METER FEED GRANULATORS

NCM SERIES

SCREENLESS
SLOW SPEED
BESIDE-THE-PRESS
RECYCLING
Compact NCM Series Granulators are ideally suited for metered
robot or conveyor feed beside small injection molding machines.
This quiet, energy efficient granulator features a screenless cutter
housing and ultra-low rotor speed to reduce sprues and runners to
consistently sized granules, virtually free of fines and longs.
Model NCM-2

ULTRA-LOW RPM FOR CLEAN REGRIND
The NCM Series screenless granulators
turn sprues and runners into extremely
uniform granulate with low energy consumption and very little noise.

Multi-tooth rotor
Multi-tooth rotor cleanly reduces sprues and runners to consistent sized
particles. Rotors with D2 teeth and cutting wheels can be re-sharpened.
The automatic reversing option helps to clear obstructed material.

Reduce machine wear; preserve material
When the automatic reversing option is included, the granulator will reverse
rotor rotation up to three times to clear any thick material from the cutting circle
before automatically shutting down. This option eliminates potential damage to
your granulator and cutting blades.
