Noise Level Reduction

Rotor Design

Tool-less Maintenance

Noise Level Reduction (Model SGS and SGS-E)
The noise reduction hood consists of an aluminum housing which is lined with noise absorption material. SCHEER BAY has developed special absorption materials (patent pending) with a smooth but rigid surface. No perforated sheet metal is used, resulting in a pellet-free cover.

Rotor Design (Models SGS and SGS-E)
The rotor is driven by a timing belt, not direct, resulting in the following advantages.

• The ideal motor speed range can be achieved by changing the ratio between the motor and rotor pulleys to match the normal strand speed.
• Increased torque at the cutting rotor, e.g. higher power during standard operation. Increased moment of inertia at the cutting rotor, e.g. higher power for sudden overloads (lumps).
• Compact design with small overall-dimentions, as the motor is not placed in line with the rotor shaft.

Tool-less Maintenance (Models SGS and SGS-E)
The pelletizer can be opened without the use of tools. Our unique and patented design permits cleaning between the lower feed roller and bed knife holder. Everything is visible; cleaning and maintenance time is minimized.
