FEECO’s Disc Pelletizers (also known as pan granulators) are the equipment of choice for converting powdered materials into uniform, round pellets. Disc pelletizers utilize a non-pressure (tumble growth) approach to agglomeration and work by tumbling material on a rotating disc, with a binding agent and feedstock being continuously added. The binding agent causes the fines (or seed pellets, when utilizing a pre-conditioning step) to become tacky and pick up additional fines as the material tumbles against itself. This causes a “growing” action referred to as coalescence. Once pellets have reached the desired size, they exit the rotating disc via centrifugal force. FEATURES Size: 24″ – 25′ (0.6 – 7.5m) 6’ (1.8m) and larger discs are lined with expanded metal to reduce abrasive wear. A hand-wheel operated jacking screw allows for easy adjustment of disc angle. The base and plow support members provide maximum rigidity, while simultaneously allowing rapid disc angle adjustment, without the need for separate plow adjustment. Individually mounted vane-type plows easily control and maintain the product layer over the disc’s entire surface. The pivot base is mounted on heavy-duty, anti-friction bearings. Automatic lubrication is featured on larger discs. Optional Components Reciprocating Scraper Partial Hood Full Hood Stainless Steel Construction Variable Frequency Drive
