PET PREFORM GRINDING

CMG recycling solutions geared to achieving productivity , quality and operational efficiency .

A PET preform granulator by CMG
dust is generated during transport . In fact , conventional transport systems , where the regrind passes through a fan , are very harmful to the quality of the end product . A further benefit of this vacuum transport system - a proprietary design of CMG - is the total elimination of dust in the surrounding environment .

CMG has launched a new range of PET preform recycling solutions . The numerous innovative and exclusive features of the new machines make it possible to achieve the highest degree of productivity , regrind quality ( dimensional homogeneity of regrind particles and absence of dust ) and operational efficiency , as well as the lowest TCO . The standard configurations of the new range cover production rates of 150 , 250 , 350 , 500 , 700 and 1,000 kg / h . Lower , intermediate or higher rates are also possible . The new CMG family of grinding systems for PET preform recycling
are equipped with integrated feed conveyor with rigid belt , storage hopper and stainless steel sides , metal detector , and feeding chute for the granulator . The feed conveyor is an integral part of the system , no longer a peripheral or auxiliary device , and is controlled from the granulator panel so as to synchronize its operation . All CMG granulators for PET preform applications are manufactured with the best materials and components . The exclusive CMG cutting chamber represents the distinctive feature of the new line . Fully assembled with steel parts manufactured
on numerically controlled machines with accuracy to the hundredth of a millimeter , the high precision in the assembly stage ensures accurate cutting , homogeneity in the size of the regrind particles and no process dust . The PET preform regrind is evacuated via the granulator box positioned under the cutting chamber through a vacuum suction system - another exclusive and valuable feature of the new PET preform solutions . The evacuation through a large steel pipe ensures that the regrind is protected from mechanical stress and that no
INDUSTRY 4.0 READY CMG ’ s new line of PET preform grinding systems comes with integrated controls that monitor all the machine ’ s functions from the moment the preforms are unloaded into the storage hopper of the feed conveyor until the regrind is transported to the collection silos for later use or delivered into big bags for transport / storage . The new control features also include the management of the collection silos level and the automatic selection of a multipleposition filling station for big bags . All CMG PET Preform grinding systems are certified for Industry 4.0 compliance . With headquarters , production operations and a technical center in Italy - and the world ’ s largest distribution network in the field of recycling equipment for PET preforms and bottles - CMG is active worldwide with a network of service and sales centers and local technical skills .
