-section and the first cutting point of the granulator as required. This simple installation option allows exceptional flexibility.
Convenient Housing Design. The housing design is split at the center line, and the upper half of the cutting chamber can be opened hydraulically. (ES 350/500 and ES 400/600 are manual only.) Easily exchanged wear plates bolted to the side plates ensure long life, and the screen is held in position by a hinged cradle for easy accessibility.
Robust Bearing Assembly. The extremely durable pedestal bearing housings are mounted outside the machine away from the cutting chamber to prevent dust and dirt contamination of the oversized bearings. This ensures long life and minimum maintenance requirements.
