The Strand
Pelletizing System
WSD is designed for the production of reinforced and filled polymers.
The surface water of the strands is removed by a combination of air blowing and vacuum
before being pelletized. A pair of feed rolls in the dewatering section which are driven
by a variable frequency drive is provided to insure that the strands are pushed across the
vacuum section and into the pelletizer feed rolls.
* Note:
Throughput rates and number of strands are based on .125" (3mm)
strand with a specific gravity of 1.35. Throughputs will vary depending
on the diameter, length of cut, number of strands and their specific
gravity
