Product Overview

Description

Cutter Technology
Low-friction cutter design with rugged rotary knives and sizing screen
Mounting Options
Heavy-duty fabricated steel construction with split body design and hydraulic cylinder for easy interior access
Construction Materials
Carbon steel; optional stainless steel construction
Features
Processes full bales, sheets, and chips of rubber; minimal heat rise; self-clearing crushing action; optional pneumatic discharge and liquid seals
Description

This unit features a unique low friction design that quickly reduces rubber into small bits without the heat rise associated with other designs that require cooling devices. Material is fed into the unit via conveyor or manually. Rugged rotary knives pull the material into the cutting area and disintegrate the slabs to a size fine enough to pass through a special sizing screen. The reduced particles are then expelled from the bottom of the unit.

VULCANATOR KM10

The KM10 features a motor of up to 60HP (45kw) and can handle various materials including rubber, vinyl, and plastic. Suitable for both new and recycled parts, it's designed for versatility in industrial applications.

VULCANATOR KM30

Equipped with a motor reaching 150HP (110kw), the KM30 is focused on rubber processing. It quickly reduces full bales of rubber to the desired output size, making it an ideal choice for heavy-duty tasks in rubber-related industries.

Both models provide robust solutions for different industrial needs, with the KM10 offering flexibility for multiple materials, and the KM30 emphasizing efficiency in rubber processing.
