Rapid 150 Series beside-the-press granulator

Rapid 150 series is a small high-performance granulator that is primarily intended for "beside the press" recycling of sprues and defective small products. Immediate grinding directly at the production machine allows the regrind to be returned directly to the process. It raises the product quality and avoids accumulation of sprues and reject products.

DeltaTECH - standard models with flexibility

Rapid 150 DeltaTECH is the most dynamic product line within the 150 series. With 7 different models and a wide range of standard options, each model can be tailor-made to each application.

PowerTECH - configured for filled/abrasive materials

The PowerTECH line is specifically developed for filled and abrasive materials. It is optimized for long-lasting wear resistance and top quality regrind - no compromises!

Constant Cutting Circle (CCC)

Rapid granulators and shredders deliver precise, consistent cuts every time. This design ensures even wear, improved efficiency and reduced energy consumption, making our machines durable, reliable and ideal for heavy-duty applications.

Recycled material with properties of virgin resin

Knives of the highest quality and Rapid's unique knife placement that maintains a constant distance between the screen and the housing help produce regrind with properties equivalent to virgin raw material. You can feed the granulated material directly back into the process without any intermediate storage, drying, etc.

The goal of all recycling is to get a regrind that has uniform size distribution with minimal dust and fine particles. Rapid's 150 series fully supports "Closed Loop Operation" for best production yield.

Easy cleaning

Easy cleaning and easy maintenance are fundamental demands for the Rapid 150 series. Instant access to all components provides easy cleaning when changing e.g. material or colours.

Staggered cassette knives

Staggered and angled placement of knives on the rotor allows more cuts per revolution. More cuts in turn produce a much smoother and energy-efficient granulation that results in a regrind with smooth edges and melting properties equivalent to virgin raw material.

A special manufacturing process and the use of high-quality steel help ensure the small cassette knives have a very long service life. And when it is time to change knives, it's a quick and hassle-free process.
