Recycling of plastics with 50% energy consumption reduction
All CMG units for Recycling applications, with capacities from 800 kg/h to over 5,000 kg/h, feature the Adaptive Motor Power (AMP) function, unique in the size reduction industry. The granulator is able to autonomously establish which power level to adopt to carry out its work, according to quantity of material to be ground, shape, weight, thickness, type of plastic, and temperature of the piece. The AMP allows to optimize the quality of the regrind material to the maximum (dimensional and physical homogeneity of the regrind particle and absence of dust) and minimize the use of electricity. From 20 to 25 Wh/kg is the small amount of energy that a CMG granulator uses, compared to over 50 Wh/kg that a conventional unit consumes. The ROI for the AMP is less than 12 months.
Robustness and dependability across the line
CMG provides technologies and solutions designed to meet all the unique and innovative demands of the Circular Economy. The post-industrial and post-consumer recycling processes have renewed connotations that aim at the reintroduction of recycled materials in the production processes on large scale. CMG's solutions for the world of recycling include granulators, shredders, integral feed conveyors, evacuation and regrind transport systems, dedusting units, dust management and air filtration. CMG's installed base is considerable: over 30,000 units supplied to its customers in the company's 43 years of activity.
Evoluzione series super granulators for post-consumer recycling
With the new Evoluzione series, CMG presents the EV916 and EV616 models, solutions suitable for the most critical operating conditions, for wet or dry granulation, which require high performance characteristics such as granulation capacity from 2,000 to over 5,000 kg/h, versatility, efficiency and sustainability. The Evoluzione series guarantees operational consistency and wear resistance of a higher degree, with its construction solutions that involve the use of harmonic steel, Hardox and assembled modular structures. In addition to the precision to the hundredth of a millimeter on the construction of the new cutting chamber, which allows a much longer duration of the blades when compared to conventional models, all the Evoluzione are equipped with advanced controls, in the Industry 4.0 style, to make the machine functions 100% monitorable and manageable. Operating temperature, blade wear, productivity, operational efficiency, energy use, all functional parameters managed on the machine or remotely, with connectivity based on the OPC-UA protocol, are just some distinctive features.
High efficiency shredders: TRM1500 with patented blade design
The CMG Granulators patented shredder blade design provides the highest degree of cutting precision. The blade is inserted in a V shaped slot on the rotor. Such assembly provides the highest resistance to mechanical stress and the best cutting performance. Shredding is amongst the initial phases of the recycling process. Post consumer plastics require reduction in size prior to being washed and to go through the secondary sorting phase. Shredding precision allows dimensional homogeneity and absence of small particles. Along with a unique blade design every CMG shredder is equipped with advanced controls to self adjust motor power and rotor RPM, to obtain the highest quality of the shredded plastic with the lowest utilization of energy.
CMG Granulators is one of the very few suppliers of recycling equipment that produces both granulators and shredders. The range of CMG shredders covers small to medium capacity applications, in kg/h: from 200 to 1.500. The TRM series is represented by four models, TRM600, TRM900, TRM1200 and TRM1500, all equipped with the most advanced blade design, covered by patent, and intelligent PLC based controls.
