Heavy-duty Granulators Offer High Throughput, Single-pass Size Reduction
The GCX Series by Genox offers high throughput and a variety of rotor configurations.
At PTXPO in March, Genox will showcase its granulation and shredding solutions. GXC Series heavy duty granulators are designed for high throughput size reduction of larger sized products in a single pass. These machines can also be employed for secondary granulation when positioned behind pre-shredders in various types of recycling systems. Incorporating various different methods of wear protection such as replaceable wear plates and resistant surface coatings, the GXC machines are suited to processing abrasive, contaminated materials such as glass filled plastics and dirty films containing sands.
