CMG Granulators: Innovation and High Performance in Post-Consumer Plastics Recycling

Closed loop recycle

In the field of post-consumer plastics recycling, the efficient and sustainable handling of large volumes is essential. CMG, a leading Italian company in the design of size reduction machinery, has effectively addressed this demand by introducing the new Evoluzione and Regrind Evac Systems granulator lines. These innovative solutions not only ensure operational efficiency but also prioritize environmental sustainability.

EV916: The Ultimate Granulator

The flagship of the Evoluzione line is the EV916, the largest granulator in its category, boasting a processing capacity of up to 6,500 kg/h. This powerful granulator features an innovatively designed cutting chamber that enhances performance and minimizes the quantity of dust and micro particles, ensuring the production of a uniform, high-quality end product.

The open-configuration rotor and the blade angle increase the granulation capacity, facilitating the introduction of a greater volume of material into the cutting chamber compared to traditional models. As a result, operational efficiency is improved, and downtime is minimized thanks to a user-friendly maintenance system.

Innovative Dedusting and Evacuation Systems

Alongside the innovative design of the cutting chamber, CMG introduces the Regrind Evac Systems, a series of evacuation and dedusting systems that can handle up to 7,000 kg/h of regrind. These systems operate under negative pressure, eliminating friction and the accumulation of particles along the material path. This process contributes to a reduction of waste and an enhancement of the final product’s quality. Additionally, the automatic filtration system ensures proper management of the collected dust, thus guaranteeing zero environmental pollution.

This technology represents a complete novelty in the industry, enhancing recycling efficiency and minimizing environmental impact, a crucial factor for companies committed to sustainability.

Energy Efficiency at the Highest Level: Adaptive Motor Power

Sustainability goes beyond just reducing dust and particles. CMG has incorporated the Adaptive Motor Power (AMP) technology into its granulators, which autonomously adjusts the required power level according to the quantity and characteristics of the material to be ground. This results in reduced energy consumption, benefiting both the environment and operating costs. Working at a modest 20-25 Wh/kg, as opposed to the 50 Wh/kg of conventional systems, the technology yields a return on investment within less than 12 months.

Supergranulators for Post-Consumer Recycling

With the Evoluzione line, CMG has developed a line of granulators designed to operate effectively in challenging conditions for both dry and wet recycling processes. The models EV916 and EV616 boast a granulating capacity ranging from 2,000 to 6,500 kg/h, making them suitable for any industrial application.

The machines are made of high-quality materials such as spring steel and Hardox, ensuring operational consistency and wear resistance. Additionally, the cutting chamber is constructed with millimeter accuracy, guaranteeing a long service life for the blades.

Towards Industry 4.0

CMG surpasses mechanical innovation with its Evoluzione granulators, featuring advanced Industry 4.0-style controls. These controls facilitate the management and monitoring of operating parameters directly on the machine and remotely via OPC-UA connectivity. This ensures optimized management of productivity, blade wear, and energy consumption while also enabling timely intervention to improve operational efficiency.

Reliable Global Service

With its headquarters in Italy and a global network of service and distribution centres, CMG provides the highest level of technical support to its customers, guaranteeing maximum reliability and availability of spare parts.

For anyone operating in post-consumer plastics recycling, CMG Granulators’ solutions set a standard for performance, efficiency, and sustainability within the industry.
