Screen Classifying Cutter Controls Particle Sizes

The SCC-15B screen classifying cutter cuts hard, soft, and fibrous materials into controlled particle sizes from granules down to 20-30 mesh with minimal fines, at rates to 500 cu ft/h. The proprietary helical rotor design with dozens of cutter heads attached to a helical array of staggered holders called "interconnected parallelograms" continuously shear oversize materials against twin, stationary bed knives. Carbide-tipped cutter heads along the entire shaft, with no frontal gaps between the tips, cut the product into uniform pieces with minimum fines and imperfections in the granulate, with little to no heat generation. The cutter has a 15-in. throat width and can be fitted with 30 parallelograms with 60 cutter inserts. Bed screen perforations range from 1/32 to 1½ in. in diam, and up to 3 in. square. The cutter is available in industrial, abrasion-resistant, stainless steel, and food-grade construction. Munson Machinery Company, Inc., Utica, NY 800-944-6644 www.munsonmachinery.com
