Recycling/Size Reduction
Beside the press granulation and the ability to reintroduce materials into an injection molding machine have a number of advantages. All sprues, cores and rejects can be re-used even without drying.
Colortronic's clean room granulator is the answer for high-quality regrind in sprue, runner, and small part applications.
Good Manufacturing Process (GMP) and medical molding require the elimination of dust in the manufacturing
environment.
The MLS Series light duty shredder is designed for processing injection and extrusion mold startup purge.
It reduces material to approximately 1" to 4" when combined with a Colortronic granulator (stacked 2-
stage or in-line with conveyors), and output size can range from 1/8" to 1/2". The granulator can average
150% of its stated throughputs without heavy power consumption loads (typically seen when using a
granulator alone). The MLS Series standard features and benefits are listed below.
The MMS Series is designed for processing scrap from
wood industries—miscellaneous trim and panel scraps,
furniture, injection and extrusion mold startup purge,
heavy wall parts, paper and cardboard, and film (baled
and loose).
The MPS Series shredders have been developed for the size reduction of pipes up to 51" (1,300mm) in
diameter made from materials such as UPVC, PE, and PP. Pipes up to 29.5 ft (9 m) in length can be shredded
without the need for pre-cutting. The shredder is available with two rotor diameters (39"/56", 980mm/1430mm)
equipped with rotary cutters operating at low speed, ensuring smooth and efficient size reduction of pipes.
The MT500 Series offers superior quality and
performance with ease of accessibility. A safety
interlocked, rear access, hopper door provides hasslefree
cleanout and inspection, while the front hopper
access door completely opens up for quick and easy
maintenance with minimal downtime.
The Colortronic M 65 Series Granulators provide efficient and versatile granulation for a variety of applications.
The M800 Series granulators are designed for efficient beside-the press regrind of reject components from injection molding, blow molding, and extrusion processes. Quiet running and extremely versatile, they can be used with robot feed, conveyor feed or hand feed applications. These sound attenuating granulators are available in three models...M810, 814, and 818. All provide excellent quality regrind with the added advantage of reduced maintenance costs.
The MT1200 Series granulators offer a wide range of capabilities and are ideal for under-the-press or in
front of the press applications. Three models provide various throat sizes - 12x44, 12x56 and 12x74.
Models feature a horsepower range of 20 to 50 HP and throughput capacities of 1800 to 3000 lbs/hour.
Reversible screens are available in various sizes and the complete regrind evacuation is achieved with an
8" blower system. The castered base is portable and low-profile, which allows for under-the-press
positioning.
Colortronic MA Series Auger Fed granulators feature a low profile design with an exclusive screen drawer and hinged lid providing complete chamber access for quick, easy cleanout.
The MS Series Screenless Granulator combines low-speed, energy saving, granulating technology with primary and secondary blades,providing a consistent grind, every time. Uniform regrind flows more consistently into your production and moves easier through your material handling system and molding with fewer rejects. The MS Series offers cutting chamber sizes of 10"x 9", 10.5"x 13.5" and 18.5"x 15.5" with years of reliable, maintenance free service.
Colortronic offers a wide choice of evacuation systems to meet every production requirement. The M Series unique machined, bolted and doweled construction ensures strength and durability. Integrated rotating end discs provide for low-heat granulation for heat-sensitive materials. Double-sealed bearings are lubricated for life.
Colortronic's new MTG 1200 Series beside the press granulators offer a wide range of capabilities to handle the most demanding injection molding, blow molding and extrusion requirements.
Colortronic's MTG 1600 Series Beside the press granulators offer a wide reange of capabilities to handle the most demanding injection molding requirements. With a horsepowere range from 20-40 HP, throughput capacities from 900-1500 lbs/hr, and a wide range of sizes.
Colortronic brings new meaning to the daily grind with the MTG 800/1000 Series beside the press granulators. With its revolutionary design both cleanout and knife adjusting time are dramatically reduced. Less effort is needed to empty the regrind bin, and there is a choice of reduced rotor speeds for uniform, quality regrind. It's designed to increase productivity with unmatched cutting chamber access, increased flexibility, and a lot more strength for added performance.
The MSM 2000 Series is available with three infeed sizes (20"x 42" and 20"x 62") and offers a throughput range from 1800-2600 lbs/hour making it ideal for thermoforming processes, central granulation of blow molded components, and volume processing of scrap from any type of polymer processing operation.
With this series, Colortronic offers its customers a solution to their granulation problems by minimizing part bouncing and optimizing material processing for large bulky parts.
Colortronic's Large Tangential Series granulators feature heavy-duty construction, including an easy access base, which creates a stronger design with easy clean out and servicing.
The MSH Series is designed for heavy duty, high capacity granulation. Ideally suited for applications including heavy extruded purgings, sheet, pipe scrap, X-ray film, post consumer bailed bottles, film and fibers. The MSH Series comes in 40" (1000mm) and 56" (1400mm) widths, cutting circle diameter of 18", and horsepower options from 100 thru 200 hp.
Colortronic"s MSM2400 Series Central granulators are one of the most versatile central granulators available. Ideally suited for applications including large injection molded parts, blow molded parts, automotive parts, light purgings, furniture and appliance parts, etc.
Colortronic's MSH Heavy Duty central granulators are designed for high capacity central reclamation. They can granulate a wide range of plastic scrap, from low density fiber to thick, high molecular weight purgings, and can be integrated with a variety of handling equipment.
The MSH 3200 Series is designed for heavy duty, high capacity granulation. Ideally suited for applications including heavy extruder purgings, blow molded flashings, thick sheet, pipe scrap, X-ray film, large capacity post consumer products, large blow molded parts (automotive, appliance, furniture, profiles), and packaging film.
Designed for processing plastic waste for reclamation and recycling, large extruder purgings, large reject parts, trim scraps, baled or loose film, synthetic fiber, wood processing scrap, medical waste, cardboard,
paper, and carpet, all of the MXS Series Shredders feature the following:
Today's designers and manufacturers are turning to two shot injection molding, over-molding, co extruded profiles and sequential 3-D blow molding to produce the most cost effective designs.
The Colortronic M 103 Granulators easily reduce anything that comes their way.
