The entire chamber slides out for complete access from one side for easy cleaning and service. The GT1100, capable of granulating webs up to 43 in. wide, will be on display at K.

Rapid Granulator will also present its Rapid Connect product. Rapid Connect is designed for live-feed monitoring and reporting. The system provides recycling machine data to enterprise resource planning software, sending prompt notifications of equipment problems and enabling data analysis of uptime and energy use. Rapid Connect can be installed on any recycling equipment, it does not need to be a rapid brand machine. Multiple machines can be connected to the system to provide an overview of an entire production setup.
