Terminology

The enclosed area where rotating and stationary knives work together to cut material into smaller pieces.

A perforated metal sheet beneath the cutting chamber that determines the final size of granulated plastic by filtering output. 

The main rotating shaft fitted with blades that cuts material against fixed counter blades.

 A mechanical device that stabilizes rotor speed and stores kinetic energy for smoother operation. 

A machine that reduces plastic waste into uniform granules using high-speed blades and screens.

A machine that finely shreds or pulverizes plastic, similar to a granulator but often optimized for softer materials or fine output.

Motorized rollers that help pull continuous feedstock (film, sheet, web) into the granulator for consistent cutting.
